4 Answers
The body dimensions of the Magotan are 4866mm in length, 1832mm in width, and 1464mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2812mm. The Magotan is a model under FAW-Volkswagen and also the first B-class sedan produced and sold by FAW-Volkswagen since its establishment. In terms of appearance, the Magotan features a resolute V-shaped front face that exudes stability and grandeur, along with dynamic and stylish streamlined body lines, boasting a drag coefficient as low as 0.28. The 'compound fisheye' adaptive turning bi-xenon headlights, representing its design philosophy, fully showcase its intelligent and composed demeanor. From the front view, the overall design of the Magotan resembles the X-shaped styling of the Phaeton, with extensive use of chrome decorations and dual horizontal lines, highlighting its noble and extraordinary regal temperament.
I usually drive a Magotan to work. The body size is quite standard, about 4865 mm in length, 1832 mm in width, and 1469 mm in height. This size is quite friendly for city driving, with a relatively small turning radius, making it easy to enter and exit underground parking lots. However, during peak hours, you need to be careful about the width to avoid scratches. The interior space is ample, with generous legroom in the back seats, comfortably accommodating three adults, making it very suitable for family use. The long wheelbase means it’s more stable at high speeds, and fuel consumption is well controlled, averaging around 8-9 liters per 100 km. Regular maintenance and cleaning the body can be a bit of a hassle, but the safety and comfort are excellent, making long drives less tiring. Occasionally, on weekends when going to the outskirts, the trunk can hold a lot of luggage, making it very practical.
I've test-driven several mid-size sedans, and the Passat's body dimensions left a deep impression on me. With a length of 4865mm, width of 1832mm, and height of 1469mm. From an engineering perspective, this proportion is well-designed - the long wheelbase enhances handling stability, while the low drag coefficient reduces high-speed noise. The sufficient width provides good lateral support, making cornering more confident, though it might be slightly challenging on narrow roads. In terms of space utilization, there's ample headroom and legroom in both front and rear rows, especially suitable for taller drivers. Compared to its classmate the Accord, the Passat is slightly wider and more practical. The dimensions affect overall weight, with the moderate vehicle weight striking a balance between fuel efficiency and acceleration performance, resulting in a very well-rounded driving experience.
When I bought the car, I specifically measured the dimensions of the Magotan. It's approximately 4.87 meters long, 1.83 meters wide, and 1.47 meters tall. This size makes it quite easy to handle, perfect for daily commuting, and parking is more convenient, especially when parallel parking with some extra space. The spacious interior is a highlight, with ample room in the back seat for a child seat, and the trunk easily accommodates a stroller. The size design gives it a sleek, streamlined appearance, reducing wind resistance for better fuel efficiency, and it offers quick power response for city driving.
