Recently, the pre-sale price of SAIC Volkswagen's new Lingdu L was exposed online, as well as some configuration information. According to this information, the new Lingdu L (previously the official online collection name, the highest number of votes - spicy steamed buns!) The pre-sale price of the exposure is 15.20-192,000 yuan, which is slightly higher than the pre-price of the current model, but it is not excluded that the official price will be lower than the pre-sale price.
As a new replacement model, the overall innovation of Lingdu L is still relatively thorough, and the bezel-less door + hatchback rear tailgate design makes it more in line with the positioning of the wide-body luxury coupe of that year.
In terms of design, the new car adopts Volkswagen's latest design language, and the entire front face shows Volkswagen's slightly "smiley face", which is extremely rare. After all, this kind of "smiley face" design has appeared in the Japanese brand coupe/sports car type in the past.
According to the configuration information exposed this time, the new car will be divided into four versions: slightly spicy version, medium spicy version, heavy spicy version, and super spicy flagship version, of which the low-end model version is more worthy of recommendation. It is commendable that the 152,000 yuan micro-spicy version has been standard equipped with bezel-less doors, large hatchback tailgates, keyless entry/start, 10-inch LCD instruments/central control large screens, through-line rear taillights, electronic gear handles, reversing images, electric folding exterior mirrors/parking automatic folding, front side airbags/side air curtains, 17-inch aluminum alloy wheels, 6 speakers, adaptive headlights, multi-function steering wheels, ramp assist, automatic parking and other configurations.
The medium and spicy version of the model is equipped with a panoramic sunroof, ACC adaptive cruise, AEB active brake, leather seat, leather steering wheel, lane keeping assist, electric adjustment of the main seat / waist support, rear central armrest, traffic sign recognition, etc.
The spicy version and the super spicy flagship version have more intelligent technology equipment, such as atmosphere lights, mobile phone wireless charging, headlight/tail light dynamic welcome effect, matrix LED headlights, HUD head-up display, front seat/steering wheel heating, Beats 8 speakers and so on.
Of course, the most recommended version is still a low-end model. Because from the perspective of the optional configuration list, the overall optional price is still very cost-effective, such as the sunroof is 3500 yuan, the ACC + AEB + leather steering wheel is 2500 yuan, the 17-inch gun gray wheel is only 300 yuan, the driver assistance system is 800 yuan, the steering wheel heating is 800 yuan, and the HUD head-up display is 300 yuan. So, if you don't need much of a tech-based configuration and only need some practical equipment, then a look at the list of options can meet your daily use.
According to the current information, the new Lingdu L is still only equipped with the 1.4T engine of the EA211, with a maximum horsepower of 150Ps, a maximum torque of 250N·m, and a 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission in the transmission system. The 1.5T engine we are looking forward to will be the first to be installed with the new Sagittarius engine.
At last:
In the past, Volkswagen has launched the most beautiful coupe Volkswagen CC, as well as the most handsome sports car Shangku, as well as the classic Beetle. But with the development of the automotive market and the change of consumer demand, these models have gradually faded out of our vision or been discontinued. As a public that has not added new personalities for many years, it is difficult to make a breakthrough if it does not seek change in the rapidly changing Chinese market.
Nowadays, the new generation of Lingdu L (spicy steamed buns) is seeking changes in design, and the styling is more than a frameless door + hatchback tailgate that a coupe model should have, which can be described as full of sincerity. As far as the currently exposed pre-sale price is concerned, the overall cost performance is still relatively low. After all, in today's compact market, there are also Civic/Type Grid, Lynk & Co 03, Shadow Leopard, MG6 Pro, and Changan UNI-V, which has just been listed with electric tails, and the price has reached 100,000-150,000 yuan, and the competition is still very fierce. If the new Lingdu L wants to seize a sufficient user base in this market segment, then it must have sincerity in terms of price. In addition, more really like this model, so it is recommended to wait, after all, volkswagen's products in the later stage of the offer, or very objective.
