Especially for consumers who are going to buy a three-row SUV, among the Volkswagen models with a price range of 300,000 to 400,000, should they choose the fledgling scene or the Tuon that has been in the market for many years?

To this end, we selected the 2021 380TSI four-wheel drive R-Line extension version with a pre-sale price of 345,000 yuan, and compare it with the 2021 380TSI four-wheel drive luxury version of Touron, which is priced at 342,000 yuan. Take a look at these two models. For models with a price difference of only 3,000 yuan, who can be better in this dialogue between North and South Volkswagen.

From the appearance point of view, the front face design of Lanjing has a strong sense of hierarchy. The front surround is decorated with a lot of chrome elements. The side of the body looks very slender. The rear part uses a lot of horizontal lines. The upper part is a through-type taillight. There is a distinct sense of layering.

The mid-term facelift of the Touron adopts a new front face design. The overall outline of the headlights has changed significantly. The interior is upgraded to IQ.Light full LED matrix headlights. The penetrating LED light strips and the flat Volkswagen LOGO in the center of the front can also be used. Lights up, it feels like a new energy vehicle.

The taillights of Touron use the same through-type design as the headlights, and the central LOGO can also be lit. With the design of running water turn signals and through-type chrome bars, the texture has been significantly improved.

In terms of the wheelbase of the vehicle body, the length, width and height of Lanjing is 5152/2002/1795mm, and the wheelbase is 2980mm; the length, width and height of Tuon is 5052/1989/1773mm, and the wheelbase is 2980mm. In contrast, the landscape is better than Tuon.

In the interior, the full LCD instrument panel is used in the interior, with a floating central control multimedia touch screen. The three-spoke multi-function steering wheel and the lever-type electronic shift mechanism are matched with each other, and the level of the central control is well-prepared. The platform design further enhances the sense of technology and luxury in the car.

In contrast, Touron’s interior is consistent with the old model. The classic Volkswagen family design makes people unable to pick out too many faults.

In terms of power, Lanjing is equipped with a 2.0T engine of model EA888-DPL, which is consistent with Touron. Among them, the 330TSI version has a maximum power of 186 horsepower and a peak torque of 320 N·m; the 380TSI version has a maximum power of 220 horsepower and a peak torque of 350 N·m, and the engine is matched with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. box.

The difference is that the official zero-hundred acceleration of the 380TSI four-wheel drive R-Line extension version is 9.2 seconds, and the combined fuel consumption of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is 8.6 liters; The fuel consumption is 8.5 liters.

In addition, in terms of configuration, although this selection is more expensive than the route, it also has additional functions such as merging assistance, lane departure warning, active braking, and steering wheel shifting.

Say a few more words

In general, through comparison, Tuon’s biggest advantage is that it has a certain consumer base after the market test, while the biggest advantage of Lanjing lies in being younger and more equipped.

To be honest, it was born at the same root. From the perspective of platform architecture and Volkswagen’s two-car strategy, Lanjing and Tourang are targeting the medium and large SUV market with a price range of 300,000 to 400,000 yuan. The volume is full of flavor.

Audi unveiled up to four brand-new models this week at the 2021 Shanghai Auto Show, where the stretched A7L and A6 e-tron sedans garner the most attention. The two models share the stage with an upgraded long wheelbase Q5 and a mysterious new Audi Shanghai concept in the form of an all-electric SUV. While the A7L will be the first Audi model in China developed with local Volkswagen Group partner SAIC – other models developed with another partner FAW – this new electric vehicle is not far behind. . Considered a research concept at the moment, it will evolve into a production car in the second half of this year. Details are still scarce, but we do know that it will be 4,870 mm long. The figure on this electric luxury Audi Shanghai makes it nearly as long as the Audi e-tron SUV currently sold in many parts of the world, and some local sources say it will be built based on Volkswagen’s MEB chassis. Group, similar to the Q4 e-tron and the smaller Q4 Sportback e-tron. The concept car shown at the show has a camouflage cover with an e-tron mark and all the windows are darkened, meaning the company is not ready to reveal the interior of the new car. With Audi quiet, all we can do is speculate. Considering the announced overall length of the car, perhaps the production version will be equivalent to the Volkswagen ID.6 that also debuted at this year’s Shanghai Auto Show. That three-row electric SUV also uses the MEB chassis and measures 4,876 mm in length. However, this is merely a speculation. If that is the case, we can expect the best version of the new electric SUV to be equipped with the AWD Quattro drivetrain with 2 electric motors delivering a total output of 302 hp and 310 Nm of maximum torque. the equivalent of the dual-motor ID.6, or even more powerful, to deserve the Audi title. At ID.6, this capacity allows it to accelerate from 0-100 km / h in 6.6 seconds and the top speed is electronically limited to 160 km / h. In terms of travel distance, we can also see ID.6 modeled with two options of 58 kWh and 77 kWh, with the second type providing a maximum travel distance of 588 km / h according to the Chinese NEDC cycle. . Time will tell what real specs will be on the new Audi electric SUV. The model on display only has a simple name, the new electric Audi Concept Shanghai, and will certainly bear a different name when it goes into production. Also, it is worth noting that this model will be exclusive to the Chinese market. Video: Audi introduces a series of luxury electric cars in China.

At the 2021 Shanghai Motor Show, this is clearly shown through a new SAIC Roewe Jing 2022 concept from SAIC’s sub-brand, Jing. The SAIC Roewe Jing SUV means “whale” or “whale”, and the grille has a sophisticated, impressive design that is modeled after the mouth of the largest animal on the planet. In addition to the unique grille, the front end also has other notable details such as thin headlights, decorative LED strips and daytime running lights in the side corners. Meanwhile, the tail section of the SUV is also as bold as the first. Through the official photos here, the rear end is quite short with the roof sloping sharply to the rear. At the same time, it also has some sporty details such as X-shaped light clusters and thin light bars, extending to the full width. The side of the car shows the presence of a set of star-shaped wheels, hidden door handles Unfortunately, with the exception of the photos here, we don’t have much other information about Roewe Jing.
