Sales of the new product in China will start in July
The newest Volkswagen Magotan (as the local variation of the Volkswagen Passat is called in China) has already appeared at dealers in the Middle Kingdom: the Autohome resource has published live photos and new details about this model.
The new generation Magotan, built on the basis of the Volkswagen Passat B9, has radically changed its design — in China it is called more youthful. The dimensions of the car are 4990 x 1854 x 1487 mm, wheelbase — 2871 mm. Compared to its predecessor, the length has increased by 94 mm, but the wheelbase has not changed. The top-end 380TSI version shown in the photo has 245/40 Goodyear tires, — 19-inch.
The main innovation inside — Magotan now has three screens on the front panel: in front of the driver, in the center as part of the media system and in front of the front passenger. The infotainment system is built on Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 SoC, screen resolution — 2240 x 1260 pixels. The media system supports Apple CarPlay, CarLife and a number of other interfaces for connecting mobile devices.
For the first time, Magotan received the IQ driving assistance system. Pilot, however, you shouldn’t demand much from it, since it combines the functions of the second level of autonomy: traffic sign recognition system, adaptive cruise control, etc.
