As we all know, the incomparably exquisite market positioning has always been the way for Volkswagen to win in the mainland joint venture market. The most emblematic of this feature is undoubtedly Volkswagen's compact sedan. Just like the "special car" Langyi introduced by SAIC Volkswagen, with its excellent space of the same level and a people-friendly price of about 100,000 units, it can not only obtain monthly sales of more than 60,000 units, but also maintain the average monthly sales of about 30,000 units. From this, it can basically be seen that Volkswagen's compact cars have a strong influence in the domestic market of the same level. Nowadays, in the wave of volkswagen in the mainland market, Langyi's medium-term reform process has obviously not been ignored. No, a few days ago, there have been netizens (the following part of the real picture comes from @ shark drop things) at the local distribution office, photographed the first batch of 2023 Langyi real car figure to the store. Without further ado, let's take a look at how much Langyi has improved after the mid-term revamp through the lens of netizens.
The first thing to say is that the 2023 Langyi will also correspond to two designs according to the difference between the ordinary version and the starry sky version. The actual model this time is its ordinary version. As can be seen from the picture, the front face of the new car will continue the multi-spoke grille shape, but the back hook chrome plating added to the front surround and the setting of the simulated air intake slot on both sides not only make it look more refined, but also enhance the sports atmosphere to a certain extent.
The side part of the body, the multi-section straight waist line structure, with a small slip back layout, can not only reflect its consistent strength and simple style, but also let its side face not lose its dynamic attributes.
The most intuitive adjustment of the rear of the new car is that the rear surround is replaced by a chrome exhaust pendant that can echo the front face, equipped with polygonal LED taillights, which can also sublimate the delicate ingredients.
After all, it is still a mid-term redesign, and the interior adjustment of the new car is still relatively large. As can be seen from the picture, the 2023 Langyi uses the existing Volkswagen family interior design. That is, it is a combination of large-size full LCD instrument + suspension central control screen, with simplified physical buttons, which significantly improves the scientific and technological atmosphere of its interior.
In terms of passenger space, due to the 4678*1806*1474 mm three-dimensional circumference and 2688mm wheelbase of the 2023 Langyi model, it is only an increase of 8mm in length compared to the old model. Therefore, its spatial performance does not make people feel the change. Of course, to say that such a size arrangement, in the joint venture of the same level of products is not a disadvantage.
As for the power, it is reported that in addition to continuing to provide 1.5L and 1.4T engine options, the 2023 Langyi will also add 1.2T power options. In terms of transmission system, according to the model, it matches a 5-speed manual, a 6-speed manual and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
Overall, the internal/external design adjustment of the 2023 Langyi, as a mid-term revamped model, should be relatively sincere. If there are surprises in terms of its configuration and price, I believe that the new car will still be "not worried about selling".
