These include the Jetta VS7, Lexus LM, the new Audi Q7, the new Land Rover Discovery Sport, and a number of popular new cars, and in today's article, we come to introduce you to the four heavyweight new cars that will be launched in February 2020, and hope to help you buy a car in the future.
Jetta VS7
Highlights:Continuation of the family design language, expected to go on sale at the end of February.
The front of the Jetta VS7 still features a hexagonal grille with plenty of diamond-shaped chrome accents spread across the interior, giving it a textured look. However, the headlamps connected to the grille adopt an integrated design with a lens structure for the far and near lights. From the overall appearance, the Jetta VS7 is very qualitative, and the family design language has taken shape. The more angular front face is differentiated from the Volkswagen model, combining stability and power. The Jetta VS7's light cavity has a more complex internal shape and looks a bit more refined. It comes with integrated LED headlamps with LED daytime running lights for both far and near beams, but the turn signals remain halogen.
The side of the car resembles the lines of a Volkswagen-branded SUV, and it's clear that the rear doors of the Jetta VS7 have been lengthened to meet the needs of the Chinese market. The door handles are in the same color as the body, but they are inlaid with a piece of very chunky chrome trim that enhances its sense of refinement. It is worth mentioning that the Jetta VS7 is also equipped with a keyless entry system, which enhances the convenience when getting into the car. The Jetta VS7's multiple horizontal lines shape a relatively strong sense of hierarchy, which is concise and durable, with a hidden exhaust, and a penetrating reflective strip arranged above the rear bumper. The polygonal taillamps have apparently become the Jetta's signature design, and the arrow-type broadband lamps have a high degree of recognition when they are illuminated.
The Jetta VS7 has a very strong "Volkswagen flavor" at the rear, and even with the logo and personalized elements blocked, you might mistake it for a Volkswagen-branded SUV. The taillight shape is simple and long, and the Y-shaped design elements are applied inside the light cavity to strengthen its visual and design sensibility. Overall, the Jetta brand's familial design language is more in line with most people's aesthetics, stable without losing the sense of power and recognizability. From the Jetta VS7, we can see the shadow of many Volkswagen models, in other words, the appearance has a certain "German flavor", but it has a more obvious difference with the existing Volkswagen SUV.
The interior of the Jetta VS7 looks very German, and the overall layout of the center control is very similar to that of the Volkswagen model. Surprisingly, the touch-screen air-conditioning panel that comes with the higher-end Volkswagen models also appears on the Jetta VS7. The steering wheel is covered with a leather wrapping, which makes it feel good to hold, and the mechanical gauges are still in the familiar VW style, which are simple and easy to read. It's clearly a utilitarian style compared to the fancy full LCD gauges.
Jetta VS7 part of the model is equipped with dual temperature zone automatic air conditioning, air conditioning panel for the touch panel, the response is very sensitive, but the lack of pressure feedback, and the lack of differences between the different function keys, blind manipulation is relatively easy to mistakenly touch, the majority of the interior does not use a very high level of material, which of course is also consistent with the positioning of the car, and the basic utility configurations are still relatively in place, the center console ergonomic design is also more reasonable, the various functions of the lifting of the car is also a practical style. The ergonomics of the center console is also relatively reasonable, and various functions can be reached by lifting the hand, which is very suitable for those users who pursue practicality.
Height is 179cm, sitting in the car will be adjusted to the appropriate position and height down to the minimum, at this time the head space of one fist three fingers, very ample, the rear seat support proportional down, and equipped with three independent headrests, the sitting position is still relatively stretch, if the cushion can be longer will be better, the luggage space looks very considerable, the internal height of the interior is sufficient, placed large items is very convenient. . There is a small step when the rear seats are folded, but it doesn't affect much. There's plenty of interior passenger space and the boot is large enough to carry a family comfortably, which I'm sure is a crucial point for its potential users.
Powered by a 1.4T/110KW turbocharged direct-injection engine with a maximum torque of 250N.m, the Jetta VS7 is based on the MQB platform, and the driving experience is somewhat similar to that of some SUVs on the same platform, but after a careful experience, it gave me a feeling that was different from that of every SUV I've ever driven, smoother and softer. Combined with the gentle steering feel, it's easy to navigate and makes commuting in the city a breeze.
Lexus LM
