Volkswagen is unique in the country. Exaggeration, the sales of a Volkswagen in China may even be equal to the sales of the entire Japanese model, which shows the love of Chinese for Volkswagen, and Toyota's sales cannot be surpassed among the Japanese. models, especially overseas, Toyota sells far more than Volkswagen.
This speaks volumes about the reliability of the quality and stability of Toyota cars. So how should Volkswagen and Toyota choose?Compare from the perspective of ride quality. This aspect is the strength of German cars. The cost of chassis parts for German cars is much higher than that of Japanese cars. The number of pieces is thicker and the material used is significantly higher.
For example, many Toyota chassis parts are primarily made of low-cost stamped parts. Although it does not mean safety, when driving on bad roads, the noise transmitted to the car is strong due to the transmission characteristics of the material, the filtration and sound insulation ability is poor. Relatively speaking, Volkswagen's chassis parts will use some aluminum alloy parts, which are more strong.
The sound insulation is also better. Of course, this has a lot to do with the sound insulation of the chassis, however, the modern Volkswagen is no longer what it used to be, and has also learned all sorts of simple settings and all sorts of nonsense. For example, the simple rear suspension setup of the Volkswagen Sutar did affect ride quality and safety.
The cost of the car, the fuel consumption of Lavida is about 67 liters per 100 km. Fuel consumption behaves normally. The maintenance interval is 10,000 km. The maintenance interval is relatively long in the same class. Minor maintenance costs range from 600 to 800 RMB. After 60,000 kilometers, the major maintenance cost is about 4,000 yuan, which is within an acceptable range.
The fuel consumption of the Corolla is about 55 liters per 100 kilometers, which is relatively low. Minor maintenance costs range from 500 to 600 yuan. After 60,000 kilometers, the major maintenance cost is about 3,400 yuan. Regarding the cost of the car, the Corolla is slightly cheaper than the Lavida, which is also the tradition of Japanese cars: cheap to use and maintain.
Quality problem, let's talk about your quality problem first. There is no general difference in quality between Volkswagen and Toyota. However, one of the things that Volkswagen is often criticized for is that there are often minor problems. Although these small problems have little impact on the vehicle, they can easily affect the car owner's experience. Toyota is much better than Volkswagen in this regard.
From the point of view of fuel consumption, since it is a family car, fuel consumption is definitely something we need to consider, and Toyota cars are known for their low fuel consumption. After all, Japanese cars have always been very good in terms of fuel consumption. On the other hand, Volkswagen is far inferior to Toyota in terms of fuel consumption, which is one of the reasons why many people abandon Volkswagen and choose Toyota.
Needless to say, Volkswagen has brand power. As early as 1984, Volkswagen of Germany cooperated with SAIC, and subsequently launched the first classic models: the Santana. With its good performance and stable quality, it has won a good reputation and gained a firm foothold. Good reputation has established its own brand and laid a solid foundation in the domestic market.
In fact, Toyota entered the domestic market relatively early. It was just an imported car. Its real localization did not begin until 2003 after the cooperation with FAW, although the pace of localization is much later than that of Volkswagen, but it depends on its own stability. , economical and comfortable, it is highly appreciated by many domestic consumers.
Therefore, in terms of brand power and value retention, Volkswagen and Toyota can be said to be evenly matched!Volkswagen fans still love Volkswagen because of the quality of the drive and the sleeker looks;And Toyota fans still love Toyota because it is economical, durable, comfortable and worry-free.
In short, when deciding whether it is better to buy a Volkswagen or Toyota, the most important thing is to have your own opinion and make the right decision based on your actual situation, such as whether you often run long distances. On the road, it will be more suitable to choose Volkswagen, and if your family lives in urban traffic, you can choose Toyota's self-priming system, which will have better performance. There will be no power outages, so don't worry. Dual-clutch overheating, stuttering and other problems.
