The newly listed SAIC Volkswagen family in the Lingdu L caused a lot of hot topics, of which the frameless door, the large slipback design has become the focus of discussion of many small partners, and this is also another model after the Volkswagen CC that can be called a very coupe style, in addition, the network nickname of "spicy steamed buns" has also earned enough heat for Lingdu L.
Now back to the product itself, based on the Volkswagen MQB Evo platform to create a new Lingdu L can win the recognition of the broad audience in the market with high value, rich configuration, we from the price, configuration, power three aspects to analyze, which model is more worth choosing, compared with the competitive model, how competitive will be.
The new SAIC Volkswagen-Lingdu L launched four models with a price range of 149,900 to 189,900 yuan. The new car is still equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine with a 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission.
On the outside, Lingdu L can be seen to be similar to the design style of Volkswagen CC, and it is also another frameless door design after CC, the front face is very recognizable, the flat front design with the through-type front chrome decoration, plus the flat LOGO makes its front face look more layered, body color, the new car provides a total of 6 conventional body colors and 5 official matte color body. However, it should be noted that the previously promoted colors of tianjiao red and snow coffee gray are not within the range of conventional body colors, and can only be obtained as an option.
In terms of vehicle tire size, the new car offers a total of two sizes of rims, two of which are low-end with 17 inches and the rest of the models are equipped with 18 inches of rims.
In terms of interior configuration, the biggest highlight of Lingdu L is that all models adopt the central control screen design, and the 10.2-inch full LCD instrument is standard, and the difference lies in the size of the central control display, of which the medium and high-end models are below 10 inches, and the size of the medium and high-end and high-end models is 12 inches. In terms of interior color scheme, three interior colors are available, of which cool black and scarlet are standard, and charm blue is optional. Most of the buttons in the car are touch-type design, which enhances the sense of interior technology.
The entire series of powertrain models uses a 1.4T engine, the maximum power is 150 horsepower, the peak torque is 250 Nm, and the engine is matched by a 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission, which adopts Volkswagen's latest electronic gear handle design, which looks relatively small.
If you choose the Lingdu L model, the differentiated configuration of the 4 models has become the focus of attention of car buyers, which model is more cost-effective, one by one.
Taking the Lingdu L 280TSI hot spicy (entry-level) model as an example, the new car already has frameless doors, LED automatic headlights, LED daytime running lights, rearview mirror electric adjustment, electric folding, rearview mirror heating, induction wipers, air conditioning, rear exhaust air outlet and other common configuration functions, the appearance configuration is basically consistent with high-end models, and the main difference in appearance configuration is matrix headlights and interior atmosphere lights.
The difference in the interior configuration of the entry-level model is mainly the 10-inch central control screen, and the other is that the entry-level model is the only model that uses fabric seats, and the rest of the models are leather seats.
In terms of safety configuration, the entry-level model has the main co-pilot airbag, side air curtain, front and rear head airbags, tire pressure monitoring, rear reversing radar, reversing image, automatic parking, uphill assist and other functions, and the comfort configuration has remote control key, keyless entry, multi-function steering wheel, manual adjustment of the main driver's seat, Bluetooth telephone, Vehicle Networking, front and rear power windows, automatic air conditioning, cruise control, etc.
From the perspective of practicality, the Lingdu L280TSI hot entry model priced at 149,900 yuan has been able to become the object of choice for consumers with these configurations, if 10,000 yuan is added, the practical configuration has increased the full car seat belt untied prompt, lane departure warning, lane keeping assist, active braking, full speed adaptive cruise, electric sunroof, leather seat, and electric adjustment of the main driver's seat.
If you add another 10,000 yuan and upgrade to the Lingdu L cool version of the model, the practicality configuration does not have too much practicality in addition to adding the front radar, the electric induction trunk, the wireless charging of the front mobile phone, the 30-color in-car atmosphere light and the 10-inch central control screen is upgraded to 12 inches.
The difference between the top version of the model and the entry-level model is 40,000 yuan, the main difference is the knee airbag, the driver safety assistance function configuration includes parallel assist, lane departure warning, active braking, automatic parking, electric trunk, steering wheel heating, main co-pilot electric adjustment, front seat ventilation heating, etc., of which the advertised Beats speaker brand is only equipped with top models.
On the whole, if the purchase cost is limited, there is no doubt that the cost performance of the entry-level model is the highest, if you want to experience a wealth of scientific and technological configurations, you can directly choose the Lingdu L 280TSI cool version model priced at nearly 170,000 yuan. However, from the perspective of configuration, the cost performance of Lingdu L at the same price point is not dominant compared with competing models, and Lingdu L is in the compact market competition, in addition to frameless doors and fashionable back-up shapes, the body size is its advantage.
