The Golf "50-Year Legend Edition" starts at 149,800, and it still holds 1.4T, and the configuration is very average
In the face of the competitiveness of the domestic auto market, many joint venture brands are not very accustomed to it, and there are indeed many joint venture models that have begun to fight price wars, such as Volkswagen's Langyi Bora and other models are getting cheaper and cheaper. But there are also some models with relatively low status that are relatively strong, such as the Golf, which has sold more than 3,000 units in a single month in recent months, and is not the sales pillar of the Volkswagen brand, so the facelift is not so aggressive, and the price of the recently launched 2024 50-year Legend Edition model is still relatively high-profile.
The entry guide price of this 50-year legendary version reaches 149,800, and the high configuration is 165,800, to be honest, such a price range is much more expensive than Langyi Bora. And in the case that the price is not cheap, the new Volkswagen Golf has not changed much, including the core three suggestions and the details of the comfort configuration has not been significantly upgraded.
You must know that now about 100,000 level can already choose new energy medium-sized B-class cars of domestic independent brands, such as BYD's Qin L and other models. But in terms of size, the Volkswagen Golf is really just a very entry-level compact body, with a total body length of only 4296mm, a width of 1788mm, and a wheelbase of only 2631mm.
Although the official advertisement is the so-called 50-year Legend Edition model, the name sounds big, but in fact it is just an annual routine facelift, and there really is no major exterior styling modification. The main style is still the original body-in-white, that is, the classic hatchback small steel cannon, the details of the front face of the car have added a through-type daytime running light strip, with black sports trim, color-blocked rearview mirrors on the side of the body and black sports blade wheels.
Although dual screens are provided in the car, the screen size of the central control car machine is only 10 inches, and it does not support OTA upgrades of the car machine. In terms of details, the comfort configuration is not too bright, the entry-level seats are only a mix of textile fabrics, and the front row only supports electric adjustment for the main driver.
The chassis material is really good, after all, the handling of the Golf has always been a highlight, with a front MacPherson with a rear multi-link independent suspension. But the power system is still the ancestral Volkswagen 1.4T engine, and it is really incomprehensible to still hold this engine, after all, the new Volkswagen 1.5T has long been introduced, which has not been used in the Golf for a long time. And the 1.4T continues to be paired with a dry dual-clutch transmission, and to be honest, the 150 horsepower output of this combination is not too aggressive.
Overall, the attractiveness of the Volkswagen Golf is declining, especially the rise of independent brands and the impact of domestic new energy vehicles, the overall cost performance of this car is obviously unable to keep up with the rhythm.
