September 20, 2018 0


On September 19th, the FAW-Volkswagen TAYRON brand launch conference was held in the Great Wall of Jinshanling. At this press conference, FAW-Volkswagen officially announced the Chinese name of its first high-end mid-size SUV
TAYRON - Exploring Yue, meaning "exploring truth, Wangchuan Lunyue", among which "exploration" symbolizes constant exploration The spirit of seeking; "Yue", representing Zhuoran's independence and lofty pride, indicates that the exploration of Yue will accompany more people to explore, challenge, and conquer.

As the first high-end mid-size SUV of the FAW-Volkswagen SUV family, Detective Yue is the new generation of products in the mid- to high-end SUV market, and is also the backbone of the FAW-Volkswagen SUV family. It will use the golden construction principle, the “Feng Shang” design concept, the ultimate control experience and the forward-looking technology represented by L2 intelligent driving assistance to create a new generation of German high-end medium-sized SUV.
In this regard, Dong Xiuhui, deputy general manager of FAW-Volkswagen Automotive Co., Ltd. and general manager of FAW-Volkswagen Sales Co., Ltd., said: "Exploring Yue not only supports the mission of FAW-Volkswagen's "brand up", but also leads FAW-Volkswagen. The other SUV products form the SUV family product sequence and open the FAW-Volkswagen SUV era!"
" Feng Shang Shang" design concept. Exploring Yue leads the new thinking of mass brand SUV design

The English name TAYRON of Tangyue comes from Tiger+Iron, which means theleader and the pioneering “tiger” and the durable and invincible “steel”. Through strong design, it shows its ambition and strength to conquer.

TAYRON explores the concept of “Feng Shang Shang” and breaks the bondage of traditional style. It is based on the three leading ideas of “breakthrough”, “respect” and “resonance”, and strives to realize the emotional resonance of people and vehicles through a breakthrough appearance and full respect for the driver's interior.
The first is a breakthrough. The appearance of the exploration of Yue has the courage to dare to break the rules and the strength to lead the trend. For example, the eight ridges of the front hood form a converging posture, giving a strong sense of power; the honeycomb chain grille design enhances the modern sense; the rhythmic waistline on the side is sharp and flexible, connecting the full wheel pack and the strong The shoulders of the car highlight the posture of forward movement, bringing a pioneering dynamic beauty and leading the future design direction of the popular SUV.

Secondly, respecting, the interior design of the exploration Yue fully respects the user's driving experience, and gives them a comfortable experience with the ultimate human care. For example, the driver-centered horizontal extended cockpit and center console's floating design; up to 18 surround ambience lights and large-area interior soft pack materials create a warm and comfortable interior for the occupants The environment is decorated to convey a strong sense of technology and comfort, fully expressing respect for the occupants and ubiquitous care.
The last is resonance, which is intended to resonate between product design and user emotions through the blending of style and taste. The designer of the exploration hall fully understands the psychological appeal of the current users, strives to demonstrate the pioneering style with a breakthrough appearance, meets their high-grade pursuit, and respects the human interior design to create a spiritual harbor with temperature and affection. , triggering its strong emotional resonance.
Gold Structure Guidelines Redefining the new rules of body size and interior space
Thanks to the highly flexible expandability of the MQB A2 platform and the advanced short overhanging shaft design, Detective has subverted the positive correlation between the length of the body and the internal space in the traditional design, which perfectly presents the best body length and interior space. The golden ratio.
 The "Golden Structure Guidelines" is a forward-looking concept that FAW-Volkswagen has deepened its insight into consumer pain points and once again introduced the trend of car design. At present, what consumers really need is not the size of the body, but the space inside the car. Therefore, TAYRON no longer blindly lengthens the body, but chooses the appropriate body length on the basis of occupying as little social space resources as possible, and with the innovative design of short suspension long shaft and front and rear adjustable, to maximize the interior space. Fully meet the real needs of consumers.

" Golden Structure Guidelines" and "Golden Power Combination" and "Golden Body Curve" together constitute FAW-Volkswagen "Gold Series", representing FAW-Volkswagen's spirit of continuous exploration and innovation in the field of automotive design, is FAW-Volkswagen" The best embodiment of the brand up.
The same level of joint venture mass production SUV only achieves L2 level intelligent driving
With the development of the trend of Internet of Vehicles and car sharing, various auto manufacturers have accelerated their layout in the field of intelligent driving. The TJA traffic congestion assist system carried by the Discovery River is equipped with the ACC3.0 adaptive cruise system and the Lane Assist lane keeping function, enabling the vehicle to achieve automatic follow-up and lane keeping in low-speed driving conditions in traffic jams. Not only can it effectively alleviate driving fatigue, but it will further enhance the safety level of the vehicle. It can be said that the exploration of Yue is the only model that achieves L2 level intelligent driving assistance in the same-level joint venture mass production SUV.

