Volkswagen Tiguan L in the mid-size SUV market for a long time, for a long time, Tiguan L has stabilized the monthly sales of more than 10,000 vehicles, becoming the top sales of the mid-size SUV market. However, as independent car companies embark on a luxurious journey and new energy vehicles emerge in an endless stream, the champion position of Tiguan L is often transposed. For example, in April last year, chery Tiggo 8 crossed the Tiguan L and became the new top sales volume in the mid-size SUV market. In May last year, the Hongqi HS5 also crossed the Tiguan L to become the top sales volume in the mid-size SUV market. And from September last year to February this year, Tesla Model Y ranked first in the sales volume of mid-size SUV market. Since Tiguan L fell to the championship position, although its monthly sales can be stabilized at four figures, most of the time it is outside the top three sales of the mid-size SUV market, and the gap is indeed not small.
In fact, Model Y, which ranks the champion of medium-sized SUV market sales, has many strong competitors around it, in addition to fuel veterans such as Hongqi HS5 and Tiguan L, there are new energy vehicles such as BYD Tang New Energy, of which the monthly sales of Tang New Energy are also around 10,000 vehicles, and the strength cannot be underestimated. It can be seen that Tang New Energy is divided into Tang DM and EV series, in order to better improve market competitiveness, BYD also released a new Tang EV on April 1 this year, compared with the sale of Tang EV, the new car in the appearance, endurance and other parts have been adjusted, in addition, the new car will be listed in mid-May this year, and the top price may be about 350,000 yuan, compared to the top price of 417,900 yuan Model Y, the new Tang EV still has a price advantage. So, how strong is the new Tang's product strength?
First of all, let's take a look at the appearance, the new Tang EV adopts the low wind resistance front face of the "Dragon Face" pure electric series, the narrow style headlights are integrated with the silver decorative strip, and the decorative strip surface is engraved with the Tang car logo of the relief design, and the design of this part is also a classic of the BYD Dynasty series. It is worth mentioning that the headlights on both sides are matrix design, and also integrate the near and far lights, steering auxiliary lights, etc., support rain and fog mode, headlight delay shutdown and other functions, the convenience of use is not low. In addition, the large front bumper surface is engraved with through-line lines, creating a two-layer design, and the bottom is also equipped with a large size silver skid plate, the entire front face looks full, but it does not lose the flexible and sporty atmosphere.
There are not many lines on the side of the body, the load-bearing column is black as the main color, creating a suspended roof, front and rear 21-inch closed low wind resistance wheels, it does not look contrary, and in the front and rear wheel eyebrows, side skirts, but also inlaid with black protective plate, the overall sports atmosphere is not weak. The rear of the car is equipped with a flat spoiler, the through-type taillights are not absent, it is a pity that the light strip of the Chinese knot element does not appear in the taillights of Tang EV, but because the two ends of the light strip are not pure red design, the overall recognition is not low. In addition, Tang EV will also provide a new Aurora blue body, combined with BASF's patented Magic Hexagonal technology, making the body color more pure, looking younger and textured.
In the car, you can see the beige black two-color center console, the three-frame multi-functional steering wheel is decorated with piano black decorative strips, the air conditioning outlet is decorated with silver decorative strips, the front of the center console is studded with a large black bright board, not surprisingly, the instrument screen is still a full LCD design, the 15.6-inch large screen in the central control area is still a highlight, in addition to the built-in DiLink 4.0 (5G) intelligent network system, it is also equipped with W-HUD heads-up display, which indeed sets off the scientific and technological atmosphere in the car. It also improves driving safety and convenience.
Looking at the size, the new Don EV has a 4900/1950/1725mm three-dimensional circumference and a 2820mm wheelbase, compared with the Tang EV on sale, the new car length has been lengthened by 30mm. Compared with the Model Y with 4750/1921/1624mm circumference and 2890mm wheelbase, it can be found that the Advantage of Tang EV Is Not Small, so the appearance aura will be slightly stronger than that of Model Y. The reason why the new Tang EV, which is also a medium-sized SUV, has such strength, I think this should be directly related to its 6-seat layout, and it is understood that the new Tang EV will also launch a 7-seat layout in the future, and the corresponding audience group is wider than the Model Y that only provides 5-seat layout.
Finally, in terms of battery life, the new Tang EV may provide two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive versions respectively, matching blade batteries, and bringing pure electric endurance of 730km, 635km and 600km respectively, of which the model equipped with the four-wheel drive version, zero hundred speed up only 4.4 seconds. Model Y also provides two-wheel drive, four-wheel drive version, bringing a minimum endurance of 545km, as well as the highest endurance of 660km, while the conventional four-wheel drive version of zero hundred speed is 5 seconds, high-performance four-wheel drive version of speed of 3.7 seconds, in comparison, you can find that Tang EV's endurance advantage is not small, coupled with a budget of about 350,000 yuan, it is possible to get to the zero hundred speed of 4.4 seconds four-wheel drive model, it is indeed slightly higher than the starting price of more than 370,000 yuan Model Y four-wheel drive model cost-effective. It seems that BYD is also the next book this time, what do you think?
