Passat's "little brother" finally arrived, with a wheelbase of 2731mm and frameless doors

In the SAIC Volkswagen car market, passat is undoubtedly the most well-known, because it was listed early, and has always been locked in high-end business groups, which can be called the benchmark in the joint venture car camp. And some of the entry is Langyi, although the title of Tokuhara Lang makes its identity not pure, but after upgrading the MQB platform, pure mass technology can not be faulted. However, the problem is that the current domestic consumer group is mainly young people, and the positioning of the more sports style can gain an advantage in the future market competition, so SAIC Volkswagen can only be competent in Lingdu.

At the end of January this year, we also saw the release of SAIC Volkswagen's new Lingdu L, the new car is based on the MQB EVO platform, not only the platform EVO, but also the addition of L in the name, which shows that the product strength of the whole vehicle has been qualitatively improved. After 7 years, Lingdu finally ushered in a replacement, to be honest, many young consumers are still more concerned, because the listing of the first Lingdu is self-proclaimed as a wide-body coupe, and now it is to sit on the title of true fragrance coupe within 200,000, and it definitely needs a more sporty design to meet more discerning young consumers, can it be done? At present, the new Lingdu L has not yet been listed, but some 4S stores also have existing cars, so today we are also fortunate to experience, let's talk to you.

Starting from the design, some people say that the new Lingdu L adopts a style similar to the ID. series, which can be seen that the design of the new car has changed greatly, because the ID. series as a new energy model, the style used is naturally more advanced and avant-garde, and it is easier to attract the attention of young consumers. In the past face shape, for example, the grille was designed under the front surround, which is just the opposite of the traditional fuel model, and then the grille interior also adopts a dot matrix treatment, which enhances the sense of refinement. The upper is a penetrating LED strip, with a luminous brand logo, which also has excellent recognition during the day, and the sharper shape of the two sides of the headlight group also applies an IQ.Light matrix LED light source, and the lighting effect is also first-class.

Based on the new platform to build, the name of the new Lingdu L has shown that its size will be significantly improved, 4784 * 1831 * 1469mm of length, width and height and 2731mm wheelbase, compared to the current model can be described as a big circle, a leap to reach the mainstream level of A+ class, in the face of Sagittarius, Civic and other competitors are also invincible, can meet the higher requirements for space. At the same time, thanks to the size upgrade, the body visual effect of the new Lingdu L is also more slender and coordinated, not to mention that the new car also adopts the sneakback body that only coupes have, and the sports model is naturally in place. It is worth mentioning that the biggest highlight of the new Lingdu L is the frameless door application, which is the essence of pure coupe, so it calls itself a 200,000-year-old true incense coupe, not exaggerated.

Compared with the front of the car, the overall style of the rear design is more convergent, and the angular lines are used to outline, showing the consistent tough temperament of the Volkswagen family. However, the application of the through-type tail light group still improves a certain degree of recognition, especially in the application of the full LED light source, the dynamic effect when lighting is the highlight, quite a sense of ceremony and grade, and the Japanese competitors are not good. In addition, the new car also adopts a hatchback tailgate because of the slip-back body design, and the opening angle is larger.

Once inside, if you want a design that's as subversive as it looks, the new Lingdu L won't disappoint you. Thanks to the application of the MQB EVO platform, the new car adopts the latest design ideas of the Volkswagen family, and adopts a dual screen like the new Golf, which is also the first model of SAIC Volkswagen to apply the design, and the technology atmosphere is full. In addition to the double screen, there are more soft materials and stitching decorations, as well as through-type air conditioning air outlets and 30-color atmosphere lights, this time to see the exquisite and compact electronic gear, personally feel that within 200,000 joint venture cars, Lingdu L details can withstand scrutiny.

At present, the new car has not been officially listed, so there is not much eyebrow about the specific configuration information, but according to the official previous introduction, as well as the 4S store real car experience, the current mainstream functions are not absent. For example, the dual screen just mentioned is composed of a 10.25-inch full LCD instrument and a 12-inch central control screen, and the high-end model also provides an AR-HUD head-up display system, which is also a three-screen linkage. The car machine system is a MOS 3.2 system, which also meets the basic interconnection experience and the fluency is not bad. As for the safety configuration, the L2 level driver assistance system is not absent, but it is expected to be exclusive to the high-end version.

Briefly talk about the riding experience, because the experience of the real car is all static aspects, not to mention the new Lingdu L size upgrade is obvious. First of all, the manufacturer said that the new car seat is a shell-type sports wrapping seat, which adopts a black, red and gray matching scheme, which does look like a good sense of sport, and the actual riding is more wrapped. The real-time model should belong to the high-end, with multi-directional electric adjustment, heating and ventilation functions, of course, the front seat space is no problem, and the head is relatively punched more than one point. When the front row is guaranteed to remain unchanged, the head is just one punch, but the leg reaches two and a half punches, which is still for adult men who are 1.8 meters tall.

Finally, the power, the new Lingdu L is still equipped with a 1.4T engine, the maximum power is 110kW, the maximum torque is 250N·m, matching the 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, and the suspension is still a separate combination of front and rear. From the official data, this set of power can allow the new car to have an acceleration of 8.2 seconds, but also has a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.92L, which is to take into account the fuel economy and meet the performance needs of daily transportation, and can also be calmly coped with in the face of the Civic 1.5T.
