Does the Volkswagen Lavida have a one-button start?
2 Answers
Volkswagen Lavida is equipped with a one-button start, and its usage method is: 1. Press the start button twice consecutively; 2. Depress the brake, then press the one-button start button once more; 3. Start the vehicle. The Volkswagen Lavida is a compact 4-door, 5-seater sedan with body dimensions of: length 4670mm, width 1806mm, height 1474mm, and a wheelbase of 2688mm. It is powered by a 1.4T turbocharged engine paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, delivering a maximum power of 110 kW and a maximum torque of 250 Nm. The drive system is front-wheel drive, with a MacPherson strut independent suspension at the front and a torsion beam non-independent suspension at the rear.
I'm currently driving a Volkswagen Lavida, the high-end version, 2019 model, and it does have a push-button start feature. With just a press of a button, the engine starts, which is incredibly convenient, especially in winter or when you're in a hurry to go out—no need to fumble for keys, just pull the door handle to unlock. This feature is more common in the Lavida's Premium or Luxury trims, while the base model might not have it. I find the push-button start really practical; it prevents keyhole wear and enhances anti-theft security since the vehicle detects the presence of the smart key. If you're considering buying a Lavida, you can check the specific model's configuration list or ask the sales staff. Some older models might require an aftermarket installation, but recent high-end versions come with this technology as standard, making driving feel more hassle-free and modern.
