AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)03/20 Report--

The new generation of Suiteng finally ushered in a new generation, the price of 8 models is 13.18-196800 yuan, the new car is based on MQB A2 platform, fully lengthened, in which the new car wheelbase is 2731mm, on the basis of the overseas version of the new Jetta, lengthened 45mm, longer than the current wheelbase 80mm, the overall length, width and height to 4753/1800/1462mm. In terms of appearance, the new Suiteng overall follows the overall style of the overseas version of Jetta, because the design is still strong Volkswagen style, all as a new generation of models are not so fresh.

For Suiteng L, the response on the market is just one word-expensive. The minimum automatic gear of the new car costs 143800, while the top model costs nearly 200000. If there is no discount at the terminal, the price of Suiteng L will still scare a lot of people.

It is undeniable that Suiteng is an excellent compact car, and the market performance of more than 20,000 yuan a month is the best proof, but in any case, Suiteng is always an A-class car, even if it is lengthened, there is still a certain gap with the mainstream B-class cars on the market, however, two pictures have recently leaked out on the Internet, the main content is that Suiteng L has made a comparison with Accord and Passat. There is no doubt that the result is Suiteng L "hanging" the latter two. Of course, this picture is likely to be a poster made by a dealer somewhere.

In the poster comparing Suiteng L with Accord, 12 items are listed, including engine, airbag, driving mode and so on. The official guiding price of Accord 1.5T comfort model is 179800, while the price of Suiteng L 1.4T luxury model in the poster is also 179800, but Suiteng L is an A-class car, even if extended, it can not reach the level of mainstream B-class cars, using subtops to match others' comfortable version. Can Volkswagen deceive the audience with this "up-to-down" strategy?

It is worth noting that when the new Accord went on sale last year, Honda's "increased oil" problem had already been solved, and it was obvious that the 1.5T engine carried by the new Accord had been revamped. The new Accord did not show up in the "oil valve" recall, and in the poster, the Honda 1.5T engine "oil valve" was turned out again in the first engine comparison.

In addition to Accord, Suiteng L also attacked his "eldest cousin" Passat, which is "crazy to fight even his own people?"

As long as there is such a comparison of publicity, there is basically no "justice" to talk about, like this poster, Suiteng car is the latest 2019 model, while the "hanging" Passat is 2017, and now that the 2019 Passat is already on the market, this comparison is simply misleading to the audience.

Even if it is often sprayed by netizens as "Chinese special car" and "skin-pulling car", Volkswagen still ranks first in the domestic market, and its products are good or bad for the time being, which must be inseparable from its sparing publicity, but marketing publicity should be enough. The means of raising yourself and belittling your opponents will only make consumers feel disgusted.
