Tiguan learns from Tesla, replaces the face of Golf 8 with 2.0T to accurately strike BMW X4

Volkswagen’s sport has finally transitioned from design to product itself. After SAIC Volkswagen and FAW-Volkswagen owned the Touron X and Tanyue X respectively, the most popular Volkswagen SUV in China symbolized the "crossover coupe". "The X nameplate is also added.

However, unlike the development of basic transformations on current models by Tuon and Tanyue, SAIC Volkswagen Tiguan X is more like a brand-new product that has completed a major facelift at the same time. There have been significant improvements in styling.

Appearance design

Starting from the front face design, we will find what distinguishes the Volkswagen Tiguan X from the Tiguan L. Like the new generation of Tu Zi generations, Tiguan X also uses a new style of air intake grille with a V-shaped protrusion, but when the styling develops to the details of the headlights, we will find that Tiguan X is from the ID series Incorporating more avant-garde elements, this headlamp with a decorative structure of eyebrow angles will be closer in form to the new generation of golf and the new Guanghe 4X we have seen.

In the sports surround decoration of the front bumper, the visual expression of R-Line is different from other Volkswagen models. The

C type LED daytime running light is hidden in the diversion hole in a more slender style. When it is not lit, it will become a part of the front metal decoration. However, the fin-shaped spoiler is slightly weakened in the disposal of the inner lining decorative panel, which does not seem to be consistent with its own coupe SUV identity, and the main aerodynamic improvement is the trapezoidal panel of the body. Device.

Looking at the Volkswagen Tiguan X from the side tail end, the spoiler tail that appears at the bottom of the tail box cover will appear sharper, and the stretch on the D-pillar will make it look better than luxury coupe SUVs such as BMW X4 and Model X More natural.

and thanks to the expression of the R-Line sports appearance package in the rear bumper, the full decorative panel, the slightly raised irregular exhaust pipe, etc., will also make the Tiguan X significantly different from the standard model. The uniqueness and sportiness of temperament have been achieved here.

More importantly, Volkswagen now seems to be learning from some new red cars. For example, the blackened taillight lampshade is very similar to Silicon Valley electric vehicles such as Tesla Model X. In the details, the ingenuity of the German designer can be seen. The geometric splicing design is added to the treatment of the lamp cavity mirror, which makes people think of a style similar to European glass art, and it is braking It will also be more eye-catching when it is illuminated with the width of the display.

size space

Objectively speaking, Tiguan X may not be suitable for the needs of the household consumer market. With no increase in the wheelbase and a 45mm reduction in height, the Tiguan X's slip-back structure once again reduces the actual usable height of the rear seats and trunk.

In terms of storage, the base volume of Tiguan X has been compressed from 495L to 450L, which is not much different from the data of some compact cars. The capacity advantage of SUV will be significantly compressed. In terms of riding, the 178cm experiencer can still get the maximum head space of 1 punch in the front row, and the leg space in the back row has reached more than 2 punches. The rear roof can be slightly lowered, and the sunroof is not opened. The situation is indeed slightly depressed. Interior and configuration of

After entering the cockpit, the actual identity of Tiguan X will be exposed soon. Whether it is the steering wheel design, the center console layout, or even the main decoration style, there is no obvious difference with the Tiguan L. Adjustment. Moreover, in order to lay the high-end tone of the vehicle, Volkswagen has chosen a more aggressive positioning and pricing method for several of its coupe SUVs. Including Tiguan X, it will not lower the configuration and power standards in order to cater to the market. This has led to the Tiguan. X has now reached the threshold of 245,900 yuan, which is a full 30,000 yuan higher than the Tiguan L 330TSI.

But as we said, the Tiguan X just didn't reduce the threshold by reducing the configuration. The actual configuration specifications actually reached the Tiguan L 330TSI two-wheel drive smart sharing version. The software and hardware such as full-speed adaptive cruise, steep slope descent, and full LCD instrument panel that the latter does not have are all presented as standard in Tiguan X.

zIn order to further meet the needs of young consumers, 58z

has completed the upgrade of the car and machine system of Tiguan X. The current touch screen is also directly equipped with a 9.2-inch specification. Its voice system now also supports air conditioning adjustment, plus the ability to achieve more on the remote end. The car networking system with multi-vehicle function operation and the youthfulness and fun required by the definition of the coupe SUV itself are indeed reflected in the Tiguan X.

is the last review:

combined with the above pricing methods, the low-power version of the 2.0T turbocharged engine (186Ps/320N·m) entry Tiguan X is actually only 10,000 yuan more expensive than the Tiguan L of the same specification. That's all, plus the hardware additions (about 13 functions and configuration additions) including the instrument panel, touch screen, etc., such a price difference of 10,000 yuan is actually negligible.

But one thing we still need to raise is that the Volkswagen Tiguan X coupe SUV is in a straight line, and it will actually be a tenth of a second slower than the Tiguan L. Should the coupe SUV run beautifully or run Go fast, this may be the first difficult decision that consumers interested in Tiguan X need to make before buying a car.