In addition, the exploration of Yue also has a number of outstanding front-end technology configuration, such as PLA3.0 intelligent parking assist system, Active Info Display full LCD digital instrument, up to 18 atmosphere lights and trunk electric start function and other equipment, let Owners enjoy a more enjoyable driving experience while enjoying the pleasure of driving.
Extreme off-road control Adapt to the full scene, cope with multiple road conditions
In terms of power, Detective uses Volkswagen's most advanced "TSI+DSG" gold power combination, equipped with EA888 2.0T turbocharged engine, matched with DQ500 seven-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, both power and fuel economy are beyond the same level.
In addition, the exploration of Yue is equipped with the Volkswagen 4MOTION intelligent four-wheel drive system, BorgWarner's fifth-generation central differential's efficient control and professional SUV chassis tuning technology, not only has superior control performance beyond the same level, but also has a powerful explosive power. In addition, the exploration of the Yue also provides a two-wheel drive, four-wheel drive version, the powertrain is more widely matched, bringing the ultimate control experience to more users.
The personality of the car is like the personality. Exploring the "Best Partner" of Yue Cheng's new middle class.
At present, the rise of the new middle class, which is dominated by the post-80s and post-90s, is becoming the mainstay of the multi-consumer society and has become a pioneering force in leading China's automobile consumption trend. They are a generation that grew up along with the Internet wave. It is a generation with ambition, perseverance, courage and courage. They are leaders of "powerfulness", a veritable "senior layer", and an ideal "action school."

Among the brand genes of Yanyue, it also contains rich spiritual connotations such as leadership, pioneering, responsibility and conquest. In this regard, Sun Huibin, executive deputy general manager of the FAW-Volkswagen Sales Co., Ltd. and executive director of Volkswagen Brands, said: "As a benchmark for the value of the new generation of high-end mid-size SUVs, FAW-Volkswagen Discovery is dedicated to the new middle class and fully fits them. The spirit of courage to climb and dare to conquer, and strive to let this group of people find the greatest life fun in the journey of exploration and become the 'best partner' on their way to life."

Not only that, FAW-Volkswagen will open the "Landscape China - Exploring Yue Ji" in the name of "Exploring Yue", exploring China's profound mountain culture and ancient civilization, and discovering the unknown beauty and human history. It can be said that accompanying the new middle class to realize the dream of life, marking the era that belongs to them, is the initial heart of the exploration of Yue.

In the future, FAW-Volkswagen will also use the exploration of Yue as the core and foothold to comprehensively lay out the matrix of high-end medium-sized SUV products, including the exploration of R-Line models, PHEV SUV models and COUPE SUV models, to better meet the diversification of consumers. Personalized car demand.

At the press conference, Mr. Dong also announced that Tangyue will be listed in Chengdu on October 22. We look forward to its arrival, and even more reason to believe that under the guidance of FAW-Volkswagen's brand concept of “creating and enjoying high quality”, explorer will lead the development of China's SUV with its strong product strength and pioneering brand style. The trend has become the benchmark for the value of the new generation of high-end mid-size SUVs!

Modified Jetta breaks the speed record in its class in the USA with 338 km/h

September 19, 2018 0


  •  Jetta proves its potential on the legendary Bonneville Salt Flats in the USA
  •  The record-breaking Jetta is powered by a modified TSI engine with a power of 608 PS 
  •  After the success of the I.D. R Pikes Peak, Volkswagen has now set a third record within a very short time with the Jetta 


Wolfsburg (D) / Herndon (USA) – Volkswagen of America has demonstrated the potential of the new Jetta at the Bonneville Salt Flats in the USA. Here a specially equipped Jetta broke the previous world speed record of its class for land vehicles with 338 km/h. Only a few weeks after the success of the electrically powered I.D R Pikes Peak at the “Race To The Clouds” in the Rocky Mountains and at Goodwood Hill Climb in the UK, Volkswagen has secured its third record.

