This year is a big year for Volkswagen's products, and many of its models have entered the time point of major changes. In the field of compact cars, the new Lingdu has been listed, and Langyi, Polaroid, and Sagitar have all entered the process of mid-term remodeling, and among them, Tan Chejun is still more concerned about the change trend of Sagitar. Sagitar is undoubtedly the sales star of FAW-Volkswagen, but the launch time of the current version has not been short, and the medium-term modification has changed a lot in all aspects, which can undoubtedly better meet the latest car purchase needs of consumers.
In terms of appearance, the adjustment of the front face part of the new Sagitar is not small, adding a penetrating chrome trim strip inside the middle net, and using a multi-level design, so that it is cleverly integrated with the headlight group, the visual extensibility is strengthened, and the overall appearance is very similar to the new Passat. The shape of the front bar has also been slightly changed, and the IQ.LIGHT logo has been added to the layout of the LED light group, and the recognition has been further improved.
The side is still a straight and smart design, and there is not much difference with the cash model. The internal structure of the tail lights has been adjusted, and chrome trim has been added to the bottom of the rear, which makes the visual effect more colorful.
In terms of interior, the new Sagittarius has made considerable changes, especially the 12-inch floating touch LCD screen is much larger than the current model, and the scientific and technological atmosphere has been enhanced. Its intelligent car and machine system has a variety of functions, the application reserve is very rich, and the human-computer interaction experience has been significantly improved. The new style three-frame multi-function steering wheel is moderately sized, the grip is relatively smooth, and the handling is convenient when driving. In addition, the car will also be equipped with a panoramic sunroof and automatic headlight opening function, especially the Travel Assist L2 level driver assistance system is worth looking forward to.
In terms of size, the new Sagitar is 4791/1801/1465 mm in length, width and height, and the wheelbase is 2731 mm, which is already at the upstream level in the compact sedan.
However, the biggest change of the new Sagitar is the power system, in addition to retaining the 1.2T and 1.4T engines, there will be an increase in the 1.5T version, which is the first time to appear in the Chinese market, the maximum power is 118KW, the peak torque is 250 Nm, due to the addition of variable-section turbine technology VTG and other technologies, the new 1.5T version will be better than the original 1.4T in terms of power response and fuel economy, and the transmission system matches the 7-speed dual clutch.
As a mid-term modification of the model, compared to the replacement of Lingdu still all use the 1.4T engine is obviously a lot more sincere, it seems that Sagitar is Volkswagen's sharp knife soldier, but there are also people who are dissatisfied with the continued use of 7-speed dual clutch, but Volkswagen in the Chinese market is estimated to be difficult to change this. The new Sagitar is expected to be listed in the first half of the year, and after the listing, the new Sagitar will undoubtedly continue to take on the responsibility of seizing more sales, and some people have not been able to wait for it
