1 Answers
The body dimensions of the Volkswagen Tharu are 4453/1841/1632mm (length/width/height), which are official data. The length of the Volkswagen Tharu refers to the distance between two vertical planes perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and touching the outermost protruding parts at the front and rear of the vehicle. The width refers to the distance between two planes parallel to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and touching the outermost rigid fixed protruding parts on both sides of the vehicle. The height refers to the distance between the highest point of the vehicle and the supporting plane of the vehicle. The Volkswagen Tharu is equipped with 1.4T and 2.0T turbocharged engines, delivering maximum horsepower of 150 and 186, and maximum torque of 250 Nm and 320 Nm, respectively. It is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, achieving a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 9.1 seconds and a fuel consumption of 6L per 100 km. Additionally, a four-wheel-drive system is available as an option. National regulations stipulate specific dimensions for vehicles. According to the national standard 'GB1589-89,' the total width of a vehicle does not include side mirrors. The limitation on vehicle width is designed to provide sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking between adjacent lanes. This means that, according to national standards, the significance of vehicle width data lies in ensuring enough space during overtaking, preventing accidents due to excessive width or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle's width. Furthermore, national regulations stipulate that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to meet the requirements of public road usage.
