Now the car manufacturers are eyeing the young people's fat meat, this is not, SAIC Volkswagen's newly listed Lingdu L actually used a frameless car door + hatchback tailgate coupe design. Nowadays, young people have more and more choices, and today we will compare Lingdu L with the veteran sports car Civic to see if there is a solution to this choice difficulty that belongs to young people?
01
Exterior comparison: Frameless doors vs Retro Sport
In terms of level, Lingdu L has always been an A+ level product, and now it adopts a coupe design, four frameless doors + hatchback tailgate, and directly transforms into a pure coupe product. As the backbone of Honda's compact sedan, Civic has been widely praised as a fist product, and the new eleventh generation product has the strength to jump to the A+ ranks. From the appearance point of view, Lingdu L has a design style that volkswagen did not have in the past, and it is fully integrated into the design language of the ID. series, and you will even mistake it for a pure electric car. The body line is greatly softened, the front face design is directly jumping out of Volkswagen's current family design language, and the four frameless doors make the price rise. The design style of the eleventh generation Civic did not continue the thinking of the ten generations of ghost fire teenagers, and suddenly converged, but the body proportions, lines, etc. are all telling the sports style of the golden age, and the "refreshing" design language does have its own uniqueness.
02
Interior comparison: Smart Cockpit VS Driving Atmosphere
The interior is a confrontation between two completely different design styles, which is what we like to see, Lingdu L adopts Volkswagen's latest physical buttonless interior design, fully digitized, dual screen design is the most popular at the moment; Civic this side polishes the traditional cockpit design rounded, the design is simple and pays more attention to the driving atmosphere. In terms of intelligent cockpit, Lingdu L is relatively fast, fully digital electronic, the central control system is also synchronized with the latest version of the ID.series, and is also equipped with wireless CarPlay, but the navigation and multimedia modules of the native system seem to be relatively difficult to use; civic this side of the dashboard also uses a full LCD instrument, the central control screen classic suspension design size is slightly smaller, the software system is a lot of progress, first of all, the brightness is particularly high Operation is also very smooth, built-in system navigation, voice, Multimedia is basically enough to use, but the entire series does not support CarPlay, and the size of the central control screen of the low-end model is smaller.
03
Spatial comparison: Household attributes are basic disks
Space is actually the most important point of the compact class family car, has always been the world of the space of the world, Lingdu L has added a new "L" word, naturally lengthened the wheelbase, and even if the side has been visible to the naked eye of the proportion imbalance, but also to increase the crew cabin to the maximum; although the Civic although the wheelbase is a little longer, the long front suspension and the design of the long cabin make the crew cabin slightly inferior. Overall, the rear space of the two cars is not much different, Lingdu L is slightly more spacious in terms of legroom, and Civic actually steals a lot of riding space from the trunk. In this way, in terms of tail volume, Ling Du L, who has a hatchback tailgate, is the winner.
04
Power comparison: one move fresh VS high and low power
In terms of power, Volkswagen's new 1.5T engine seems to be far away, Lingdu L continues to use the third generation of Volkswagen EA211 1.4T turbo engine with a 7-speed DSG dual-clutch transmission; the eleventh generation Civic is to cancel the three-cylinder 1.0T engine, replaced by two high and low power 1.5T engines, high power 182 horsepower is still very objective, but the output of less than 130 horses at low power is jokingly called turbo decompression by the majority of netizens. In terms of gearbox, although the 1.4T of Lingdu L is not dominant in power, the matching 7-speed dual-clutch power transmission is more efficient, compared to the CVT transmission used by the Civic system, there is no obvious gap in the driving acceleration experience.
05
Dynamic contrast: comfort is the main theme technology is also
The dynamic aspect is more interesting, the two main sports style models, it seems that they do not continue to pursue the ultimate sports performance in terms of dynamics, more inclined to the home comfort style tuning and the largest possible crew compartment, all show that for home practicality is still the main theme of compact cars. In contrast, the dynamic feeling of Lingdu L is more comfortable, the chassis tuning seems to have not thought of adding any sense of sport, but can be compared with the comfort of medium-sized cars; civic is based on comfort, retaining a certain sports driving style, adjusting the driving mode and other ways to obtain a biased sporty power output, but the overall adjustment of the chassis is still biased towards comfort orientation.
Both cars unexpectedly attach great importance to the driver assistance configuration, both equipped with full-speed domain ACC adaptive cruise and lane keeping, reaching the L2 driver assistance level, while the coverage rate of the configuration is exceptionally high, the Civic 240 model is standard in all series, lingdu L four configurations are three medium and high equipment, low configuration can also be optional.

Edit the review
These two cars in the positioning of the actually have some differences, from the price can also be seen, Lingdu L will actually be slightly higher than half a level, coupled with the cost of frameless doors of coupe models is also higher, the newly listed Lingdu L this pricing I personally think is also appropriate, after all, in addition, any brand of the same level of products to spend more than 30,000 is impossible to have frameless doors + hatchback tailgate. The specific comparison I will not repeat here, Civic and sibling personality in the body color and official kit are special after all, there are many rare personalized choices, and Lingdu L in the personalization of the further, in addition to the official to give the frameless car door, there are tian pepper red and cigar gray these two need to add money to the custom color, in addition to five official color changes, low-end models also have many high-end options, the overall flexibility is also very high.
In fact, Lingdu L and Civic represent two completely different tastes, Lingdu L seems to be depicting the future, and Civic continues to portray classics.
