foreshadowing the mass market segments in recent years, is definitely activists, FAW-Volkswagen have mountain exploration, exploration of new models such as the song continued listing, the face of today’s market demands, always style calm the public, but also have to consider more younger market, it is also adding a new member of the new, small SUV FAW-Volkswagen exploration shadow.
We know that the current joint venture currently many small SUV models and fierce competition, the probe can capture the hearts and minds of young film market? What special highlights?
probe positioning shadow in the end what?
on exploration shadow, I want to answer to everyone’s problem is its positioning problem. Explore shadow based on public MQB-A0 platform to build, because from the appearance and size point of view, it and the SAIC and FAW-Volkswagen Volkswagen Tiguan armor exploration song is very similar, so a lot of consumers do not know in the end is what film probe positioning, how to choose it ?
First, exploration and transit shadow armor also located a small SUV, just the Shanghai Volkswagen and FAW Volkswagen sibling, similar to the relationship Bora and Lavida, but the shadow explore more armor than the way manual transmission models Therefore starting to lower the price, the same top with price.
Second, the probe stage song compact SUV, Movies positioned slightly higher than a probe, the size and configuration is slightly higher than the price is of course the official guide probe Movies higher.
in complete understanding of positioning, we take a look in the end how to explore the car shadow.
in line with the appearance of younger market
First, the car you can see the typical FAW design features of popular models, inserted into the headlight design front grille, which is also a reference to the overseas edition T-Cross design, so let it be compared to the way armor looks younger and more sports.
Exploration shadow designs still have R-Line version and the regular version, my test drive of the conventional version, from a price point of view, R-Line version to more expensive than the same configuration models 3,000 yuan, the specific choice depends on consumption’Own preferences.
Currently, only low Movies probe with 1.5L models yet still only a halogen lamp, an LED light source are all other models, and also with other LED daytime running, automatic headlights, turn assist lamp, lighting more concrete configuration.
Since the short side of the body before and after the suspension, the body can see that the ratio of its small SUV, a vehicle body is typically small SUV size, length of 4194mm, a width of 1760mm, height 1601mm, wheelbase 2651mm, is the smallest Volkswagen SUV models.
B-pillar door to see a Volkswagon’s logo, such details are a lot of younger models currently on the more common character design, exploration and shadow details do not ignore the younger .
In order to fit more and younger motion, two-color wheels, and the bold visual effect, matching Hankook KINERGY EX tire size of 205 / 50R17.
rear itself is relatively compact, and great especially brisk through taillight, taillight light source mounted on the black decorative panel, but the middle portion and does not emit light, in recognition of the day and the effect would be better.
texture of the interior younger but less than
overall interior design style is very familiar to the public, not too many bright spots, but it seems to use a lot of personality patterns and trim paint, there are some models with body colored trim to highlight the vitality of the car, air conditioning and some practical features still use physical buttons, which is still on ensure a strong operating convenience. .
However, in the control materials used throughout the front, only the door elbow portion is wrapped soft leather, the other panels are all rigid, strong plastic feel, good pattern panel He pulled one back.
1 Probe Movies.Wyatt 5L above all models with a 10.3-inch full LCD instrument panel, you can adjust different interface, it displays the information rich and delicate 1280 * 480 resolution imaging. In the control display operating system CNS 2.0, fully functional.
For younger, using a variety of materials stitched leather seats of design, materials used are more meticulous, ride comfort is great, but one thing, even with the highest equally is adjusted manually, this lack of sincerity.
Even small SUV, to ensure absolute space, this is the current domestic market demand, exploration shadow of a finger rear leg fists, head three means that performance has been enough for everyday use, so this regard, please do not worry.
while the entire system is also provided after the ejection outlet, below the double matching USB interface, to meet the basic practicality, caring for the rear passengers in place.
within a test drive but not unexpected surprises
exploration shadow 280TSI momentum we are already familiar the classic Volkswagen 1.4T engine of the EA211 match 7DCT transmission, 150 horsepower, 250Nmiddot; m of torque, in fact, this car is definitely in the not unexpected, but still there is a little surprise.
direction first gentle touch, with most of the current MQB platform models the same characteristics, but this advantage is particularly significant light steering for this small SUV, the control them very easy, in-situ steering and sharp turns can be operated with one hand, not the driver.
turn to say this power system, the engine features EA211 obvious, point throttle slightly, to about 2000 rpm and peak torque of the outbreak, a strong impetus to advance the body, which in Dalian multi-species ramp terrain also has a good dynamic performance. After
while tightening the foot speed immediately decreases, but still there is a sliding sense, there is not a drag gear,With the right engine and gearbox, if the old driver, then tap on the gas can be directly returned to the foot brake pedal again, there will be a very good fuel economy.
probe Movies use a common non-independent torsion beam rear suspension small SUV, the processing for the road surface into two layers, a first layer of pavement trivial processing power, which because the surface layer of the partial suspension tuning and comfortable, although there was a little shock passed piecemeal cars, but within an acceptable range, to ensure daily comfort. The second layer is its ability to handle large bumps, it limited the ability of the suspension torsion beam portion of the road, some impact on ride comfort.
Summary:
film is the exploration FAW-Volkswagen’s first entry-level SUV, but it SAIC has the advantage compared to the mass transit armor, more manual models, from the sale of lower prices as long as 119,900, compared explore their own songs, performance space enough to use, almost the same power and there is no obvious problems and the price is enough low, more down to earth compared to the Jetta model VS5, a popular landmark win half. So for those who love the exploration shadow public, young people with limited fixed budgets.
