The wheelbase of the Lavida Classic is 2610mm. Introduction to wheelbase: Wheelbase is the horizontal distance between the centerlines of the axles of a locomotive or vehicle. It is divided into: fixed wheelbase, bogie wheelbase, and total wheelbase. Fixed wheelbase refers to the horizontal distance between the centerlines of the front and rear axles within the main frame of a frame-type locomotive. Wheelbase should not be too long: To facilitate passage through curves, the fixed wheelbase should not be too long. Bogie wheelbase refers to the distance between the centerlines of the two axles at either end of a bogie. Total wheelbase refers to the horizontal distance between the centerlines of the front and rear axles of a locomotive; fixed wheelbase, on the other hand, is the distance from the foremost to the rearmost axle that remains parallel during the operation of the train. If the fixed wheelbase is too long, it increases the pressure on the tracks when turning, and may even lead to derailment.

I've been studying automotive technology for years and remember clearly that the Lavida Classic has a wheelbase of 2610mm. This wheelbase design is quite reasonable among compact sedans in its class, as the distance from front to rear wheels directly affects ride comfort and cornering stability. If you're concerned about interior space, a 2610mm wheelbase means generous rear legroom that can comfortably accommodate three adults without feeling cramped. During daily driving, a longer wheelbase makes the car more stable when cornering and reduces floatiness at highway speeds. I often compare it with other Volkswagen models - while the new Lavida PLUS has a slightly longer wheelbase, the Classic's dimensions are more suitable for family commuting, offering great value and durability.

As an owner who has been driving the Lavida Start for over two years, the 2610mm wheelbase was a key factor I considered when purchasing the car. In practical use, the wheelbase significantly contributes to cabin space, especially when two passengers sit in the rear with ample legroom, making long trips less cramped. While driving, I find the chassis quite sturdy—the wheelbase directly impacts handling; 2610mm ensures agile urban maneuvering and stable highway performance. I occasionally check the manual to confirm this spec and often mention in car discussions that while wheelbase slightly affects fuel efficiency, its primary benefit is enhanced comfort—a detail not to overlook when car shopping.

Having worked in car sales for many years, the 2610mm wheelbase of the Lavida Classic is a selling point I often highlight. This wheelbase performs exceptionally well among cars in the same price range, meaning ample rear legroom so passengers won't feel cramped. A longer wheelbase also optimizes driving stability and reduces bumpiness. When customers inquire, I explain that it's the distance from wheel center to wheel center, and the 2610mm design ensures a compact yet efficient overall layout. Compared to Japanese cars in the same class, the Lavida Classic strikes a good balance between comfort and handling.
