AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)02/05 Report--
Passat, as one of the representative models of SAIC Volkswagen, has been in the domestic "wind and water rise", but it is frequently difficult because of the questioning and reduction of the explosion of the research center. In order to regain consumer confidence, SAIC Volkswagen has made comprehensive adjustments to Passat, mainly to strengthen its safety, and launched a brand-new 2021 model with a price range of 1859 - 282,900 yuan.
According to the brand-new 2021 Passat models brought by SAIC Volkswagen this time, the price of the old models remains unchanged for the new models, and a total of 8 configuration models are launched. Compared with the unchanged price, the biggest change in the new car is the detailed adjustment of the appearance. Power is still used 1.4T/2.0T low power and 2.0T high power engines.
In fact, the new car is an annual model, the overall and current models are not much different, only updated in some details. Specifically, the front face of the 2021 Passat continues to feature a multi-spoke air intake grille decorated with a large amount of chrome. The difference is that the fog lamp area of the new car adopts the design of plug-in model, and the chrome trim strip with "C" shape extends forward to surround the middle, which is more recognizable as a whole.
There were no significant changes in the side and rear styling of the car. In terms of body size, length, width and height remain 4933/1836/1469mm and wheelbase is 2871 mm.
Interior, also continued the current Volkswagen family design, business version and elite version will be equipped with 8-inch central control screen, luxury version above the model will be upgraded to 9.2-inch central control screen.
In terms of power, the new Passat still offers 1.4T, 2.0T low power version and 2.0T high power version three power systems, the maximum output power is 150 horsepower, 186 horsepower and 220 horsepower respectively, matched with 7-speed dual clutch gearbox.
It is worth mentioning that in terms of configuration, the new car is equipped with front double airbags, front side airbags, front and rear head air curtains, EPB, automatic parking, ESP and other equipment.
It can be seen that the new model has become more important to safety. After all, it used to be the benchmark model of domestic B-class sedan. Previously, due to the collision of "A-pillar" in Zhongbao Research, the sales volume has fallen sharply since last year. It has fallen out of the camp of Chinese B-class car Three Swordsmen, and has been left far behind by Accord and Camry.
After nearly a year of public opinion criticism, Volkswagen officials have made special efforts to strengthen the safety of Passat models. According to previous media reports, Volkswagen has strengthened the safety structures of A-pillars and other vehicles, including many of its models.
In this regard, Passat successfully learned the full G (excellent) score after re-participating in the middle insurance research. In the 25% offset collision, the A-pillar did not bend at all. Although such a "make-up test" has caused the image of Volkswagen Passat to collapse in the hearts of consumers, from the performance of the latest models, it also reflects the sincerity of SAIC Volkswagen to Passat, further improving Passat safety.
At present, the image collapse of Volkswagen Passat has not been as strong as the previous price, for example, 185,900 yuan entry version model, terminal discount up to 50,000 yuan, the lowest equipped naked car price is less than 140,000 yuan, no doubt let Passat brand premium ability greatly discount.
In any case, Volkswagen reduction is a fact, but in order to regain the brand image, SAIC Volkswagen has also given certain sincerity, as to whether to recover the image that has collapsed in the hearts of consumers, return to the domestic B-class car head market, can only be decided by the market.
