IT News from September 28th: SAIC Volkswagen announced today (the 28th) through its official WeChat account that the first batch of the new Lingdu L models exported to Mexico has recently rolled off the production line and set off for overseas. With SAIC Volkswagen's products entering the North American market for the first time, the company's vehicle export business has once again expanded its market territory.

According to the introduction, the Mexican market is one of the most active passenger car consumption markets in North America, with a solid foundation for sedan consumption. With the rise of the local young consumer group, there is a continuous growing demand for personalized coupes that combine sporty design with daily practicality in the Mexican automotive market. Currently, SAIC Volkswagen's vehicle export business covers countries in Southeast Asia and Central Asia, such as the Philippines, Vietnam, and Uzbekistan.

In the future, in addition to fuel products, new energy vehicles such as ID and ERA 9X will also be exported overseas one after another.

According to IT, the Lingdu L is available with two power options. The GTS model is equipped with the same 2.0T high-power engine as the Golf GTI, featuring a maximum power of 162kW and a peak torque of 350Nm. Coupled with a DQ381 dual-clutch transmission, it has a shift speed of 200 milliseconds and can accelerate from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in 6.98 seconds.

At the same time, the new Lingdu L also offers a 1.5T version as an option. This version not only sees a comprehensive upgrade to its power output from the original 1.4T engine but is also equipped with the EA211 1.5T EVO II Pure Efficiency engine, which is known as the "King of Pure Efficiency," and it incorporates technologies such as Porsche's own VTG variable cross-section turbocharging.
