What are the differences between the New Santana and the Eado in Subject Two?
2 Answers
The differences between the Eado and the New Santana are as follows: 1. Interior: The New Santana adopts a family-style design, giving an overall impression of stability and restraint. The interior design of the Changan Eado is dynamic and youthful, with a dark upper and light lower color scheme that is more suitable for family use. Both the New Santana and the Eado feature a three-spoke multifunction steering wheel, which feels relatively firm, and both have manual two-way adjustment without telescopic functionality. 2. Body Dimensions: In terms of body dimensions, the New Santana measures 4473mm in length, 1706mm in width, and 1469mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2603mm. The Eado measures 4620mm in length, 1820mm in width, and 1469mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2660mm, making it slightly larger than the New Santana. The side profile of the New Santana is more angular, maintaining Volkswagen's consistent design style. The Eado's side lines are simpler and more elegant.
For the Subject 2 driving test, the new Santana and Changan Eado are both commonly used models, but they have quite different characteristics. The new Santana's steering wheel is extremely heavy, requiring more effort to turn, but the upside is that it provides precise feedback for reverse parking and parallel parking. Once you've practiced with it, driving other cars becomes much easier. Driving schools love using it because it's durable and rarely breaks down. The Eado's steering wheel is light, making it easy even for female drivers to turn, but its clutch releases quickly and is prone to stalling. For hill starts, you need to press the accelerator a bit more to adapt. Those who get nervous during the test might need extra practice for this part.
