on september 10, saic volkswagen held a grand press conference for the new passat. although the lack of coordination between the stage and the backstage made the new car's smart car machine look awkward in front of the media and the audience, it became the most embarrassing one among the many car model launch conferences that year. but we have to say that although saic volkswagen's press conference was average, the "pro" model in the new passat series - passat pro, is still quite strong. it can even be said that from the previous tuyue xinrui and the current passat pro, we can see saic volkswagen's attitude of embracing new changes.

the manufacturer's suggested retail price of saic volkswagen passat pro is rmb 199,900 to rmb 239,900. the new car is now on the market with a limited-time discount of more than rmb 10,000 for the entire series, and the discounted price becomes rmb 189,900 to rmb 223,900. for a joint venture brand mid-size sedan with a length of 5006mm and a wheelbase of 2871mm, the new car listing price can be said to be quite restrained and conservative, and we believe that the terminal price of this car may still offer some discounts.

as a 5-meter-class mid-size sedan, the exterior design of passat pro has, in the eyes of many people, broken away from the stereotype of passat series models. overall, the design of this car is more youthful and personalized. the front face does not have a large chrome grille, but has a through-type daytime running light. the side has low-drag wheels and black porthole surrounds. the rear also has a light-emitting logo and through-type taillights. the overall shape can be described as youthful and fashionable.

in our opinion, the interior of passat pro is closer to new energy vehicles. this car not only introduces a large central control screen and qualcomm snapdragon 8155 chip, but also introduces a large ai model. the overall performance of the car is indeed better, and it is not as outrageous as the "flip" at the press conference! at the same time, this car is also equipped with a co-pilot entertainment screen and an electronic hand gear, and the overall user experience is even better.

in terms of power, the entire passat pro series is equipped with a 2.0t turbocharged engine + a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. the engine has a maximum horsepower of 220ps, a peak torque of 350n·m, an acceleration time of 0-100km/h of 7.6 seconds, and a wltc comprehensive fuel consumption of 6.87l/100km. the performance and fuel consumption are all quite good.

passat pro is equipped with front mcpherson and rear multi-link independent suspension, which is consistent with other passat models. the conclusions reached through communication with other media teachers are basically the same. that is, passat pro still continues the passat series models' comfortable and easy-to-drive characteristics. as a 5-meter-class large car, this car's seat comfort, chassis shock absorption effect, and handling performance are still excellent.

in terms of configuration, passat pro seems to have completely abandoned the german brand's habit of reducing configuration. the entire series is equipped with l2 driving assistance system as standard, and the two high-end models also support memory parking and automatic lane change assistance. this level of driving assistance is still rare in fuel vehicle products.

in terms of other configurations, passat pro is also equipped with adaptive high and low beam headlights, panoramic sunroof, carplay/carlife/huawei hicar, voice recognition control, 5g network connection, ota upgrade, mobile phone app remote control, leather steering wheel, hud head-up display, 15w mobile phone wireless charging, imitation leather seats, front seat heating, ventilation and massage, co-pilot boss key, harman kardon audio, etc. the overall configuration level is still very high.

in short, from the passat pro, we can see saic volkswagen's attitude towards the current market environment. since the price war has become a reality, saic volkswagen must join in. since relying solely on the influence of the joint venture brand can no longer achieve the goal of attracting consumers, it will quickly improve the product strength of the new car and make the old products more cost-effective.
