After 7 years, Lingdu ushered in a change of generation, except for the power seems to have changed. As a family car with a partial personality, Lingdu has been more popular with young consumers in the past. At this level, the positioning of Civic and Lingdu is close, both are the concept of rejuvenation; Sagitar is because of the same brand, the positioning is close, and everyone will inevitably compare it when choosing a car. That being the case, let's take a look at the performance of each of the three cars, who is more suitable for contemporary young consumers.
SAIC Volkswagen Lingdu L
Guidance price: 14.99-18.99 million yuan
The shape of Lingdu L is the most controversial, jumping out of the design logic and concept of the past public. The oversized lower bracket at the front occupies most of the front of the car, and the interior is a dot matrix design with a certain arrangement logic. In the past, the traditional sense of the network was replaced by a light-emitting light strip, there is a luminous logo in the center, and the headlights on both sides are not flattened or split with the current, but are relatively full, the interior is the light source of the LED, and the high-end car has adaptive far and near light and matrix headlights.
The side of the Lingdu L can actually see the shadow of the previous model, the headlights are extended on both sides, and the waist line is the usual straight of German cars. The rear half of the car uses a sneaky back shape, which is the kind that young people like today. Frameless doors are very rare in this class, and the hatchback tailgate is not only good-looking, because the opening is large, it is more convenient when carrying items.
The rear part of the car is unsurprisingly using through-style taillights, and the interior has a slightly blackened style to enhance the sporty texture, with a luminous logo, which is very similar to the ID series. The bottom is surrounded by a black resin material, with silver trim strips to make the appearance of exhaust, while the real exhaust is at the bottom. It can be said that it looks like a coupe atmosphere, and it is a more personalized model.
This time Lingdu L has also greatly improved the space atmosphere in the car, first of all, the application of the dual screen, which has brought a relatively strong sense of science and technology, and the degree of intelligence of the car machine system has also been greatly improved. While the INTERFACE of the MOS 4.0 system has become more beautiful, it has added the Internet of Vehicles, Smart Home, and Online Application Mall. In addition, Lingdu L supports CarPlay and CarLife, supports wireless connectivity, and improves the convenience a lot. A row of touch-like buttons is provided below the central control screen, which does not affect the overall sense and increases practicality. At the front of the bottom central aisle is a storage compartment with two power connectors, and the rear shift lever uses the same Porsche lever type, which is both technological and space-saving.
The length, width and height of Lingdu L are 4784*1831*1469mm, and the wheelbase is 2731mm, which is longer than the old model in terms of length and wheelbase, and the rear legroom is abundant. In addition to the size of the space, the comfort is also reflected in the material and functionality of the seat. The Lingdu L low-end started to be equipped with leather seats and main driver's seat ESC, and if it is a high-end model, there are also co-pilot seat ESC and front seat heating/ventilation functions. The trunk has previously mentioned a hatchback tailgate with a large opening, while the rear seats can be scaled down to expand the space.
The 1.4T + 7-speed dual-clutch power combination is very familiar to everyone, and there is basically no difference from the old model, which has been used for many years and is still the mainstream level. With a maximum horsepower of 150Ps and a maximum torque of 250N·m, the performance is certainly not weak. The horsepower figure is not as large as the Civic 240TURBO, but the shift speed and torque output brought by the dual clutch are unmatched by the CVT transmission. In addition, today's other model Sagitar is also equipped with the same engine, but the price is higher.
Dongfeng Honda Civic
Guidance price: 12.99-16.39 million yuan
At present, there are three Civic models on sale, namely the latest sedan version, the 21 hatchback version, which is the hatchback version, and the 19 old sedan version. Our recommendation today is the latest sedan version, which has become more "grocery shopping" compared to older models, losing passion but adding a sense of quality. The front face was a family design with a large number of black grilles, and some models were painted black with wheels and mirrors on both sides.
The shape of the rear of the car is also closer to the big brother Accord, which has become slightly low-key, and the shape of the back is currently the mainstream. However, the combustion engine version shown above has added a small tail wing at the rear, which looks very sporty. And the bottom exhaust pipe is also made of two sides of the double design, it looks quite atmospheric. If you want the new Civic, and think the shape is too ordinary, the burning engine version we are more recommended.
