As the first "A-class" car of Shanghai Volkswagen, Lavida was officially globally launched at this year's Beijing Auto Show and has since become a focal point of attention for many media outlets and consumers. The Lavida will be equipped with 1.6L and 2.0L displacement engines, the same as those in the Polo and Alligro, and will officially go on sale in June. Regarding the price of the new car, Zhang Hailiang, General Manager of Sales/Marketing at Shanghai Volkswagen, stated in a media interview that its pre-sale price would be "the annual salary of a white-collar worker." In other words, based on the annual salary of a white-collar worker earning ten thousand yuan per month, the price of the Lavida would be around 120,000 yuan.
It should be said that there are currently no shortage of A-class cars priced around 120,000 yuan domestically, including several models within the Volkswagen family such as the Jetta, Bora, and Skoda Octavia. With a similar price point, the performance and configuration of the Lavida, aside from its exterior and interior highlights, will be a crucial factor in determining its market prospects. Recently, through an insider at Shanghai Volkswagen, our reporter obtained a brief configuration list for the Lavida. Let's take a look together to see if the Lavida, with the following main configurations, will be your top choice.
