The most popular in our domestic market is the SUV model, but for the two-tire, three-child family or consumers with business reception needs, buying an MPV model will be more suitable, like Honda Odyssey, Accent, Buick GL8, Toyota Saina, etc., are very popular joint venture players, and Volkswagen's Weiran positioning is a medium and large MPV, sales performance is not very eye-catching, in order to further enhance product competitiveness, the new Weiran will be officially listed on March 13, At present, many 4S stores already have real cars, so what changes have been made to the new models?
First of all, in terms of appearance, the new Weiran continues the design language of the current model, after all, this is not a complete replacement, the front face adopts a U-shaped grille similar to volkswagen Touareg, the interior is filled with a number of banner chrome trims, and is connected with the left and right headlights, not only looks very delicate, but also widens the horizontal visual effect, and the lamp cavity is equipped with lenses, using LED light sources.
The length, width and height of the vehicle are 5346 * 1976 * 1781mm, the wheelbase reaches 3180mm, from the side view of the lower body height, the roof tilt angle is smooth and natural, more like the combination of MPV and station wagon, with some cross-border styles, the new Weiran will be equipped with electric sliding doors, the style of the wheel hub is also very textured.
The rear does not adopt a similar one-size-fits-all design approach like most other MPVs, so it does not look like there will be a déjà vu of the van, the chrome trim strips on both sides of the Volkswagen logo logo are perfectly combined with the taillights, and the bright red LED light source inside the light group is very beautiful after lighting, and the bottom uses a bilateral two-out exhaust, but the real exhaust cylinder is hidden under the car, and all we see is chrome decoration.
The new Weiran in the interior can bring us some freshness, shades of color to create the atmosphere on the grade, the center console slightly biased to the driver's side, a variety of functions to operate more conveniently, equipped with a 12-inch suspension touch LCD screen, will be more scientific and technological than the current model, the car system supports voice recognition control, mobile phone interconnection and mapping, etc., and the LCD instrument screen is clear, can display a wealth of vehicle information.
Flat-bottom sports multi-function steering wheel is of moderate size, comfortable to hold, but also equipped with a delicate and compact electronic gear bar, in addition to the hollow design under the gear bar, other places have more storage space, we often use things are easy to find a suitable location for storage.
The car still adopts a 2+2+3 7-seat layout, the second row of two independent seats is very comfortable, equipped with central armrests and leg rests, long-distance rides are not easy to get tired, but the overhead space is a decent performance in the same level.
There is a passage in the middle of the second row, it is easier to enter the third row, and the legroom in the third row is better than many models of the same level, and the ride comfort can also be, but the overhead space is enough to use the level, in the case of a full load of 7 people, the new Weiran trunk is still relatively large, practical and strong.
In terms of power, the new Weiran will continue to be equipped with a high-power 2.0T turbocharged engine, of which the low-power version (330TSI) has a maximum power of 186 horsepower, the high-power version (380TSI) has a maximum power of 220 horsepower, the maximum torque is 320 Nm and 350 Nm, the transmission part, matching the 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, the chassis adopts the front McPherson, rear multi-link independent suspension.
In general, the new Weiran this time is mainly the upgrade of the interior and the increase in configuration, this medium and large MPV has certain advantages in terms of size, but due to the high pricing of the current model, coupled with many people on the Internet questioning that it is an MPV model changed by an SUV, so the sales performance and Buick GL8 have a big gap, as for whether this time can rely on the modification to increase sales, now no one dares to make a judgment, let's wait and see.
