If you still have an impression of the previous generation of Volkswagen Lingdu, I think it must be "luxurious wide-body coupe".
It is difficult to say whether the marketing of the first generation of Volkswagen Lingdu was successful or unsuccessful, since its release, everyone has left a very deep impression on the term "luxury wide-body coupe", and The popularity of Lingdu has also begun.
But as a compact sedan with a sporty positioning, Lingdu does not seem to have much to do with "luxury" and "coupe", and you can only say that its width will be wider than that of competitors of the same level.
So when everyone talks about Lingdu, more often than not, it may just be to play with the terrier. Of course, with the release of a new generation of Volkswagen Lingdu, these old terriers will also become a thing of the past.
First of all, as a replacement model, the exterior and interior of the new Lingdu must have been redesigned. I personally feel that its appearance does have the feel of the Ferrari 812 Superfast or Portofino, and the upper grille and headlight set create a more personal and sporty look.
The upgrade of the interior may be more conventional, and like other new generation Volkswagen models, the new Lingdu has been equipped with a continuous screen, and the overall design of the interior is more simplified.
In addition, the new generation of Lingdu not only lengthened the body and became Lingdu L, but also incorporated more elements of coupe models, such as frameless doors and rear tailgates. Therefore, in terms of appearance, the new generation of Lingdu is indeed closer to the positioning of the coupe, which is obviously different from other compact models of Volkswagen.
However, because of the addition of these elements, I predict that the pricing of the new generation of Volkswagen Lingdu may be higher than that of the previous generation, and the starting price may be more than 160,000. Of course, the competition for sports compact cars is also becoming more and more fierce, so Volkswagen may also "increase the amount without increasing the price" and give a surprising price.
