Recently, I've also been researching these two versions of the Levin. As a family car buyer, I feel the differences are quite noticeable. The basic version is the entry-level model with complete fundamental features but plain configurations, such as the plastic steering wheel and fabric seats, which may show wear more easily in daily use. The luxury version is much more refined, featuring a leather-wrapped steering wheel that's much more comfortable to grip, plus added conveniences like smart key and push-button start – a real lifesaver in winter when you don't have to fumble for keys. What I value most about the luxury version is the additional side airbags and curtain airbags, providing more comprehensive protection in emergencies. The luxury version comes with 16-inch tires, offering more stable handling compared to the 15-inch tires on the basic version. Although the luxury version costs about ten thousand yuan more, considering the hidden costs of later additions like a rearview camera, it actually works out to be more cost-effective.

We chose the Leiling Luxury Edition, and the most noticeable difference is the completely different feeling when sitting inside. The Entry Edition comes with fabric seats, which are hard to clean if kids spill drinks; the Luxury Edition features synthetic leather seats that can be wiped clean with a cloth—super practical for families with kids. In terms of safety, the Luxury Edition adds side airbags and curtain airbags, making school drop-offs and pickups much more reassuring. The remote key in the Luxury Edition is smart and sensor-based, so you can easily unlock and start the car even with your hands full of grocery bags. The 16-inch wheels provide noticeably better grip compared to the 15-inch wheels in the Entry Edition, reducing the risk of skidding in rainy conditions. Although it’s slightly more expensive, these daily-use upgrades are totally worth it.

After comparing the specifications of both versions, the core upgrades in the Premium trim focus on intelligent and safety systems. It comes standard with Toyota Safety Sense, featuring functions like Lane Departure Alert and Automatic High Beam, which are absent in the Base trim. The Premium version includes a Smart Entry system, allowing keyless unlocking. The steering wheel is wrapped in leather, offering a significantly better feel than the plastic one in the Base model. Although both trims have manual seat adjustment, the Premium version uses premium fabric upholstery with noticeably improved support. In terms of airbags, the Premium trim adds front side and curtain airbags, providing more comprehensive passive safety. The price difference mainly reflects these hardware and electronic configurations, making the Premium trim more appealing to buyers who prioritize technological features.
