What are the differences between the Bora Legend and the all-new Bora?
2 Answers
Bora Legend and the all-new Bora differ in their manufacturing platforms: the Bora Legend is built on the PQ34 platform, while the all-new Bora is built on the MQB platform. The Bora Legend is a compact car with body dimensions of 4562mm in length, 1793mm in width, and 1468mm in height. In terms of power, the Bora Legend is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, model code EA211-DLF, with a maximum power output of 82 kW, maximum torque of 145 Nm, maximum power speed of 6100 rpm, and maximum torque speed of 4000 rpm.
I've driven the Bora Legend for several years and feel it leans more towards a classic style, with a rugged exterior featuring straight lines, traditional physical buttons in the interior, and a lot of plastic materials. The engine sound is a bit loud but it's durable. The new-generation Bora has a much more modern design, with a streamlined body and LED lights, and the interior has been updated to a touchscreen infotainment system supporting smart voice commands and internet connectivity, making it both user-friendly and trendy. Under the hood, the new Bora features a 1.5T turbocharged engine that's more fuel-efficient, powerful, and quieter; the Legend still uses a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, which consumes more fuel but has lower maintenance costs. In terms of price, the Legend is more affordable, suitable for new drivers or those on a tight budget; the new Bora is pricier but comes with more safety features like automatic emergency braking. Overall, the Legend is a reliable starter car, while the new Bora represents technological progress, offering a significantly upgraded driving experience.
