A few days ago, Volkswagen Kanche learned from relevant channels that the Wuling Capgemini Hybrid Edition may be mass-produced in the second half of the year. It is reported that the car may be equipped with a hybrid system composed of a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine, an electric motor and a battery pack, and the price may start at 140,000 after listing, with better fuel economy performance.
Judging from the news previously exposed, the internal project code name of the Wuling Capgemini 2.0L hybrid version is "CN220M HEV", and the matching LJM20A engine has been delivered around February last year, when the new car has entered the test car manufacturing stage, so the mass production time in the second half of this year is very reasonable.
As for the appearance, the Wuling Capgemini hybrid version model is the same as the ordinary version of the model, and the whole series adopts a six-seat layout of 2+2+2. When not needed, the third row of seats can be fully integrated into the platform, forming a flat trunk space, further enhancing the storage capacity in the car.
In terms of power, the engine thermal efficiency of the Wuling Capgemini 2.0L hybrid version is 39%, which may have Atkinson cycle, DVVT, external EGR and other technologies, and it is expected that the fuel consumption may be reduced to between 5.5-6L/100km, and the current comprehensive fuel consumption of Capgemini 1.5T+CVT models is 7.6L/100km. More news about the new car, Volkswagen Kanche will continue to report.
