Comments on the advantages and disadvantages of Volkswagen Santana, who are the people who buy Volkswagen Santana?

19 national day, I went to the ends of the earth in Hainan, but I was a little disappointed because there were too many people in the tourist season to enjoy the scenery. Recently, this sense of disappointment has risen again, not menopause, but seeing the new Santana.

Speaking of Santana, the classic slogan: "You are not afraid to travel around the world if you own Santana" naturally comes to mind. At the beginning, Santana was famous for its advantages of genuine leather and wide application, and its sales volume was also good, but these advantages were not seen in the new Santana.

The appearance of the new Santana adopts the same design style as sagitar, which means that Santana has also joined the popular doll game. However, this set of appearance is not bad for Santana, which makes Santana's leather and durable features reflected in appearance.

Because the new Santana and Polo*** use the platform, the size of the new Santana is seriously shrunk compared with the old Santana. It can be clearly seen from the distance from the front of the car to the wheels in the above picture that the size of the old Santana can reach the level of a B-class car, which is suitable for private use and public use.

On the other hand, the new Santana has been reduced to the same A-class car positioning as Jetta, and it is built on a small car platform. In the words of netizens, it's a Lapi Polo, and there is no more abundant internal space.

Open the trunk, the white steel plate is exposed, and you are embarrassed to open the trunk for others. This kind of operation can also be seen on Jetta, but fortunately, the space in the trunk is still relatively abundant and relatively flat, which can meet the needs of storage.

The interior is a very standard Volkswagen interior style, which adds points to Santana's interior, because the interiors of high-end models such as Passat and Sagitar are also designed in this way.

Interior materials uses hard plastic, so interior materials Santana is acceptable. After all, the price is there, and the positioning of the vehicle is no longer the previous all-round mid-level car, but the low-end entry car.

Santana is lighter to drive, so it is easier to drive even with low power. However, this situation is limited to urban driving. When overtaking at high speed, the engine has been "unable to roar" and it took a long time to complete the overtaking feat. On the other hand, it also shows that Santana's NVH effect is not very good.

Although the new Santana still uses the old PQ25 platform, the chassis gives people a solid feeling, the suspension is also very popular, the shock absorption is hard but the toughness is good, and the absorption ability of bumps is weak when passing through the speed bump, but there is no redundant bouncing action after passing through the speed bump.

Generally speaking, the new Santana has completely lost the taste of the old Santana. The space of the new Santana is difficult to meet the domestic demand, and the grade positioning is not high enough. This does not meet the main demand of consumers to buy a car now, so many people think it is shameful to open a new Santana now. And because the old Santana is so excellent, it is inevitable that people will have all kinds of dissatisfaction after the new Santana is downgraded. Some people even say that buying a new Santana is a fool.

Why am I disappointed when I see the new Santana? To a large extent, it is also because the new mulberry is really not as good as the old mulberry. The author saw that many people who drive Santana are people of a certain age, and one of the car owners told me that buying a new Santana is purely because of Santana's name. Indeed, with the rise of domestic cars and the increasingly fierce competition in the market of low-end cars below100000, Santana now has no advantage except one name.
