2 Answers
The total weight of the Magotan varies depending on the model. Taking the 2020 Magotan as an example, the total weights are 1445kg, 1540kg, and 1580kg respectively. The Magotan is a mid-size car under FAW-Volkswagen. For instance, the 2020 Magotan 280TSI DSG Comfort model has dimensions of 4865mm in length, 1832mm in width, and 1471mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2871mm. The body adopts a 4-door, 5-seat sedan structure. In terms of power, the 2020 Magotan 280TSI DSG Comfort is equipped with a 1.4L inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 110kW and a maximum torque of 250Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I've been driving the Magotan for several years and feel its total weight is around 1,600 kg, which is slightly heavier than average cars. It drives very steadily, especially on highways where it doesn't feel floaty. The increased weight leads to slightly higher fuel consumption, averaging around 9 liters per 100 km, so I frequently check tire pressure to maintain efficiency. When parking, you need to pay attention to space because the turning radius is a bit larger. During maintenance, it's essential to ensure the braking system is in good condition—safety first, as heavier cars have greater inertia. Occasionally carrying passengers or cargo is no problem, thanks to its solid chassis that minimizes bumps. Overall, it's an excellent choice for a family car.
