What the? It's already 2022, don't you know what car to buy in the new year? If you are having such doubts and entanglements at the moment, then you may wish to take a look at the 3 new cars we recommend today. I believe that after reading them, your goal of buying a car in 2022 will be clearer. Without further ado, let me take stock of the 3 most worthwhile new cars in 2022.
The first, the all-new Ford Mondeo
Time to market: Within 2022
Just yesterday, Ford China finally officially released a new generation of Mondeo models, as a classic American mid-size sedan, the previous Mondeo with a unique "Aston Martin" family front face and the public is well known, if not the model sales cycle has been very long (sold in China for 9 years), I believe the world will still buy the old Ford Mondeo model.
Seeing the new model, the new Mondeo adopts Ford's latest "potential energy aesthetic" family design concept, and the overall style looks highly similar to the previous Ford EVOS model. Of course, since it's a sedan, the visual center of gravity of the new Mondeo looks low. In addition, the forward air grille of the front face of the new car adopts a 3D parametric scale armor grille, and it has a breathing undulating design, which is also a major attraction.
The sides are what I think look best, it looks very powerful, and the double waistline design also makes the new car look heavy and heavy. In addition, the new car also uses hidden door handles, which makes it look more technological. In terms of size, the length, width and height of the new generation of Mondeo are 4935/1875/1500mm, and the wheelbase is 2945mm, which is larger than the overall size of the current model, of which the wheelbase is close to the higher level of Ford Taurus, so its internal space performance should be no problem.
The tail of the car continues the short tail design, the overall sense of hierarchy is good, and the family taillight group shape complements the Ford Mustang, which to a certain extent highlights a strong sporty atmosphere. The interior has not yet been announced, but the power will be equipped with a 2.0T engine with a maximum power of 238 horsepower, and the transmission is a matching 8-speed automatic transmission. In addition, the new car can be filled with No. 92 gasoline, so the cost of daily use will also be reduced.
In short, after waiting for a long time, the new generation of Mondeo is finally officially unveiled. From the appearance point of view, this new Mondeo can be described as a "rebirth" like a change, not only looks newer and more fashionable, the aura of the whole vehicle is also very good. Coupled with its standard 2.0T engine, so as long as it can have a reasonable price after the listing, I believe it can be sold hot, let's wait and see.
The second model, the new generation of Volkswagen Lingdu L
Lingdu is also a 7-year-old model that has not been replaced, and also yesterday, SAIC Volkswagen released a new generation of Lingdu L models. As a replacement model, the new car is based on the MQB Evo platform, so whether it is in terms of design or human-computer interaction system, the new Lingdu L can be described as a comprehensive renewal. Therefore, such a blockbuster model is naturally worth our attention to in 2022.
In terms of appearance, the new Lingdu has been equipped with a new front face shape, whether it is a large-size grille or a flexible headlight, it seems to be telling the world: I am a brand new model. The side waistline is very stretched, and the door adopts a frameless door design, so there is also a sports car model. In terms of size, the new Lingdu L has a length, width and height of 4784/1831/1469mm, and a wheelbase of 2731mm, which is also a largeR A+ class sedan.
A new style of through-type taillight group is adopted at the rear of the car to echo the through-type light group at the front of the car. In addition, the logo of LAMANDO L also appears below the brand LOGO, which looks relatively coordinated. In addition, it is worth mentioning that the new Lingdu L adopts a hatchback tailgate design, which is not available in the previous generation of models, so it is also an eye-catching configuration.
Coming to the car, the new Lingdu adopts the same integrated screen design as the new golf, and the overall look of technology is still good, and I look forward to surprising people in terms of the fluency of the system that is actually used. In addition, the air conditioner outlet is also a penetrating design, the value is quite high, that is, the later need to be diligently taken care of, otherwise it will be full of dust. The seat looks very wrapped, and the materials used are of a high standard.
In terms of power, the new Lingdu will continue to provide 1.4T models (280TSI) for consumers to choose from, with a maximum power of 150 horsepower and a maximum torque of 250 Nm, and the transmission will be matched with a 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission in the form of an electronic shift lever. As for the new 1.5T engine, there is no news that it will be mounted on the new Lingdu L. In general, the new Lingdu L changes are very large, and we hope that SAIC Volkswagen can give sincerity in pricing, and our friends who like this car may wish to continue to pay attention to it.
The third paragraph, the mid-term reform of Volkswagen Sagittarius
This generation of Sagitar has been on sale for several years, so during the 2021 Guangzhou Auto Show, FAW-Volkswagen also officially unveiled the mid-term revamp sagittarius model. However, since the new 1.5T engine has not yet been officially assembled on the new model in large quantities, the new Sagittarius Volkswagen, which has been redesigned in the medium term, will not be officially launched until 2022.
Specifically, the appearance of the new Volkswagen Sagitar is not very much changed, but the front grille position of the front of the car has been modified and the internal structure of the headlight cavity has been redesigned. In addition, more changes are on the taillights, and the internal structure of the taillights has been adjusted, while adding a total of two chrome exhaust decorations on both sides.
In terms of interior, the new Sagitar has been equipped with a new style of suspension central control screen, with a full LCD dashboard, the overall look is still more youthful and full of technology. In addition, the air outlet of the new Sagitar also adopts a penetrating design, which does seem to improve the integrity and atmosphere of the car a lot, but the shortcomings are the same as the new Lingdu L, and after a long daily use, it is a "hidden ash artifact", and the owners need to take care of it more diligently.
In terms of power, the new Sagitar will continue to be equipped with two four-cylinder engines of 1.2T and 1.4T, with a maximum power of 116 hp and 150 hp respectively, and the transmission is a matching 5-speed manual and 7-speed dry-clutch transmission. In addition, the new 1.5T EVO engine will also be the first to be installed on the new Sagitar. The engine has a maximum power of 160 horsepower, and the biggest technical highlight is the use of the "Variable Section Turbine Technology VTG", which has been used in the Turbo model of the Porsche 911, so it is worth looking forward to.
Finally, if you want to buy a pure German higher quality sedan, then the new Sagitar can wait. Judging from the situation after the mid-term redesign, the appearance of the new Sagitar keeps up with the trend, which makes it look more atmospheric. The interior as a whole has also become younger and more vibrant, plus the new 1.5T engine, so as long as the price is reasonable, then it will obviously be a good choice for you to buy a new car in 2022.
Well, these are the 3 blockbuster cars that will be launched in 2022, are you looking forward to or disappointed in the arrival of these models? Are you willing to pay for them in the new year? Leave a message in the comment area below, let's discuss it together. (Text/Univision Auto Dazhuo)
