Does the Magotan have four-wheel drive?
2 Answers
The Magotan does have four-wheel drive models, including: the 2012 Magotan imported wagon, the 2007 Magotan imported luxury version, and the 2007 Magotan imported premium version. Four-wheel drive means the vehicle maintains all-wheel drive throughout the entire driving process. Taking the 2012 Magotan imported wagon as an example, it belongs to the mid-size car category with body dimensions of: length 4771mm, width 1820mm, height 1550mm, and a wheelbase of 2712mm. The 2012 Magotan imported wagon is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 155kW, maximum horsepower of 211PS, and maximum torque of 280Nm, paired with a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission.
To be honest, I've driven several generations of the Magotan. Currently, all models sold domestically are front-wheel drive configurations. Volkswagen positions the Magotan as a city elite vehicle, and front-wheel drive fully meets daily commuting needs. However, in earlier years, the imported Magotan Variant did come with a 4Motion all-wheel-drive version. That fifth-generation Haldex system was particularly stable on icy roads, and you might still occasionally find used ones at parallel import dealers. If you're set on an all-wheel-drive sedan, the Audi A4L quattro version next door is a more realistic option—it's pricier but genuinely superior in mechanical performance.
