Bitauto Original With the liberalization of the second-child policy, 6-seat/7-seat models have gradually entered people's car purchase lists. In the early years, the only options for buying a multi-passenger car were MPVs. However, many people felt that business-oriented MPVs looked like drivers when driven. If you don’t like this feeling but have higher riding needs, Then you might as well consider an SUV.
A 6/7-seater SUV couldn’t be more suitable. However, the third-row seating space of 7-seat SUV models below mid-size is not optimistic. Therefore, if people in the car want to have a comfortable riding environment and at the same time meet their needs for advanced driving status, then medium and large SUVs seem to be the ideal choice. The only option. Currently, in the price range of 300,000-500,000 yuan, the German twins FAW-Volkswagen Landing and SAIC-Volkswagen Touron have obviously changed their identities to form a competitive relationship, so how should you choose?
Comparison of models
FAW-Volkswagen Landscape: 380TSI four-wheel drive luxury Jiajing Edition Pro version, official guide price: 336,900 yuan
SAIC Volkswagen Touron: 380TSI four-wheel drive luxury version, official guide price: 342,000 yuan
FAW-Volkswagen adopts the SMV Concept concept car shape. The thick chrome decoration runs across the front of the car. The chrome trim panel extending from the A-pillar to the D-pillar is a finishing touch and is refined. The effect is remarkable. Both the front and rear adopt a through-type light group design, which is elegant but not vulgar and just right.
The front face of the SAIC Volkswagen Touron after its mid-term facelift is compared with the old model It's a lot more fashionable, but the overall design language is still straight lines. The slightly square shape is more stable in visual effect, which is completely different from the style of Lanjing.
Each design aspect has its own characteristics, the landscape is newer and more avant-garde, while the Touron is Still maintaining the calm design characteristics. However, in terms of exterior decoration, the main model of the Lanjing is equipped with 20-inch wheels, while the main model of the Touron is equipped with 19-inch wheels. The Lanjing has 8 body colors to choose from, while the Touron only has 4 options. In addition, the Lanjing mid-range model is equipped with 8 exterior ambient lights, a welcome light blanket and other configurations, which is undoubtedly a plus in terms of luxury creation.
It is worth mentioning that Lanjing is equipped with the IQ.Light intelligent LED matrix headlight system , in different situations such as meeting, overtaking, high speed, bad weather, etc.When driving, the lighting mode will be automatically switched according to different situations. For example, when meeting another car, it will automatically avoid direct sunlight on the driver; when the user is driving and turning, IQ.Light will automatically adjust the low beam illumination range according to the steering angle. At the same time, the steering auxiliary light can also further extend the lighting range and provide the driver with a larger lighting area.
The Lanjing is based on the Volkswagen MQB platform and is Volkswagen’s largest SUV in the world. In terms of body size, the length, width and height are 5152/2002/1795mm respectively. The distance reached 2980mm. The wheelbase of Tuang remains the same as that of Lanjing, while the length, width and height are 5052/1989/1773mm respectively, which is smaller than that of Lanjing.
In terms of actual perception, it is obvious that Lan Jing has more aura. I have never understood why the Lanjing is larger than the Touron before. I learned from Volkswagen insiders that the internal product positioning of the Lanjing is higher than that of the Touron. This also explains the larger size problem. In addition, There is a more comprehensive and rich configuration.
Lanjing adopts Volkswagen’s latest digital cockpit style , adopts a dual-screen design, of which the 10.25-inch full LCD instrument has excellent clarity and smoothness, setting a benchmark in its class; the 12-inch central control screen has built-in Volkswagen's latest CNS The 3.0 system has a high degree of integration, rich functions, and optimized UI design. It is worth mentioning that Internet functions such as wireless CarPlay and voice recognition are not absent.
The changes in the interior of the new Touron have also been changed compared to the old model. The sense of technology has been further improved, and there is also a light-emitting decorative panel in front of the co-pilot, but the overall style can be seen to be simple. Touron's central control screen is 12.3 inches and has a built-in MOS 3.2 intelligent system. It runs smoothly and has no problem with functionality.
Lanjing adopts a suspended center console design that is very rare for products of the same level and type. The operation functionality is more integrated and more importantly It is the traditional center console design of BiTuon that can bring larger and richer storage space, as well as a "special feeling" and "freshness".
