2021 1.5L Manual Fashion Edition
Satisfaction: This car is just right for my wife to go to work. When driving on the road, it doesn't look so stingy, but rather calm and elegant. As a classic Volkswagen car, it is still very economical. Although it is a manual transmission, it is relatively easy for both my wife and myself to drive, and it is equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission. The interior space is larger than I thought, and it is quite suitable for 4 people. My wife went to buy a car with me at that time, and she liked this car as her commuting car.
Dissatisfaction: When I went to see the car, I thought it had a fuel consumption of about 6.2L. When my wife drove it on the highway on business trips, the fuel consumption reached 6.5L. In addition, when driving fast on the highway, especially after reaching 100, the tire noise is quite obvious, and it is even more obvious after reaching 120. Secondly, for this price, don't have too high requirements for configuration. It's OK for ordinary commuting, but if you want to play with friends, it's not enough.
Space: When I went to buy the car, I personally experienced sitting in it and it felt OK. Although I am 180 pounds, with long legs and thick arms, as long as I lower the seat, it is not particularly tight. It is more than enough for my wife to drive to work. Usually, it is just right for 4 people to pick up my parents, but if there is one more person, you may have to consider the fatness and thinness. It is suitable for 4 fat people, and 5 people are fine for thin people. If you don’t usually carry people, it is also OK to put some things in the back row, and there will not be too little.
Power: In terms of power, because it is a 1.5L aspirated engine, it feels a bit sluggish when starting, but after all, it is not equipped with a T, so it is acceptable. And it is also used for daily commuting, which meets my needs.
Fuel Consumption: I was a little disappointed with the fuel consumption, because I thought it was about 6.2L before I bought it, but after I bought it and drove it on the highway, the actual fuel consumption was about 6.5L. If I drove slowly on city roads, the fuel consumption would probably be higher. But compared with other cars, I felt a little more balanced.
Appearance: The appearance looks quite pleasing to the eye, the body is neither too long nor too short, and the atmospheric white color is suitable for both men and women. It is quite suitable for the aesthetics of our Chinese people, not particularly outstanding, but not outdated in appearance.

Satisfaction: After using it for such a long time, I am generally very satisfied with it. I have almost found the reason why Santana is so popular. First of all, as a means of transportation, its fuel consumption performance is really satisfactory. A full tank of gas can run more than 800km in the city, and 1000km on the highway. Refueling once a month is completely sufficient. Then the space is relatively large. Although the wheelbase is only 2650mm, the legroom in the back row is two fists, which is quite comfortable to ride. Finally, the chassis is stable, and the taxi driver also said so.
Dissatisfaction: The common feature of joint venture cars at this price is low configuration, especially my low-end version, which is really low configuration. The tire width is 175. It looks narrow from the rear of the car. It is called "noodle tire". Not only that, the rear wheel is also a drum brake. After buying the car, I like to look at the rear brakes of other cars. I found that the only one with drum brakes like mine is a van. The same as the van is the horn. The original car has a single snail horn, and the sound is hard to describe. A week after picking up the car, it was replaced with a high and low double snail horn.
Space: As an A0-class car that barely "squeezes" into the ranks of compact cars, it is not inferior to the standard A-class car in terms of space. After all, the taxi model here is also Santana, and the rear space is definitely not small. The trunk is also very large, which can fit several large suitcases.
Power: The power performance is at a sufficient level, the start is light, and you are willing to step on the gas, and there is also a sense of pushing back. I have to say that Volkswagen's manual transmission feels really good when shifting gears, the mid-range acceleration is also very powerful, and it is easy to run at 120 on the highway.
Fuel Consumption: The fuel consumption performance is quite good. One tank of gas can last for 800km in the city and 1000km on the highway. According to the oil prices here, it is less than 40 cents per kilometer in the city and even less on the highway. I am very satisfied.
Appearance: The exterior design is great and looks very coordinated. Compared with the old model, it has many more lines. For example, the rear of the car has a bit of a "duck tail design" feel, which makes it much more fashionable. In fact, I prefer the appearance of the comfort version. The white front bumper, aluminum alloy wheels, and chrome trim on the windows make the whole car a lot more refined, but the comfort version is more than 10,000 yuan more expensive, which is beyond my budget.
Interior: The interior is very simple. Although I can accept it, I still have to complain. The interiors of the fashion version and the comfort version are different. The interior of the comfort version looks quite high-end and the workmanship looks great. It has a multi-function steering wheel, a central armrest, and bright decorations on the center console. But as a low-end fashion version, it has nothing. The steering wheel is bare, the center console is black, and there is nothing behind the gear lever. It is very shabby. However, I later bought a "patch-type multi-function steering wheel button" on Taobao, which is much easier to use. Other missing things are also being gradually installed.

Dissatisfaction:
Space: Although it is an entry-level compact car, the space inside the car is actually quite satisfactory. If you are of average build, there is no problem for three people to sit in the back row, but if you are a big person, it will be a bit crowded, and there is a bulge in the middle of the back row.
Power:
Fuel Consumption: The fuel consumption is really low, only 7.2L/100km in the city, and just over six liters on the highway. Anyway, I often drive in the city, so I don’t feel bad about refueling.

Satisfaction: The appearance is not outstanding, but it is good enough to look at. Volkswagen cars, especially Santana, have soul in black. The fuel consumption is satisfactory enough. The EA211 1.5L engine is used by the old Lavida and Bora. The fuel consumption is very low. I think its fuel economy is not worse than that of Japanese cars. In addition, I like the chassis tuning of this car very much. The chassis is solid. When driving on bad roads, you can even feel the "high-end" chassis. It is quite stable at high speed. This should be the "German taste" of the entry-level.
Dissatisfaction: There are many complaints, because no matter it is a little more expensive or a little cheaper, the configuration is much better than it, of course, except for Japanese cars of the same price. For example, the central control entertainment system, the original car is a combination of radio and 2 speakers. Although it supports USB and AUX input to play songs, it cannot listen to online songs. I installed a large screen at my own expense, which can listen to online music, navigation, and reversing images. And the seats, the original car is a fabric seat, because I don’t like seat covers, so it’s hard to take care of it, so I had to pay for leather myself.
Space: The space performance is very excellent in the same class. Although it is a compact car, its dimensions are basically the same as those of Japanese and Korean small cars. For such a small car, the interior space is very spacious, and the rear legroom is even better than that of my colleague's Geely Emgrand. I am very satisfied with it.
Power: The 1.5L naturally aspirated engine has a maximum power of 112 horsepower and is paired with a 6AT gearbox. This powertrain is widely criticized. Almost everyone on the Internet says that it is weak in power. It is indeed not strong, but it depends on the scene and purpose. I think it is completely sufficient for home use in the city. When starting, as long as you step on the accelerator over 2500 rpm, the vehicle accelerates and shifts gears in one go, and it can even be faster than other cars at many traffic lights. Basically, the S gear is not used. After the speed is up, the power performance is much more relaxed, and there is no problem in accelerating and overtaking in the city.
Fuel Consumption: I seldom drive on the highway, and basically stay in the city. The fuel consumption is 6.6L per 100 kilometers, which I think is excellent. The fuel consumption performance of Japanese cars of the same level and price is not much different.
Appearance: The appearance is quite ordinary, and no one would even take a second look at it when it's driving in traffic. But this is what a family car should look like, ordinary and down-to-earth.
Interior: The interior is very shabby. The original car's central control can only see all-black hard plastic, a very retro radio head, and a few knobs for controlling the air conditioner. The knob shape and washing machine are not needed. After installing a large screen and covering the seats, it looks much better.
