friends who pay attention to overseas markets should know that the overseas version of the new generation passat only has a station wagon version. however, there is no need to say much about the niche status of station wagons in the domestic market. introducing it in its original form can indeed guarantee its "german flavor", but it may not suit local tastes. therefore, the version sold in the domestic market must return to the most mainstream three-box sedan.

faw-volkswagen has already handed in its answer sheet, a highly original new b9 magotan. on the saic volkswagen side, the b9 generation passat is also coming soon. saic volkswagen will name it passat pro. it is estimated that like the tiguan, both old and new generations will be sold together to cover a wider price range. so what is the pro of this new passat pro? let's analyze it together.

in terms of styling, saic volkswagen has basically introduced the design style of the overseas version of the car, applied the latest family design language, and provided two front face shapes. the overall look is younger than the old model, but it lacks some of the calmness and atmosphere that passat should have. perhaps this is a change made to cater to the young market. it can only be said that different people have different tastes, so i won't comment on it here.

the length, width and height of the vehicle are 5006/1850/1489mm respectively, and the wheelbase remains unchanged at 2871mm. the shape of the rear end has returned to the more orthodox three-box sedan proportions, but i feel that the rear overhang of the new car is a bit too long? this body proportion reminds me of the modified a7l of saic audi. i think they should appropriately lengthen the wheelbase and extend the length of the rear door. this will not only make the proportions more harmonious, but also be beneficial to the performance of the rear space. of course, this is just my personal opinion, please don't criticize if you don't like it.

like the exterior, the interior of the car also has a brand-new family style, but in terms of intelligence, it has been upgraded to a certain extent according to the preferences of domestic users. it is equipped with a 10.3-inch full digital lcd instrument, a 15-inch smart 2k floating screen and an 11.6-inch co-pilot entertainment screen. there is also a hud, which can provide the driver with rich vehicle information without taking their eyes off the road. the car is equipped with qualcomm 8155 automotive-grade chip, has 12gb of ram + 128gb of memory, supports 5g car networking and rich application interaction functions, and is quite comprehensive.

as for other aspects of the interior, like the overseas version, the passat pro also adopts a hand-gear layout, so the central armrest has more storage space, including a wireless charging panel. in addition, the new car also has 30-color ambient lights, harman kardon audio and intelligent fragrance system, which is in line with the performance of this level of car.

finally, let’s talk about driving control. the passat pro is built on the mqb evo architecture. the power combination is still the familiar ea888 2.0t engine + dq381 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. in addition, there is an upgraded version of the iq.pilot intelligent driving assistance system, equipped with 25 intelligent driving assistance sensors. it supports advanced adaptive cruise, lane keeping, lever lane change, intelligent obstacle avoidance and many other functions. it is not particularly eye-catching, but its practicality is still guaranteed.

from the perspective of product positioning, there is a big difference between the new passat pro and its predecessor. it has huge upgrades in many aspects, especially in intelligence. however, as a higher-end model, it still lacks some calm aura in some aspects. so whether its youthful design can support a higher price is hard to say at the moment. the new car will be launched on september 10, so let's wait and see.
