2 Answers
The Lavida PLUS 1.4T model weighs 1.3 tons, and the 1.5L model weighs 1.25 tons. Dimensions: The new Lavida Plus has a body length of 4670mm, width of 1806mm, height of 1474mm, and a wheelbase of 2688mm. Powertrain: The new generation Lavida is equipped with two powertrains: 1.5L/1.4T, with maximum power outputs of 85/110kW and peak torques of 150/250Nm respectively. In terms of transmission, the new car is matched with a 5-speed manual, 6-speed automatic manual, and 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I've been driving the Lavida Plus for several years as my daily commuter. Its weight ranges between 1,280 kg to 1,300 kg depending on the configuration - manual transmissions are slightly lighter while automatics weigh more. In actual driving, this weight gives a very stable feel - no floating sensations on highways, with decent steering response. Particularly when cornering, the body doesn't lean as severely as lighter vehicles. Of course, the extra weight does increase fuel consumption - my car averages about 7-8L/100km in city driving, slightly better in suburban areas. I remember during heavy rain, the weight provided better traction and improved safety. Long-term though, tire wear is faster than lighter cars, requiring more attention to balancing during maintenance. Overall, this weight is quite suitable for daily commuting, offering a good balance between comfort and handling. Personally, I consider it excellent value.
