In recent years, the rapid development of new energy vehicles has brought a new product experience to young consumers, and the pattern of the automobile market has also been completely renewed. At the same time as the fierce involution of new energy vehicles, fuel vehicles are also rapidly iterating their own products to improve their market competitiveness.
For example, many people believe that luxury brand models are truly high-end products, and they are increasingly losing their long-term brand dominance at a time when cars are highly involuted, a trend that is especially evidenced by the Tiguan L Pro, which has a "smart ceiling for oil vehicles". The arrival of this mid-size SUV with a starting price of about 250,000 yuan has made luxury brand models such as Audi Q5, BMW X3 and Mercedes-Benz GLC extremely frustrated.
Of course, the Tiguan L Pro may not have the last laugh. As a benchmark model of China's high-end brand "luxury driving SUV", Xingtu Lingyun also has a strong market dominance, focusing on strong control, high safety and intelligent experience, which is widely sought after by young users. This year, in April, Xingtu Lingyun brought two King Edition models, and the price dropped to 129,900 yuan, which is less than half of the cost of the Volkswagen Tiguan L Pro four-wheel drive Zhizun version model. Next, we will compare the Xingtu Lingyun 400T King Edition priced at 139,900 yuan with the Volkswagen Tiguan L Pro four-wheel drive Zhizun Edition to see the real value of the benchmark models of the same leading car companies.
Powertrain The Startour Lingyun has a more powerful power reserve, and the chassis tuning is the same as that of the Tiguan L PRO
The Xingtu brand has always been a "people-oriented" brand concept, so it has really made a lot of effort in terms of power, handling, driving experience and comfort. In terms of powertrain, Xingtu Lingyun provides two sets of configurations: 1.6TGDI+7-speed DCT and 2.0TGDI+8AT. Among them, the 1.6TGDI has a maximum power of 148kW and a maximum torque of 300Nm; The 2.0TGDI has a maximum output of 192kW and a maximum torque of 400Nm. In addition, the 2.0T high-spec model is also equipped with a four-wheel drive system.

The Tiguan LPro also provides two sets of configurations: 2.0T high/low power + 7-speed DCT; The high-power version has a maximum output of 162 kW and a maximum torque of 350 Nm, while the low-power version has a maximum output of 137 kW and a maximum torque of 320 Nm.
In comparison, the total dynamic performance of Xingtu Lingyun 2.0T is better than that of Tiguan L PRO, the former has stronger power performance, smooth transmission response and stronger durability, which is also one of the biggest advantages of Xingtu's products, after all, the surging power performance will always be the favorite of young people.
In terms of driving experience, the power output of the Xingtu Lingyun King Edition is adjusted more smoothly, the throttle response is also more linear, and the power burst is not abrupt, but the explosive power is still so durable, and the acceleration feeling of the vehicle speed above 120km/h is still strong.
It is commendable that the chassis tuning of the Lingyun King Edition is stable and heavy, quite German chassis tuning genes, and the overall tuning of the four-wheel independent suspension system is soft and hard, which also makes it take into account the comfort at the same time, it can provide good support for the body when driving passionately, thereby improving the handling and playability of the new car, which is the same as the chassis style of the Tiguan L PRO.
Safety performance Xingtu Lingyun security protection is more advanced Tiguan L Pro intelligent driving is more powerful
The level of safety has always been the focus of great concern for car users. Xingtu Lingyun also adheres to the concept of safety first of the Xingtu brand, and has won the excellent evaluation of high gold content. Relying on the M3X Mars Architecture 2.0, it is tailored to match the body structure of the cage space capsule, 85% ultra-high-strength steel with a compressive strength of 1500 megapascals, and hot-stamping super steel is also used in key parts such as A/B pillars, and the vehicle can withstand a top pressure load of 10 tons. In the face of an impact, the architecture effectively relieves pressure and disperses energy to minimize danger. Because of this, Lingyun also achieved the highest score in the C-NCAP crash test, far exceeding its peers.
At the same time, Xingtu Lingyun is also equipped with main/passenger airbags, front seat side airbags, and front and rear side air curtains, giving drivers and passengers all-round protection without dead ends. It has front parking radar, rear collision warning, 540° panoramic image, high-definition driving recorder, 15 high-precision sensors (2 millimeter wave + 8 ultrasonic radar + 5 cameras) and 21 ADAS assisted driving systems, and the safety protection level is full.
In terms of safety, the Tiguan L PRO also continues Volkswagen's high standards. The new car adopts a high-rigidity and safety body design, and the proportion of high-strength and above steel in the whole car reaches an astonishing 92%. It not only improves the overall strength of the body, but also ensures the safety of passengers to a large extent. In addition, it is equipped with a number of active and passive safety features, such as AEB automatic emergency braking system, 360° driving camera, Lane Assist and other advanced active safety technologies to comprehensively improve driving safety.
In contrast, Xingtu Lingyun has a more comprehensive configuration in terms of security, and has made great efforts in both visible and invisible places, which can be called a security benchmark at the same level. As for the Tiguan L Pro, the biggest advantage is the powerful intelligent driving system.
The cost of owning a car Xingtu Lingyun is more sincere, and the whole vehicle is guaranteed for life, and the price of Tiguan L Pro is a hard injury
At a time when consumption is becoming more rational and conservative, the "purchase cost" and "car ownership cost" of vehicles are the focus of young people's attention.
In order to allow users to buy a car without worry, Xingtu Auto brings additional "luxury gifts: including warranty gifts and traffic gifts" to users who purchase Lingyun King Edition: "The first owner has a lifetime warranty for the whole vehicle, so that the vehicle maintenance will never be "past the warranty period", and the cost of the user's car will be considered; The first car owner will have free basic traffic for life, and entertainment traffic will be free for 3 years (10G/month), so you can enjoy the convenient life experience brought by intelligent networking anytime and anywhere.
At the same time, in response to the call of the national policy of "car trade-in", Xingtu Auto launched a "price in place" whole series of huge discount activities: users who purchase Xingtu Lingyun models can enjoy a replacement subsidy of up to 18,000 yuan (only for Lingyun King Edition).
On the other hand, the Tiguan L Pro does not follow the usual path and does not roll the price and value. The Tiguan L Pro has not been boasted of price reduction, but it has also launched rights and interests such as full exemption of purchase tax for a limited time, 20% off for 3 years, worry-free maintenance for 3 years, and limited gift of optional packages, which have eliminated users' worries to a certain extent.
On the whole, Xingtu Lingyun has put a lot of effort into the cost of car purchase, car use and even post-maintenance, with full marks of sincerity and touching details; The Tiguan L Pro, on the other hand, focuses more on value than price, which has a certain relationship with its own brand positioning.
Epilogue:
On the whole, Xingtu Lingyun and Tiguan L Pro are both momentary brightness in terms of product value, but the difference between the two is that the price is very different, which has become a gap that can never be crossed.
At present, China's auto market is undergoing a profound change from brand-oriented to value-oriented, consumers no longer only value the brand halo, but pay more attention to the test drive value and cost performance of products, and the era of attracting a large number of fans with the halo of luxury brands is gone. This is also the reason why Xingtu Lingyun is favored by young users, and first-line luxury brands such as Tiguan and even BBA are in decline.
