Family cars must buy a large one, of course not, the car also has small benefits, the car price is cheaper, the fuel consumption is lower, the maintenance cost of the car is low, the driving is more flexible, the parking is more convenient, as for the space, in fact, it is enough. The car we want to talk about today is a very classic family car, it is the 2021 Volkswagen polo, so let's take a look at how this new car is?
The shape design still follows the language of the Volkswagen family, the overall outline of the front of the car is relatively rounded, the narrow and long mid-mesh grille, the internal structure is simple, and the two side headlights are at the same height and connected into one, the lower grille presents a double-layer style, the front lip of the car is connected with the fog light area, more angular geometric styles appear more youthful and sporty, and the muscle lines on the hood also increase the sense of strength.
Looking at the side of the body, the silhouette is short and concise, more straight lines are used, showing a more atmospheric style, the high waist line extends from the headlights to the tail lights, the shark fin and the duckling tail are more sporty, the lower waist line bend angle is more distinct, the 16-inch multi-width wheel hub style is exquisite, and the 185 mm tire width is quieter and more fuel-efficient. 4053x1740x1449 mm length, width and height, 2564 mm wheelbase, this is a small 5-door 5-seat hatchback, so the body is shorter, the width and wheelbase of the car compared with the same class of cars perform well, the chassis of the car is relatively low, although it affects the passability, but effectively improve the handling performance, reduce wind resistance and reduce fuel consumption.
The rear shape of the car is very simple, the shark fin and the duckling tail appear more sporty, the split taillight outline appears very wide, the bilateral double exhaust pipe style is a popular element, and the rear of the car has some more obvious muscle lines to enhance the sense of strength.
The interior adopts volkswagen's latest family design style, 8-inch central control LCD screen, surrounded by a large area of piano paint panel coverage, do not support the mobile phone interconnection function has a little regret, but support voice recognition control system, but not very good. Below the central control screen is the air conditioning outlet and radio button, and the flat-bottom multi-function steering wheel is more sporty and feels good. There is more hard plastic in the whole car, which feels cheaper.
Although the body size is not large, but the space utilization rate in the car is OK, so the actual ride is not particularly depressing, I am 1 meter 75 tall, sitting in the cockpit head has a punch or so of space, sitting in the 2nd row, the front seat is adjusted to the appropriate position, the leg has a punch space, the head four fingers, on this level of the model, I think this space performance is not bad, can meet the daily home space needs for space.
The trunk has 310 liters, because it is a hatchback, so the depth is relatively shallow, the height is OK, if you think this trunk is not enough, the rear seat support is put down, you can expand the volume of 1003 liters, greatly improving the loading capacity. Generally speaking, for a family of three daily use cars, this trunk is mostly enough.
In terms of power, the 1.5l four-cylinder naturally aspirated engine has a maximum power of 113 horsepower, matching the 5-speed manual transmission and 6at transmission, although the power is not very strong, the actual test of 100 km acceleration performance is about 12 seconds, this acceleration ability to cope with the daily commuting in the city is not too much of a problem, can meet the vast majority of ordinary working families daily car demand for power. There is a little meat at the beginning, low-speed driving is slightly frustrated, the power output is relatively linear, there is no feeling of breaking, the body is short, the car is light, the turn is flexible, it is more convenient to reverse the car when parking, and the overall driving experience is still relatively light.
Generally speaking, users who choose this level of model, there is no too high demand for power, the car is more affordable to save fuel, the car official 100 kilometers comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.5l, not stuck in the case of traffic jams, running on the ring line, can run out of 4.9l fuel consumption, high-speed driving above generally in 5 more oil, city congestion road conditions, fuel consumption between 7 oil and 9 oil, in the case of special congestion, summer in the air conditioning, can also run out of 10 oil. If you want to save fuel, you still have to drive a car of this level, and the daily car can save a lot of fuel money.
McPherson independent suspension + longitudinal arm twist beam non-independent suspension, do not see the non-independent suspension on the bad, non-independent suspension cost is lower, the price is naturally lower, for ordinary users, it will be more affordable. The longitudinal arm twist beam type non-independent suspension structure is simple, which can effectively improve the utilization of space in the car. Most of the time we use the car environment is the urban flat road, occasionally over the speed bump, such a small vibration, ordinary users can not feel the difference between the chassis.
The 2021 Volkswagen polo chassis is adjusted to a more home comfort orientation, or the tight style of volkswagen, with a clear sense of road, excellent support and integrity, and full of toughness when passing through the speed bumps. When walking a relatively bad road, the suspension stroke is short, prone to secondary vibrations, more aftershocks, and the ride in the car feels more bumpy.
Sound insulation is done decently, the noise of the engine and the suppression of wind noise are OK, but the noise of the tires is more obvious, especially when driving on the high speed, the tire noise is larger, which affects the comfort of the ride.
Overall, the 2021 Volkswagen polo product performance is good, the manufacturer guidance price of 9.99 ~ 123,900 yuan, although many people do not like small cars, always feel that the space is small, and there is no face to drive out, especially this small 5-seat hatchback, I think that there is no butt car to drive up without sedan face. In fact, as long as you put aside these prejudices, you will find that the 2021 Volkswagen polo is really quite affordable, cheap, fuel-efficient, and the daily maintenance is also relatively economical, there are not many problems, so it is more suitable for the daily use of ordinary working families.
