In the domestic medium and large SUV car market, it can be said that the competition is still quite fierce, among them, as a representative of FAW-Volkswagen's medium and large SUVs, the positioning of the large five-seat is very competitive in the market, and now, in order to increase sales, Volkswagen Lancun has launched the public model as a new facelift model of the whole system, and the entry-level model has dropped to 242,900 yuan, and the cost performance is still relatively high. Let's take a look at how the Volkswagen Range Cruiser performs?
In terms of appearance, the Lancun Crowd continues the design style of the Volkswagen family, and implants a large number of sports kits, making the shape more youthful and sporty. The large horizontal trim on the front face is covered by a layered through-diamond grid grille and blackened, which visually widens the horizontal sense of size. The headlight clusters are integrated into the grille, and the interior is equipped with LED light sources as standard, while the eyebrows and the front of the hood have a continuous light strip that extends along both sides of the hood to the rearview mirror area, making it highly recognizable at night.
From the side, this car adopts a typical thick body, with a suspended roof effect, which looks full of atmosphere, and the combination of black roof and chrome upper window line weakens the edge of the top area, while the top line gradually slopes down in the tail area, forming a relatively compact body shape. The enlarged rear window glass and the openable panoramic sunroof allow natural light inside. The door surfaces are recessed, the side skirts are also horizontally matched, and the underbody is covered with black components to enhance the car's sporty look.
The rear design is relatively flat, the rear surround has a clear crease structure, and the tail shape presents a convex three-dimensional effect. Three "X" shaped light clusters are added to the left and right tail light clusters, and the large black guard plate with the exhaust decoration on both sides also adds to the overall performance range.
Entering the car, we can see that this Volkswagen Range Patrol Crowd still adopts the new design concept of the Volkswagen family, the middle of the center console adds a horizontal through metal trim structure, and plays a role in separating the upper and lower areas of the center console, while the front of the passenger area also has a horizontal air outlet, adding a sense of hierarchy to the table. In order to facilitate control, the 12-inch central control screen and the 10.25-inch full LCD instrument panel are composed of a dual screen, and a short paddle-type gear lever is added to the armrest area.
The vehicle is equipped with a new version of the MIB system, and the improvement of software and hardware makes the system operation response fast and smooth. The car is not only equipped with GPS and multimedia entertainment functions, but also supports CarPlay and CarLife mobile phone connection, and the addition of Internet of Vehicles and OTA functions also improves the intelligence level and function scalability of the vehicle.
As a medium and large SUV with a large five-seat layout, the Range Cruiser has a size performance of 4936 (4949) * 2015 * 1756 (1767/1772) mm, and the wheelbase is unified to 2980mm, providing enough longitudinal size and legroom for rear passengers. For reference, the 178cm tall experiencer enters the driver's seat and adjusts the main driver's seat according to his own habits, leaving a punch in the headspace; When you get to the back seat of the main driver, you have more than two fists of legroom. The rear seats can be folded down in a 4/6 ratio, and the trunk space of 656L has been expanded, which can effectively meet the loading needs of passengers.
In terms of power, the Volkswagen Range Cruiser is equipped with 2.0T power, divided into two models, 380TSI and 330TSI, with an output of 162kW (220Ps)/350N·m and 137kW (186Ps)/320Nm respectively, and is equipped with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, which has improved ride and reliability.
From the perspective of actual driving experience, the adjustment of the throttle is relatively balanced, the power output and the throttle angle maintain a relatively linear match, and there is sufficient acceleration performance in the middle and high-speed range. In addition, the 380TSI models are equipped with the 4MOTION all-wheel drive system as standard, which allows each wheel to quickly scan the road information and complete the power distribution when facing general unpaved roads.
In general, as a medium and large SUV, Volkswagen Range Cruiser has spacious space performance and balanced performance, coupled with the current relatively attractive discounts, it is expected that the sales in the later period will also respond positively, if you want to buy an SUV, will you consider this car?
