2019 Magotan Leading and Luxury models differences: 1. Different body dimensions: The 2019 Magotan Leading measures 4855mm in length, 1832mm in width, and 1464mm in height; the Luxury model measures 4933mm in length, 1836mm in width, and 1469mm in height. 2. Different configurations: The 2019 Magotan Leading is equipped with rear side airbags and knee airbags; the Luxury model features fatigue driving reminder and rearview camera. The Magotan is a mid-size sedan under the Volkswagen brand, which has gained popularity among many consumers since its launch. The 2019 Magotan is equipped with three types of engines: a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine, a low-power 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, and a high-power 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. All three engines are paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
As an owner of the 2019 Magotan, I found noticeable differences between the Leading trim and the Luxury trim. The Luxury trim adds leather seats with power adjustment, which significantly reduces back fatigue on long drives. It also features a larger touchscreen infotainment system with built-in navigation, eliminating the need for a phone mount. Additionally, it includes a rearview camera and heated mirrors, greatly improving safety in rainy conditions. While the Leading trim covers basic functions well with decent AC and audio, it lacks these comfort features. Price-wise, the Luxury trim costs a few thousand yuan more – worth upgrading if you frequently take long trips. By the way, the Luxury trim also comes standard with ambient lighting and a sunroof, making night drives much more enjoyable. During maintenance, the mechanic mentioned that the Luxury trim's additional electronic components may lead to slightly higher upkeep costs in the long run.
Driving the 2019 Magotan Luxury Edition feels more comfortable. It comes standard with adaptive cruise control and blind spot monitoring, making highway autonomous driving assistance more stable. Most of these safety features in the Leading Edition require optional upgrades, otherwise, you need to stay more focused while driving. The luxury seats come with heating and ventilation, ensuring comfort in both winter and summer, while the Leading Edition only has ordinary fabric seats. In terms of interior, the Luxury Edition features piano black lacquer panels with wood grain trim, giving it a much more premium look. Both versions have the same engine, so there's no significant difference in driving feel. Spending a bit more on the Luxury Edition enhances daily convenience, especially with the automatic follow-up system in traffic jams, which saves both effort and worry. During maintenance, note that the Luxury Edition has more electrical components, so it may require more frequent checks.
