AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)04/26 Report--

It is believed that for most consumers, car brands will be given priority when buying cars, because different car brands can not only bring different driving experiences to car owners, but also make car owners have different views. After all, in the domestic environment, the phenomenon of "looking at the logo" often exists, so that many owners of a certain Thailand and a certain wind change their standard cars, Porsche and Land Rover.

Recently, some netizens found that this phenomenon unexpectedly appeared under the Volkswagen brand, perhaps some netizens are very confused, why is it the public? Volkswagen is often regarded as a very ordinary brand, and even millions of Huiteng appears to be so "low-key" with Volkswagen LOGO that it is mistaken for the embarrassing situation of Passat. But it is such a popular brand that has been "modified" by some face-saving consumers. And from the pictures taken, there is no sense of disobedience, and netizens who do not know it can not even see that this is a "copycat car".

In fact, the model is not entirely a "shanzhai car", because this is from FAW-Volkswagen's Jetta VS5, only partially modified in China net, replaced with Volkswagen Mountain Exploration China Network, because the two models are from FAW-Volkswagen, so the design of China net is also somewhat similar. And the FAW-Volkswagen Jetta VS5 is based on the Volkswagen MQB platform, so it is similar in size to Tanyue.

In fact, the VS5 is the first SUV model after FAW-Volkswagen established a new brand last year, with a price of 8.48-112800 yuan. Except for the lowest manual gear with a price of 8.48 yuan, the automatic gear starts at 91800 yuan, all of which are equipped with 1.4T EA211 engines.

It is positioned as a compact SUV, the length, width and height of the body size are 4419/1841/1616mm, and the wheelbase is 2630mm. And the rear of the vehicle will also be marked with the "FAW-Volkswagen" logo.

Although the car comes from FAW-Volkswagen, the LOGO suspended by its models is not the logo of the Volkswagen brand, but the Jetta J brand. Because this is the brand of FAW-Volkswagen in order to focus on the middle and low-end market, it directly rises the "Jetta" from a car department to a sub-brand, making it independent, and the design inspiration is also derived from the initials "J" of "JETTA".

Although there is no Volkswagen logo, the brand's models also rely on Volkswagen's "three pieces" and core technology to achieve sales growth, selling a total of 43000 vehicles in the four months on the market, of which the VS5 is the brand's best-selling model. However, because some consumers feel that since the model is from Volkswagen, it should be supported by the Volkswagen logo, so that some consumers are "modified" to satisfy their own vanity. Some netizens even said: "the public did not expect that they would one day become the subject of a new bid."

As a matter of fact, the change of standard will occur to different car owners every year, whether it is to change from low price to high price for the sake of high profile, or from high price to low price for the sake of low profile, but this is illegal. According to the relevant provisions of the "measures for the Administration of Motor vehicles", car owners change vehicle trademarks without authorization, which is inconsistent with registered vehicle brands. If there is a traffic accident, it will be very difficult for citizens and traffic police to judge the true brand of vehicles, which will bring inconvenience to accident handling. Therefore, we still ask the majority of drivers to strengthen the study of laws and regulations, do not do illegal things because of vanity.
