Are the Three Major Components of Lavida Start and Santana the Same?

[VanMelanie]

Lavida Start and Santana do not share the same three major components. Engine: Both are equipped with the EA211 all-aluminum engine, which demonstrates excellent fuel efficiency. Santana comes with the EA211 series 1.4L and 1.6L naturally aspirated engines, with maximum power outputs of 90 and 110 horsepower respectively, and peak torque of 132 and 155 Nm. In terms of powertrain options, Lavida offers 1.6L, 1.2T, and 1.4T variants, with the two turbocharged engines delivering notably stronger performance. Transmission: Both models use a 6AT transmission, but Santana lacks a manual-shift function. For the chassis, Lavida employs four-wheel disc brakes, whereas Santana uses front disc and rear drum brakes. Safety Features: Lavida comes standard across all trims with ESP (Electronic Stability Program), tire pressure monitoring, and even MKB (Multi-Collision Brake) system, significantly reducing secondary impacts caused by subsequent collisions in rear-end scenarios.
