Interior
Like the exterior, the interior of the new Santana also focuses on simplicity and restraint, which is also the consistent strength of Volkswagen. The combination of two colors makes the new Santana more in line with the positioning of a family car. In order to meet the needs of cost, the interior uses a lot of plastic materials, which is understandable for Volkswagen’s entry-level compact cars. Wooden trim strips are only available in high-end models. The center console is made of wood, which is a high-end configuration. The air conditioning adjustment button uses a knob design, and the central slender display will display the temperature-level air volume. New Santana audio control, air conditioning and other buttons and knobs are clear and easy to understand.
The new Santana is expected to be divided into three configurations: high, medium and low. We should be shooting high-end models this time, including electric heated seats, side airbags, side air curtains, etc.; mid-range models will have electric sunroofs and multi-function steering wheels. etc., the estimated selling price may be below 100,000 yuan.
It is worth mentioning that the air-conditioning outlet, the center console host and other parts are all decorated with chrome, which improves the overall sense of class. The use of dark brown wood grain decorative panels will not make people feel cheap.
Space
The front seats of the new Santana are moderately hard and soft, with good comfort. The overall is also biased towards comfort, the support and wrapping of the waist are not strong, and the color scheme is closer to the warmth of a family car. For a model with a height of about 1.75 meters, the headroom in the front row is only three fingers away when the seat is adjusted properly. Although the wheelbase of the new Santana is only 2603mm, the rear legroom is still two punches away.
In terms of storage, the new Santana does not have much storage space in each area, but the numerous areas are sufficient for daily use. The central area of the front seats is equipped with double cup holders, and the fixing method is firm and not easy to tilt. The card slot next to the handbrake can also be used to insert parking cards, passes, etc. Overall, the design of the new Santana is relatively user-friendly.
The new Santana’s leapfrog is mainly reflected in the rear seating space. For people of average stature, the space between the legs and the front seats can reach about two fists. This performance is even comparable to that of some A+-class models. On par, the interior space is considerable.
Configuration
The new Santana is equipped with 1.4L and 1.6L engines code-named EA211. This series of engines will have two displacements. Among them, the 1.4L engine has a maximum power of 66kW and the 1.6L engine has a maximum power of 81kW. Lightweight all aluminum construction. The gearbox is still the same as the POLO, a 5-speed manual and a 6-speed Tiptronic automatic gearbox. With the addition of 6AT, this car, which is not considered high-end, has better high-speed performance.
The suspension is the same as that of the POlO, using a front McPherson independent suspension and a rear torsion beam non-independent suspension. Overall, while maintaining the consistent high-speed performance of Volkswagen brands, comfort is also taken into account. In addition, the use of EPC electronic power steering also makes the new Santana easier to drive, the low-speed steering is lighter, and the high-speed steering is heavier, but the sense of empty steering still exists. Of course, this is not true for a family car. harm.
High-end models are equipped with manual transmission such as ESP, cruise control and leather seats. Some models also use automatic air conditioning, but the control surface is different from automatic transmission models. The seat heating button is placed in front of the shift handle. There is no rear window button on one side, which seems to bring me back to the old Poussin era.