In the past, it was said that the public's interior was horizontal and vertical, this time it was Honda's turn, the civic's interior used a more regular design concept, the central control screen is independent, the air conditioner outlet honeycomb-like penetration, creating a strong sense of science and technology, but still using the traditional mechanical gear, more contrary, while occupying a larger space.
The length, width and height of the new Civic sedan version are 4674 * 1802 * 1415mm, the wheelbase is 2735mm, the length is the smallest of the three cars recommended today, but the wheelbase is the longest, the gap is not large, so the space inside the car is limited by the external size. The bulge of the central aisle in the rear row is also relatively small, so it can be said that the space is done well, but half of the seats are with fabric and are not convenient to take care of. And only the top and secondary tops are equipped with the main driver's seat ESC, which is slightly inferior in the configuration.
The Civic has two power options, both 1.5T, divided into high and low power, and the maximum horsepower is 129Ps and 182Ps, respectively. The acceleration ability of the low-power version is weak, and the zero hundred acceleration is ten seconds away, so the recommendation is to buy the version of 240TURBO, which is similar to the Lingdu L in terms of price.
FAW-Volkswagen Sagittarius
Guidance price: 13.35-16.59 million yuan
Sagittarius has always been identified as the most direct competitor of Lingdu, but their style is slightly different, Lingdu L is more sporty, personality, young, Sagitar is old and stable, and it is still the case today. Sagittarius is more suitable for older consumers, or consumers who prefer to be low-key. The front face net uses a family hexagonal grille, and the lower surround is sportsized to make the front look less dull.
On the side is a tough pen straight line, which is somewhat similar to Lingdu L, but Sagittarius is a more traditional sedan layout, with no slipback and no hatchback door. The tail lighting is also the family design of the public, and the internal shape is more complex, which looks very advanced. In addition, silver trim strips were also made at the bottom to play a decorative role in exhausting.
The layout of the central control is still the concept of the older generation of the public, the central control screen is tilted to the driver, the air conditioning control area uses the "ancestral" panel of the public, and the mechanical gear is not in line with the characteristics of the times. However, the workmanship and quality are still the usual qualities of the public, but it is not easy to get tired.
The wheelbase of volkswagen Sagittarius is exactly the same as that of Lingdu L, which means that their internal space is also infinitely close, and normal adults ride more generously, and head and leg space are guaranteed. More sincere is that Sagitar is equipped with leather seats as standard, and the top is still spliced with Alcantara material. The disadvantage is that only the top configuration has the main driver's seat ESC and heating function, which is not as close as the seat configuration of Lingdu L.
Sagitar has two kinds of power, 1.2T and 1.4T, the former output maximum horsepower 116Ps, the latter output maximum horsepower 150Ps, the 1.2T version has manual transmission and 7-speed dual-clutch two gearboxes, and the 1.4T version is all matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The 1.4T version is the same as the Lingdu L, and the performance is very similar. From the perspective of the ratio of models, Sagitar is more inclined to promote the 1.2T version, and the price is relatively reasonable. If it is the same power, then the starting price of Sagitar is actually higher than that of Lingdu L.
Lingdu L, Civic, Sagitar three cars are popular in the family car, Lingdu L is one of the most personality, the last listed it has some latecomer advantages, such as more for the young people's appetite design concept and a more intelligent system; Civic design has become "buy vegetables", but can not say ugly, the atmosphere in the car is relatively novel, two kinds of power suitable for different groups; Sagitar's modeling, interior is relatively low-key, power and Lingdu L have a part of the overlap, if it is equivalent power, The price-performance ratio shown by Lingdu L is very impressive. On the whole, the three cars have their own characteristics and advantages, Lingdu L is more prominent in it, with a more personalized design, a higher degree of intelligence of the system, and in the power system, the 1.4T engine is more realistic than the sagittarius at the same price, more cost-effective than the Civic.
