If you don't name Lingdu L, it is actually difficult to associate Lingdu L with the old Lingdu, because whether it is the appearance or interior, Lingdu L is quite different from the old Lingdu. It features a completely new design, frameless doors, and a hatchback rear tailgate, designed to cater to young people. The new car has landed in the domestic market on March 31 this year, with a price range of 149,900-18.99 million yuan, as a new car positioned A+ class, can it win a place in the current market? Especially for young consumers, is this new car worth getting started? Next, the Car Demon King will explain in detail.
In the past many years, when people mention the appearance of Volkswagen, they often say that Volkswagen is a matryoshka design, no matter what the model, it is basically a look, but the new Volkswagen Lingdu L gives people a different feeling. Lingdu L gave up Volkswagen's previously more inherent familial front face, but adopted a new design language, the grille opening is very large, this "bad smile" front face does not look "Volkswagen" at all, and several lines on the hood are high and raised, which also better highlights the sporty sense of the vehicle. In addition, Lingdu L also adopts a frameless door and hatchback shape, and the appearance of the stylish sense of sportiness is more outstanding.
The interior of Volkswagen is often a place that is more complained about, and the new Lingdu L has also made a lot of efforts in interior design, but compared to the effort under the exterior design, the interior design is still worth improving. Although the dual screen design is used to enhance the sense of technology, the entire central control still has the simplicity of the Volkswagen interior, and the contrast is somewhat too obvious compared to the appearance. Although the design concept of simplicity and fashion is remarkable, the overall design idea still has a large room for improvement.
Lingdu L has L in his name, and he knows that the car has been lengthened. The new Volkswagen Lingdu L has a length, width and height dimension of 4784*1831*1469 (mm), while the wheelbase has reached 2731mm, the length of the car is 169mm longer than the old Lingdu, and the wheelbase is 75mm more than that of the old Lingdu, and the improvement is more obvious. The rear space of the new Lingdu L has also been significantly improved, which can better meet the needs of a family's daily car. Men who are about 180cm tall are riding in the back seat, the leg space is about 1 punch, the head space is only about 2 fingers, even if the front head space, less than 4 fingers. For men who are taller than 180cm, the space of the car is somewhat compact, and it is relatively more comfortable to be under 175cm.
In terms of configuration, Lingdu L has also carried out a lot of upgrades, in addition to the entry-level models, other models are equipped with full-speed adaptive cruise, active braking, lane keeping, lane departure warning, road traffic recognition, electric sunroof, seat electric adjustment, rear cup holder and other configurations, auxiliary driving configuration is more abundant, to cope with daily driving is still relatively easy. Unfortunately, the whole series is not equipped with a panoramic image system and a fatigue driving reminder function, and the automatic parking function and reversing side warning function are only available in the top model, and there is also some room for improvement in the later stage.
All models of the Volkswagen Lingdu L series are equipped with 1.4T engines, and there is only one power tuning, the maximum horsepower is 150Ps, the maximum torque is 250N·m, and it continues to be equipped with a 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission, and the powertrain is the same as that of the old Lingdu. The 1.4T engine is powerful enough to cope with daily travel. In fact, this set of powertrains has been relatively mature, in terms of adjustment biased towards low torsion output, in the rear acceleration is relatively weak, power performance is more in line with domestic consumer demand.
summary:
The main changes of the new Volkswagen Lingdu L are the appearance and interior, especially the exterior design, which peaked on the inherent appearance of Volkswagen in the past, while the space has also been significantly improved, and the configuration has also been upgraded, which shows that Volkswagen has spent a lot of effort on the trend of car purchase youth. There is a saying that one, such a public Lingdu L do you like?
