In the past, if you want to buy a medium-sized SUV for 350,000, any hesitation for a second is disrespectful to the Volkswagen Tuang. But now, in this segment, there are many strong "upstarts", such as the sales of ideal ONE in recent months, which has been "crushing" Tuang. Then again, putting Tuon and the ideal ONE together, who is stronger? Today we will make a comprehensive comparison to see who is more "advanced"!
(Volkswagen Tuon)
(Ideal ONE)
In order to ensure relative fairness, we have selected the 2022 380TSI four-wheel drive premium luxury edition Volkswagen Tuon (guide price: 342,000) and the 2021 6-seater version of the ideal ONE (guide price: 338,000). Well, without further ado, let's go straight to the comparison session.
Regarding the appearance part, because everyone's aesthetic standards are different, the author will not do too much analysis here, and briefly talk about a feeling that the two cars gave me. Both Tuon and Ideal ONE belong to the more domineering category, but the Ideal ONE with a large grille and Star Ring LED headlights looks younger and more personal.
In terms of size, volkswagen Tuon has a length, width and height of 5052/1989/1773mm and a wheelbase of 2980mm, respectively, while the ideal ONE has a length, width and height of 5030/1960/1760mm and a wheelbase of 2935mm. In terms of data, Tuon's internal space advantage is greater, is that really the case?
Taking the author, who is 178cm tall, as an example, sitting in two cars, you can feel that the space of Tuang is indeed a little larger, which is reflected in the leg space in the third row. However, the ideal ONE can enter and exit the third row more conveniently, directly through the central passage, while Tuon has to fold the second row of seats to enter the third row. Of course, Tuon can also choose 6 seats, at which time users can also enter the third row through the central passage of the independent seat.
However, in terms of seats, the performance of the ideal ONE is also better than that of Tuon, which is specifically manifested in terms of functionality. For example, in the front row, Tuon only has seat heating, main driver's seat memory, while the ideal ONE adds ventilation, massage and "boss button".
In the second row of seats, Tuon only has a heating function, while the ideal ONE has more functions such as massage, waist adjustment, and electric adjustment.
Looking up, we can find that both Tuang and Ideal ONE are equipped with a large panoramic sunroof as standard, which can ensure sufficient lighting in the car. It is worth mentioning that the ideal ONE is the whole car soundproof glass, while Tuon is not.
In the third row of seats, ideal ONE and Touron are quite detail-oriented, and they are equipped with cup holders on the left and right sides to facilitate the placement of water glasses for passengers in the third row. However, a closer look can be found that the ideal ONE has an additional set of ISOFIX child seat interfaces, which further consolidates its identity as a "milk daddy car".
Tuon's center console is a more conventional design, but the material is still quite solid, the soft leather with stitching is not bad to the touch; the ideal ONE's center console is relatively simple and straight, and the "3+1" four large screens also bring a good sense of intelligent technology. At the same time, the interior materials of the ideal ONE are also relatively solid, and the places that are easily accessible are covered with relatively soft materials.
Intelligent network part, Tu Ang's 12-inch touch LCD screen although with the Internet of Vehicles, but unfortunately without OTA upgrades, fortunately, the CarPlay function is equipped, so that its playfulness has been guaranteed. In contrast, the ideal ONE not only has the Internet of Vehicles, but also supports OTA upgrades, and the entertainment screen of the co-driver provides resources such as car KTV and online movies, which are more entertaining.
In terms of driving, Tuon is equipped with intelligent configurations such as parallel assist, lane departure warning, lane keeping assist, and active braking, which can bring certain convenience and safety. In contrast, Ideal ONE, its self-developed AD assisted driving system, in addition to having a similar functional configuration with Tuon, also has road traffic sign recognition, as well as HIGH-end assisted driving systems such as NOA navigation assisted driving; and it is worth mentioning that ideal ONE's active braking (AEB) has also won the AEB annual test championship held by well-known domestic institutions.
In terms of power, Tuon is equipped with a 2.0T engine with a maximum power of 162kW and a maximum torque of 350N·m, which is matched by a DSG gearbox with an acceleration time of 0-100km/h of 8.4 seconds; the ideal ONE is driven by a dual-motor system, with a total power of 245kW and a total torque of 455N·m, matched with an electric vehicle single-speed transmission, with an acceleration time of 0-100km/h of 6.5 seconds.
Overall, through the above aspects, the biggest feature of the ideal ONE car is its luxurious six-seat layout, as well as its self-developed AD driver assistance system. And the volkswagen Tuang's battle may be its three major pieces, the so-called "sense of high", may not be as obvious as the ideal ONE. On the whole, it is obvious that the ideal ONE is more cost-effective, combined with its green card free purchase tax characteristics, it is no wonder that the ideal ONE will "crush" Tuang in terms of sales, you say yes?
