Recently, news came out on the Internet that SAIC Volkswagen Tuyue XR model is expected to be officially launched on August 30, the new car has been exposed early, in fact, it is a facelifted version of the Tukai model, just like Santana has changed into Lavida XR, and it has become a model under the Tuyue sequence, which means that the threshold of the Tuyue family will be greatly reduced, so as to further consolidate sales and make the sales report look better.
At present, the starting price of the Tuyue family is 158,600 yuan, about 100,000 yuan after the discount, and the starting price of the Tukai model is 115,900 yuan, and about 80,000 yuan after the discount. In terms of appearance, the upper part of the front face of the new car adopts a new energy style design language, quite like the ID family, and the Volkswagen car has a light strip connected to the flat headlight group, which has a good sense of technology. The front bumper has Volkswagen's latest exaggerated through-mouth grille, the upper part is horizontal, the lower part is trapezoidal, and the silver guard plate is added, showing a stronger visual impact.
On the side of the city, the new car is basically the same as the Tukai, and even the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has the iconic B-pillar B logo in the declaration map, highlighting the identity of the model. Measurements of 4355/1762/1605 mm, wheelbase of 2651 mm, is also quite distinct, I believe that familiar with SAIC Volkswagen consumers can see at a glance that the overall simple and fashionable style. In the rear part of the car through the taillights, the shape is not complicated, continuing some of the altered style, but the center can really be lit, showing a stronger sense of technology, below is the Tuyue letter logo, XR letters low-key inlaid in the lower right corner. The rear bumper has a layered silver accent that effectively enhances the hardcore feel.
In terms of power, of course, the new car is equipped with a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine with a maximum power of 110 horsepower, which should be matched with a 6AT gearbox, and the 1.5T version will not be absent, with a maximum power of 160 horsepower, matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox, which completely continues the layout of the Tukai. It is worth looking forward to what kind of performance can be held in the future.
