More than a decade ago, FAW-Volkswagen introduced Sagitar to the market, opening the curtain on the high-quality family car market, and in the past many years, Sagitar, which has continued to maintain a high price, has also achieved excellent sales results in the market.
Throughout 2020, Sagitar successfully seized the high position of the compact sedan market with an annual sales volume of 300,000, and became a benchmark product in this market with excellent design, craftsmanship and deeply rooted brand value.
In fact, people who buy Sagitar have their own ideas, and their pursuit of quality is far greater than their attachment to price.
The current Sagitar is indeed very attractive, but in order to continue to ensure the market heat, FAW-Volkswagen has unveiled a new Sagitar as early as last year's Guangzhou Auto Show.
In terms of technical standards, the new Sagitar is still an A+ level benchmark product, with the size and space ahead of the same level of products, while further optimizing the power architecture and scientific and technological performance, bringing more attractive product power.
Core highlight one: longer, larger body size
In terms of size, the new Sagitar body length has been increased to 4791mm, which is longer than the size of the current model, which is destined to have further upgrades in terms of seating space, especially the trunk space has been optimized, not only the visual effect is better, but also the convenience of daily use has been improved.
If analyzed from the traditional definition standard, the new Sagitar with a size of nearly 4 meters 8 can already be divided into mid-level cars, which also means that it has the core strength to single-handedly mid-level cars.
After all, the domestic user group still has a unique dependence on large-size cars, and the sagittarius body size is moving towards 4 meters 8 levels, which is destined to be more attractive than other compact cars.
Core highlight two: intelligent, interior technology is more sufficient
The upcoming new Sagitar not only has better dimensions, but also has a transformative and upgraded interior technology.
From a technical point of view, the new car is equipped with a 12-inch central control screen with more vivid colors, smoother operation and larger size, which can be turned on and off by touch to enable the opening and closing of some functions of the Travel Assist L2 level automatic driving assistance system. This means that whether it is an intelligent entertainment system or an autonomous driving assist function, the new Sagitar will become "Internet-based".
For example, the new car is equipped with an advanced adaptive cruise system that can solve the pain points of high-speed cruise, and the automatic parking assistance system that solves the parking difficulties of some users and the pre-collision protection system to ensure safety are also the same, and the emergence of these configurations will allow Sagitar to have the same scientific and technological intelligent performance as the mainstream new power electric vehicle.
For users, the emergence of these configurations will make Sagitar more technological and smarter, an advantage that is not available in the same level of products. Of course, the upgrade of the intelligent technology system is not only this, the 12-inch central control screen not only supports intelligent navigation, but also can carry out intelligent control of the car, voice recognition, which greatly strengthens the sense of science and technology of the whole vehicle.
All along, the traditional joint venture's intelligent technology performance is not mainstream enough, mainly reflected in the lack of intelligent product interaction, automatic driving assistance system, this generation of sagitar to make up for the shortcomings of automatic driving, but also bring a better intelligent cockpit experience.
For example, you can use a sentence to summon navigation, use mobile phones to intelligently interconnect with the car machine system, and realize automatic parking, which we can only see in the new forces in the past, and now see in the traditional and strong joint venture giants, which will inevitably attract more young consumers.
The change in this aspect alone has actually transformed Sagitar, and its upgrade is far more than that.
Core highlight three: 1.5T debut, lower fuel consumption and better experience
The market has been looking forward to the long-awaited 1.5T engine on the Sagitar, this engine compared to the 1.4T engine energy saving effect is better, the data test results show that its fuel saving effect increased by 10%-15%, that is to say, under the premise of ensuring better power, further reduce fuel consumption through technical optimization.
Yes, although the engine displacement is larger, the fuel consumption is lower.
Better fuel economy is due to Volkswagen's use of more difficult, advanced APS coatings to reduce friction and the use of Miller cycles to intrinsically improve efficiency from the job, while using more costly variable-section turbines to improve response speed.
This engine has a thermal efficiency of 37.5%, with faster gear changes, matching better dual-clutch transmission, 1.5T with dual-clutch transmission powertrain two major advantages are: fast running, less use.
It is worth mentioning that the 1.5T EA211 EVO engine is needless to say because it fundamentally does a good job of thermal efficiency and emissions.
This also means that the upcoming new Sagitar will be the largest, lowest fuel consumption and most balanced acceleration in this class. Compared with the Honda Civic with the same power level, the fuel consumption is higher than sagittarius's 5.7L 100 kilometers in size that is much smaller than sagitar.
Obviously, the new Sagitar, which continues to upgrade its powertrain, still has a stronger competitiveness than its peers.
It is reported that the new Sagitar will land on the market in May this year, for FAW-Volkswagen, the new Sagitar to the market will inevitably ignite a new round of car buying boom, the new Sagitar launched in May will use the fully upgraded sense of technology, power architecture for its more sales.
The new Sagitar landing in the market will not only grab a large number of A-class competitors market share, but also swallow up a part of the B-class car market through larger size and better sense of technology.
For young consumers, this new Sagitar, which is about to land on the market, is worth waiting.