A four-cylinder turbo engine (TSI) from the EA888 series was responsible for the powerful propulsion of the new Jetta1. This engine is also used in other sporty Volkswagen models such as the Golf GTI Performance2 (180 kW / 245 PS). For the record-breaking rides, the power of the sports car engine was increased to 447 kW / 608 PS (at 8,500 rpm). Volkswagen engineers used new connecting rods, pistons, valves and camshafts as well as a larger turbocharger and a new exhaust system. The standard cylinder block and crankshaft remained unchanged.

The powerful TSI engine had an easy time with the new Jetta, as this Volkswagen is extremely aerodynamic. Thanks to a drag coefficient of 0.27, the Jetta raced with particularly low resistance through the dry air at Bonneville Salt Flats in the US state of Utah. It broke the previous record of 335.50 km/h (208.47 mph) with exactly 338.15 km/h (210.16 mph) in the BGC/G class of the Southern California Timing Association.

“The achievement of this speed in Bonneville proves the quality, durability, performance and efficiency of Volkswagen TSI engines and the aerodynamic performance of the new Jetta,” says Hinrich J. Woebcken, President and CEO of Volkswagen of America. Woebcken continues: “This record highlights the sporty qualities of our Jetta. It also provides a look into the future of the sedan, as we are using a modified version of the EA888 in the record-breaking car. This powerful TSI will also be used in the new Jetta GLI in the future.”

Achieving speeds of well over 300 km/h on the Salt Flats places special demands on the vehicle. The recording-breaking Jetta therefore features technical details such as a lowered chassis, special wheels and tyres for the Salt Flats, a limited slip differential for optimum traction and two brake parachutes at the rear. The interior was also completely cleared out. Only the controls for driving, a bucket seat with racing belts, a stable rollover cage and a fire extinguishing system remained.

The Jetta was built by Volkswagen of America together with the technicians of THR Manufacturing in Ventura, California (USA), who specialise in record-breaking driving of this type. The Salt Flats veteran Scott Goetz was at the wheel of the Volkswagen. “It was a great experience driving this car on the Salt Flats. Even at top speed, the Jetta provided a safe driving experience and I'm very happy we broke the record.”

Volkswagen Prepares All-New 2019 Jetta For Bonneville Speed Record Attempt

June 22, 2018 0


All-new Jetta is the basis for the Bonneville Jetta, which uses a 2.0-liter TSI® turbocharged four-cylinder engine for an assault on the BGC/G record at Bonneville Speed Week in August



Herndon, VA (June 22nd, 2018) – Volkswagen of America, Inc., announced today that it has prepared a specially-tuned 2019 Volkswagen Jetta to attempt the Southern California Timing Association’s BGC/G class record at the famed Bonneville Salt Flats in Wendover, Utah, over August 11-17, 2018. The Bonneville Jetta will be powered by a modified version of Volkswagen’s EA888 2.0-liter turbocharged and direct injection four-cylinder engine.

Built by Bonneville preparation specialists THR Manufacturing, based in Ventura, Calif., the Jetta previews the powertrain that will be used in the forthcoming Jetta GLI performance model. Volkswagen is hopeful that it can beat the existing class record of 208.472 mph, showcasing both the potential performance that the EA888 engine can achieve with modifications, and the all-new Jetta’s exceptionally aerodynamic shape, which yields a drag coefficient of just 0.27.

“We are delighted with the reception for the all-new 2019 Jetta in North America,” said Hinrich J. Woebcken, CEO of the North America Region, Volkswagen. “With the attempt on the Bonneville speed record with the Jetta, we want to underline the Jetta’s sporty credentials and get customers excited for the more performance-oriented Jetta GLI on the way.”

To run at high speed on the salt, the Bonneville Jetta has had many other changes from stock. The suspension has been lowered, special Salt Flat wheels and tires fitted, and a limited-slip differential added to aid traction. The interior has been stripped and outfitted with full safety equipment—such as a roll cage, racing seat and harness—and a fire suppression system. To help slow the car down, the Bonneville Jetta has been fitted with a pair of parachutes.

The Bonneville Jetta’s graphic treatment was the work of Volkswagen’s Southern California Design Center. “This was a truly fun project to be involved in,” said Reto Brun, Director, Volkswagen Design Center California. “We wanted to highlight the sporty nature of the Jetta and give the car design graphics that would make it really stand out on the alien-like environment of the Bonneville Salt Flats. We wish the team luck as they attempt to make this the fastest Jetta—and the fastest production-based Volkswagen—ever seen!”
