New car "combines" Volkswagen's 2018 new car inventory


For the general public, the upcoming 2018 will be a major product year, especially in the Chinese market. After many SUVs such as T-Roc, T-Cross, and Touareg emerged in succession, the dense layout of the Volkswagen SUVs, which can be called a matrix version, was enough to scare opponents. As early as May, my colleague Zhouyi had carried out combing and forward-looking for the public SUV camp, and I will not repeat it here. In fact, in addition to the new SUVs, Volkswagen also planned for the Chinese market from the entry to the flagship of a number of heavy domestic cars in 2018, including the new POLO, the new LaVida, the new Bora, the new Passat, Arteon and other replacement/new models . Today, let's talk about these new cars in detail.

● No. 1 Special Supply Vehicle: SAIC Volkswagen New Long Yi Features: Change to MQB Platform

As the first new car to show true capacity, SAMSUNG's all-new generation of Lam Yat's camouflage report has been exposed by us earlier this month. The biggest feature of the new car is that it has abandoned the PQ34 platform that has been used for many years, replaced it with an MQB modular platform, and replaced it with a more atmospheric design. According to previous reports, the new car will be released and listed in 2018. At the same time, a new generation of Longxing (namely the two-box version of the new Laguna) will also come with one in 2018.

The front face of the new LaVida uses a front face design similar to the latest products such as the new Touareg and Arteon. The grille is connected to the LED light set to form a T-shape, which looks stylish and stylish. In the rear part of the car, the new car is still a simple populist style. The overall appearance does not have many features. However, it has added a bilateral two-outlet exhaust layout to the high-end model, which looks more graded. In addition, the difference between the appearance of the new LaVida high and low models in the appearance is also reflected in whether it is equipped with Fog Lights, chrome trim and sunroof and so on.

In terms of size, the new wheelbase has a 78mm increase in wheelbase compared to the current models, and the length, width, and height are all increased in different ranges. It is expected that the performance of the interior space will be further improved on the basis of the existing good ones. More praise from consumers.

In terms of power, the new LaVida will be powered by three 1.2T, 1.4T and 1.5L engines with maximum power of 116 hp, 150 hp and 116 hp respectively. The 1.6L engine used in the current models for many years will be cancelled. In the transmission system, it is expected that the new car will continue to match the 5-speed manual, 6-speed manual and 7-speed dual clutch transmission.

● Special Vehicle No. 2: FAW-Volkswagen New Bora features: Replacement with MQB platform, officially listed in September 2018

Since the start of FAW-Volkswagen's production of the Jetta MK4, the Polaris model of the PQ34 platform has been in China for 16 years. Earlier this month, we acquired a new Bora model from FAW-Volkswagen. Road test spy photos. Like the new LaVida, the new Bora has also been moved to the MQB platform and abandoned the PQ34 platform that has been used for years. According to the FAW-Volkswagen new car plan we have exposed, the new Bora will be on sale in September 2018.

Due to the camouflage stickers, the appearance of the new Bora in the spy photos is still difficult to see clearly, but it can be basically confirmed that the new car will continue to adopt the popular traditional front face design, that is, the penetrating transverse air intake grille and the headlights phase. The overall layout is similar to cash Changteng.

The side of the new car looks more slender, or thanks to the increase in the size of the car body, it is expected that the new car will have a similar "growth" margin with the new Lai Yi reported above. In the power section, we expect that the new car will also have the same power system as the new LaVida, offering 1.2T, 1.4T and 1.5L engines, and matching the 5-speed manual, 7-speed dual clutch and 6-speed manual according to the different engines. Transmission.

Special car articles summary:

The Volkswagen PQ34 platform was born in the mid-1990s. Representative models include the first-generation Audi A3, the first-generation Audi TT, the first-generation new Beetle and the fourth-generation golf. Currently, the current models are Bora, Laguna, and Collar. Other models are still built by the upgraded PQ34 platform. In fact, the old platform with mature technology is all for the purpose of reducing research and development costs. For most consumers, the difference in driving experience between the old and new platforms is not so different, as long as space, configuration, etc. are basically the same. The demand can be satisfied while the cost performance is high enough. Therefore, the sales performance of these vehicles in the current period is still very good, especially the long-term entrenched in the Chinese Automobile Association car sales chart of the Long Yat. So why should the new LaVida and New Bora change to the MQB platform?

Due to cost and limitations of the old platform, if we continue to use the PQ34 platform with the old age to conduct R&D of new-generation models, it will inevitably need to invest more funds to upgrade, and it will be possible to adapt to meet the needs of today's consumers. Configure performance. For such an old platform that has been active for more than 20 years and has already recovered costs, the latest electrical systems and the latest car networking configurations are too advanced. At the same time, if the old platform is simply and crudely lengthened, it will not be able to satisfy the needs of space upgrades. Therefore, it is not worth the trouble to invest in R&D for the old platform. In contrast, Volkswagen's latest MQB platform relies on modularity and can significantly reduce R&D costs and evenly distribute manufacturing costs through the sharing of parts between different models, and it also has better adaptability to current new technologies. Therefore, it is also expected that Lanyi and Bora will use the MQB platform.

