The Volkswagen Magotan is a mid-size car under the Volkswagen Group, known as the Magotan in China. It was launched in July 2007 and originates from the Future B6, which is closely related to the Volkswagen Passat B6, representing the sixth generation of the Passat brand. Below are the specifications of the 2020 Magotan: its body dimensions are 4865mm in length, 1832mm in width, and 1471mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2871mm. It has a fuel tank capacity of 66 liters and a trunk capacity of 533 liters, with a curb weight of 1445kg. The 2020 Magotan features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a multi-link rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.4L turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 150PS, a maximum power of 110kW, and a maximum torque of 250Nm, paired with an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission.
Magotan is actually the Chinese name for the Volkswagen Passat. I've driven this car and found it quite impressive. As a mid-size sedan, it's quite common in the domestic market, very similar to the European version of the Passat but with some minor adjustments. When I was buying a car, I compared several models, and what attracted me to the Magotan was its comfort and practicality. It's especially suitable for family use, with spacious rear seats and a trunk large enough for luggage. It's stable for daily driving, and noise control on the highway is good. The fuel consumption isn't too high, around 8-9 liters per 100 kilometers in the city. Maintenance is relatively convenient, with reasonable costs at 4S shops. Overall, it's reliable in quality with no major issues—just occasional tire changes or minor maintenance. If you're considering a similar model, it's worth taking a test drive.
