2021 Lavida's central control screen model is Tianbao 869. Here is more extended information about the 2021 Lavida: 1. Basic Introduction: The Lavida is a sedan produced by Shanghai Volkswagen and was launched in June 2008. While continuing the design language of "dynamic and stylish" in the A-segment car market, the Lavida embodies a new design DNA—"fusion." As a new car tailor-made for Chinese consumers, the Lavida maintains the excellent quality of German design while incorporating many aesthetic concepts reflecting traditional Chinese culture and cutting-edge design elements. 2. Name Meaning: As a new A-segment car launched by Shanghai Volkswagen, the naming of the Lavida is profound in meaning. Its English name, LAVIDA, is a typical Spanish word meaning life, living, and hope, representing the dynamic force of life and a lifestyle full of fun, advocating the latent potential of life bursting from within and the passion and motivation to move towards a better life. The Chinese name, Lang Yi, also has a unique charm: "Lang" represents the bright, smooth, and elegant car design style and outstanding product quality, while "Yi" represents the carefree and elegant driving experience brought by the powerful performance and leading technological product configuration.

As an owner of the 2021 Lavida, I learned from my test drive that its infotainment screen models vary by configuration. The base model comes with the Composition Touch system, typically a 6.5-inch monochrome screen supporting basic functions like radio and Bluetooth audio. Mid-range and higher trims upgrade to the Discover Media 8-inch full-color touchscreen, which supports CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration with smooth operation—I find the navigation very convenient in daily use. To confirm the specific model, it's best to check the vehicle's manual or look up the software version in system settings, such as the common MIB2.5 series identifier. The screen responds quickly, though it consumes more power; if navigation isn't used for long periods, turning off background apps can save energy. In short, carefully reviewing the spec sheet when choosing a car is crucial to avoid incompatible accessories.

I used to help friends fix many issues with the Lavida, and the central display of the 2021 model is indeed quite important. The basic version mostly uses a 6.5-inch small screen, model name Composition Color; the higher-end versions come with an 8-inch Discover Media large screen, typically model MIB2.5. My personal advice to owners is to test the touchscreen response first after getting in the car—it might occasionally lag or have connection issues, but these are usually resolved quickly after a software update. If you want to save money, you can find compatible parts in the second-hand market, but always verify the original serial number. Although the screen looks good, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, as it can reduce lifespan and affect audio playback. A simple solution is to have it checked during maintenance at the 4S shop, which can save a lot of trouble.

Considering the price factor, I paid attention to the screen options of the 2021 Lavida when choosing a car. The most affordable base model comes with a 6.5-inch screen, suitable for daily commuting; upgrading to the 8-inch Discover Pro costs a few thousand yuan more but adds navigation and Wi-Fi hotspot, which is quite worthwhile. Specific models can be checked on the vehicle invoice or the official website. I also researched modification options, such as installing a third-party Android screen, which is cheaper but has poor compatibility and is less stable than the factory-installed one. Remember that different screen sizes affect the cabin aesthetics—a larger screen gives the interior a more modern feel. For maintenance, regularly clean the screen with a soft cloth to avoid scratches and extend its lifespan.
