What is the minimum ground clearance of the Volkswagen New Lavida?
2 Answers
The minimum ground clearance of the Volkswagen New Lavida is 110mm. Ground clearance refers to the distance between the lowest point of the vehicle (excluding the wheels) and the supporting surface when the car is fully loaded and stationary. Taking the Lavida 2021 model as an example, it is a 4-door, 5-seat compact car with body dimensions of: length 4670mm, width 1806mm, height 1474mm, wheelbase of 2688mm, luggage compartment volume of 510l, and a curb weight of 1318kg. The Lavida 2021 model is equipped with a 1.4l turbocharged engine with a maximum horsepower of 150ps, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
As someone who has been repairing cars for over a decade, let me talk about the minimum ground clearance of the new Lavida. The Volkswagen New Lavida typically has a minimum ground clearance of around 120mm, which is quite standard for a sedan. This design aims to balance high-speed stability and fuel efficiency, but the lower chassis makes it prone to scraping on rough roads. I've seen many owners damage their chassis when driving in rural areas, and repairs can be costly. I recommend that owners who frequently drive between urban and rural areas regularly check their suspension and avoid overloading. The Lavida has slightly higher clearance than some sporty sedans but lower than SUVs. It's fine for city driving, but avoid forcing through deep water during heavy rains to protect your car.