For consumers who purchase Polaris and LaVida, it is not important what kind of platform the vehicle adopts. As a pure family car, Bora and Lam Yien are competent enough to ensure good value, space, configuration, price and reliability. In terms of competitors, in addition to competing with each other, New Bora and New Long Yat will continue to compete with the Nissan Sylphy, Toyota Corolla, and Honda Ling Pai models for the compact car market.

● Global Car No. 1: SAIC Volkswagen New POLO
Features: Change to MQB platform, expected to start production in 2018

Volkswagen POLO has been introduced to domestic production and sales by Shanghai Volkswagen (now SAIC-Volkswagen) since the 4th generation of the model in 2002, and has subsequently become a popular small-sized car. The domestically-purchased POLO currently being sold is the fifth-generation model after the mid-term change. At the Frankfurt Motor Show, which opened in September this year, the new sixth-generation POLO has officially made its debut. The new car was built on the basis of the Volkswagen MQB A0 platform, and its appearance, interior, configuration, and body size have been improved.

The appearance of the new POLO is still small, but the details of the sense of technology and texture is very obvious, wave-shaped LED daytime running lights, LED taillights, exquisite chrome decoration and more angular body lines, showing a boutique Small car should have a sense of refinement. In addition, in terms of dimensions, the new POLO has a 94mm increase in wheelbase and 351 litres of trunk space, which has also improved its space performance.

The interior of the new POLO is not to be outdone. Thanks to the adaptability of the MQB platform to the latest electrification equipment, the new POLO will also provide full-liquid-crystal instruments, the latest vehicle systems and driving mode selection functions on high-end models. Therefore, this new generation of POLO can be said to be both internal and external configuration to the front.

In the power sector, the overseas version of the new POLO is equipped with three gasoline engines of 1.0L/1.0T/1.5T and a 1.6T diesel engine, with a maximum power of 65-150 hp; the new POLO GTI is equipped with a 2.0T petrol engine, with maximum power.

Prior to this, we have exposed SAIC Motor’s announcement of bidding for production-related equipment for the T-Cross and new POLO models, confirming that the new POLO will continue to be produced by SAIC-Volkswagen. We expect that the new car will be listed in 2018, and further consolidate its position in the competition with Honda Fit and Toyota YARiS L Zhixuan and other joint-venture small cars.

● Global Car No. 2 (for China-US Market): SAIC Volkswagen New Passat (NMS NF)
Features: Change to MQB platform, continue to share design with US version, and it is expected to start production in 2018

As we all know, the current SAIC Volkswagen Passat is a domestic version of the US Passat. This car is also known as the Volkswagen NMS (New Midsize Sedan). The cash US Passat/SAIC Volkswagen Passat is based on the upgraded PQ46 platform, which is slightly behind the Passat B8/FAW-VW MAGOTAN. Not long ago foreign media reported that a new generation of US version of Passat (NMS NF) will be officially launched in 2018, which will also be moved to the MQB platform to build.

『Cash American Passat』

The current version of the Passat is based on the Volkswagen PQ46 upgrade platform. The new generation of Passat to be released in 2018 will be replaced by the MQB platform. According to relevant sources in previous reports, changing to an MQB platform does not mean that the new generation of NMS will be the same as the European version of the Passat B8. It will be designed and developed in the United States and will be built to meet the needs of the US market.

"SAIC Volkswagen New Passat production-related equipment tender announcement"

Back to the domestic side, SAIC-Volkswagen had disclosed in a tender announcement for a factory welding equipment in May this year that the SAIC-VW Nanjing plant will manufacture the NMS NF model. The current US version of the Passat is codenamed NMS, the abbreviation for "New Midsize Sedan/New Midsize Sedan," and NF is the official expression of the Volkswagen's successor model (replacement model). Therefore, the NMS NF model is naturally the next-generation Passat.

Based on this, we can guess that the new domestic Passat will share a new design with the US version of the new Passat released in 2018, and will abandon the existing PQ46 platform and move to the latest MQB platform development. It is expected that the new car will not have much change in power, domestic version or still use 1.4T/1.8T/2.0T power, matching dual clutch gearbox.

● Global Car No. 3: FAW-Volkswagen Arteon (CC NF)
Features: "The most beautiful Volkswagen" CC successor, listed in August 2018

"Overseas Arteon"

In addition to the exclusive Huian models in the Chinese market, Volkswagen Arteon, which is already listed on overseas markets, is the top product under the current Volkswagen brand. The appearance of the car received a lot of praises as soon as it appeared, and it also led the design trend of the follow-up new products. As a flagship product, although Arteon and the European version of Passat B8 (the new Magotan prototype) shared many parts and even all interior design, although the driving experience of the two is very similar, but this does not prevent the public positioning Arteon to the brand flagship The location of the car.

Volkswagen supplied the powertrain from Golf R to the Arteon 2.0T 4MOTION model, which enabled it to achieve a measured acceleration time of 0-100km/h in 5.29 seconds, exceeding the Audi A5 45TFSI and the BMW 328i xDrive, and in one fell swoop.
