In 2015, SAIC Volkswagen launched a coupe model, the Lingdu, which is actually not so important to SAIC Volkswagen, but is only a product of the market segment. In that era, SAIC Volkswagen had Langyi for home, Passat for business, and the SUV Tiguan was also in the year of the fight, and coupes like Lingdu did not seem to have much market.
But after all, 7 years have passed, and consumer demand for cars has also changed. Nowadays, rejecting mediocrity and advocating individuality has become the theme of young people in society, and in recent years, Lingdu has also begun to receive more and more attention, and sales have also increased significantly.
So this year SAIC Volkswagen released a new generation of Lingdu L, this car is aimed at the young market, overall Lingdu L compared to Lingdu is indeed a great upgrade, but where is the upgrade?
From the perspective of a photography enthusiast, the Lingdu L is currently the most avant-garde fuel vehicle designed by SAIC Volkswagen. Especially in the front part, the design is more in line with the current coupe style. The most impressive thing about the front face of the whole vehicle is Volkswagen's new dot-shaped grille, which is larger in size and has a visual impact, although we have seen it on the new Passat, but in order to make Lingdu L more youthful, on the basis of the original new Passat, the intake grille of Lingdu L also adopts some of the youthful design of the ID family, so that the front face of the whole car appears more youthful and more vibrant.
In order to make the whole car more youthful, in addition to the IQlight light group, Lingdu L is also equipped with a front-through LED light strip, which is combined with the Volkswagen LOGO, which can also be lit up at night, coupled with the wide-body design of Lingdu L, and the fashion sense and sense of power of the whole car similar to the front hood outlined by the vest line are very outstanding.
The side is obvious that Lingdu L adopts a sneaky back design, which is also a must-have design as a coupe, the overall side lines are dynamic, smooth, sporty style, with 18-inch Dunlop tires, the overall sports visual sense is excellent.
The tail also adopts a new design, the overall rhythm is very strong, and the light group part also adopts a similar Tiguan X wide light strip design, and adopts a red through tail light. The trunk also uses a hatchback trunk, which reminds me of the previous Octavia RS.
In general, Lingdu L has made a major breakthrough in the appearance of the previous generation of Lingdu, especially the four-door car windows have adopted a borderless design, which greatly improves the style of the coupe, if the price is reasonable, the value part is very high.
If you want to say what the biggest trough point of Lingdu was before, it must be space. The reason why Lingdu L is called Lingdu L, its space has been greatly improved. The wheelbase alone reached 2731mm, which is not inferior in compact models.
In the actual ride, the adult man who is 1 meter 8 tall still has two punches in the leg, but due to the influence of the back shape, the head space is only one punch, but for most of the elderly and children, this space is enough. Moreover, the rear row of Lingdu L also adopts two charging modes of USB and TYPE-C (the front row is also), which is relatively reasonable.
The interior changes are also great, Lingdu L adopts a new interior design - Volkswagen also uses the integrated screen, the size of the LCD dashboard has been further improved to 10 inches, the central touch screen is 12 inches, and Volkswagen has also adopted a new car machine system, which is faster and supports voice control, and also supports L2 level automatic driving.
And the overall interior design is relatively simple, smooth and full of sports style, the overall black interior is very capable, and the gear lever also uses Volkswagen's new electronic gear lever, which is very small. More noteworthy is that the multi-function steering wheel also cancels the physical buttons, using touch buttons, the overall sense of technology is still very unique.
Since the car, like the Audi A3, comes from the MQB Evo platform, it uses the same 1.4T engine as the A3, which has a maximum horsepower of 150 hp, a peak torque of 250 Nm, and a transmission system with faster shifting of dry dual-clutch transmissions. The chassis suspension system is a combination of front McPherson rear multi-link independent suspension, which shows that this owner is still playing sports and handling. The only regret is that there is no test drive, I don't know if it is the same as the Audi A3L.
Write at the end:
It is undeniable that SAIC Volkswagen has put a lot of thought into Lingdu L, and this Volkswagen coupe, which is jokingly called "spicy steamed buns" by netizens, is still a bit flavorful. Both the appearance and configuration are in line with the current mainstream models, focusing on attacking the young coupe market. The wide space also brings Lingdu L some household attributes.
But personally think that the co-driver of this car is not installed with electric adjustment is a small regret, especially considering that the co-driver generally rides more women, electric adjustment will be more in line with the needs of women, but in addition to this Lingdu L as a joint venture coupe has been very powerful, if the pricing is reasonable, it will get more attention, personally expect the high-power version of Lingdu L to be priced at about 170,000, the low-power version is expected to be priced at 150,000 yuan, specific or wait until the official listing to know the answer.