In addition, the different characteristics of the two can also be reflected in many small functions and details. Lanjing is equipped with 30-color adjustable translucent atmosphere lights (except the entry version). Relying on the enveloping design style, compared with the traditional atmosphere lights of Tuang light strip, the light effect will be softer and the atmosphere will be more vivid. Warm.
In addition, Lanjing’s instrument panel and door panels are softly wrapped and designed with real stitching (part of Tuon’s slush molding material), giving Lanjing a better feel and luxurious feel. . Moreover, the front doors of Lanjing adopt multi-layer soundproof glass, which makes it quieter.
Touron’s top models of both engines have been upgraded to Harman Kardon sound systems, but Lanjing has extended this configuration to more models.
Taking the main model selected this time as an example, Lanjing is equipped with Travel Assist for the entire journey Driving assistance systems include lane keeping, road traffic recognition, active braking and other functions, which Touron does not have.
This is a pity compared to the Touron. The Travel currently equipped by Volkswagen The integrated functions of the Assist full-journey intelligent driving assistance system are very rich, such as lane keeping, which uses cameras around the car body to identify lane lines and firmly fix the car body in the center of the lane line;
The road traffic recognition function can Driving road traffic signs are transferred from the external environment to the dashboard, allowing users to When users go to some unfamiliar cities or roads, they can avoid traffic rules;
Collision alarm and active braking can be put together. The vehicle will monitor the safe distance of surrounding vehicles through radar probes around the body. If the speed is too fast, it may cause a rear-end collision with the vehicle in front, so active braking will brake one step ahead of you.
FAW-Volkswagen Landscape and SAIC-Volkswagen Touron They all adopt a 7-seater layout, but all Lanjing series support 6/7-seater options, which meet different consumer needs. Among them, the 6-seater version's independent executive seats and 16mm ultra-low floor are the highlights. The ample leg space makes the second row of seats quite comfortable, and it also makes it easier for third row passengers to get in and out.
The 7-seater model focuses on changing use space to meet rigid needs. Due to the difference in size and design focus, the trunk space of the Lanjing ranges from 357-2451L, while that of the Touron ranges from 286-2415L. When the third row of seats are folded down, the Lanjing has an absolute advantage in carrying space.
Even if the third row of seats is opened normally, the trunk can still provide good carrying capacity, so you no longer have to worry about whether to "sit people" or "put things". With its advantages in body size, Lanjing can not only meet business needs, but also take into account home use.
In addition, Lanjing is also thoughtfully equipped with air-conditioning outlets on the B-pillar to bring more comfort to rear passengers, while Touron is not equipped with this feature. In terms of safety configuration, both Both vehicles perform well. The Touron has 7 airbags, while the Lanjing has been further upgraded with 9 airbags to fully cover the passengers in the car.
Both models are equipped with 2.0T and 2.5T engines with two displacements and three power engines. Taking the main sales model as an example, the same 2.0T high-power engine (380TSI) has a maximum horsepower of 220Ps and a peak torque of 350N·m. German car tradition, actual acceleration The level is faster than the data calibration, so there is no problem driving two medium and large SUVs, even when full.
But it needs to be emphasized that because FAW-Volkswagen wins first delivery of Volkswagen Group’s latest DQ501 gearbox Taking advantages, Lanjing becomes the first model (domestic) to be equipped with the DQ501 seven-speed wet dual-clutch gearbox. So what is the advantage of this gearbox? It just has more "1" than the DQ500.
First of all, as the top gearbox matching the Volkswagen transverse platform, DQ501 can carry a torque transmission of 600N·m. Secondly, it has improved the old version of the bearing solution. Finally, it has added a dual-pump system (mechanical + electronic) and the latest controller equipped by FAW-Volkswagen, which can greatly improve transmission efficiency, transmission speed and Improve cooling system.
The Lanjing is equipped with a 4Motion permanent four-wheel drive system, that is, full-time four-wheel drive, while the Touron uses a timely four-wheel drive system. The Lanjing is equipped with a timely four-wheel drive system. The Jingjing can maintain full four-wheel drive, and has a variety of driving modes to choose from, such as sport, comfort, off-road, and snow.
And these configurations are only available in the Lanjing and Touron. reflected in the sales model, and The price of Lanjing is even lower.
Summary: After comparison, despite the lower price, the main sales model of Lanjing has richer technology configurations, driving assistance functions, driving modes and more. The comfort configuration that can improve the quality of the vehicle is relatively superior in overall strength. The reasons for this may include "new arrival" and "internal positioning". I hope this article can bring you some help in choosing a car.
