On April 11, Volkswagen Import Auto announced that the Arteon Shooting Brake R-Line (Arteon SR for short) was officially launched, priced at 348,000 yuan. As an imported version of the domestically produced Volkswagen CC hunting car from Germany, the Arteon SR has canceled the crossover package and adopted the R-Line sports package, which is slightly different in style.
In terms of styling, Arteon SR inherits the name of Shooting Brake hunting suit, and the body lines extend to the rear of the car. And integrated with the spoiler, the whole vehicle has a lower and more powerful stance. Compared with the CC hunting car with a crossover shape, the Arteon SR is equipped with an R-Line style sports package, with exclusive Phantom Blue paint and 19-inch wheels, which looks sporty.
It is worth mentioning that the trunk storage space can range from 590-1632 liters Adjustment, combined with the tailgate induction opening and closing function, makes it more convenient to pick up and place luggage.
Coming to the interior, Arteon SR and CC hunting suit There is not much difference between the cars. The new car is equipped with R-Line interior components, including Nappa leather sports seats with R logo (unique to the imported version). The full LCD instrument, HUD head-up display and CNS 3.0 smart car navigation infotainment system (9.2-inch touch color screen) are all equipped on the new car to achieve three-screen interconnection and interaction.
In terms of configuration, it includes 14-way electric-adjustable front seats and a multi-function leather sports steering wheel (with paddle shifters) , keyless entry and one-button start system, three-zone independent temperature control automatic air conditioning, mobile phone wireless charging, 30-color indoor atmosphere lighting, Harman Kardon brand audio and other rich configurations.
In terms of power, Arteon SR is equipped with a 2.0TSI engine with a maximum power of 140kW and a peak torque of 320N·m. The transmission part is matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox. In addition, the new car is also equipped with XDS electronic differential lock, Travel Assist full-journey driving assistance system, ACC adaptive cruise, pre-collision safety system and multiple collision prevention system.
According to Bitauto App, FAW-Volkswagen CC ranks 20th in mid-size car sales. As a niche model, the monthly sales volume of about 1,500 units is considered quite satisfactory. Although this sales data includes the CC sedan and hunting version, it can still reflect people's recognition of the Volkswagen CC to a certain extent. I believe that the introduction of the original Arteon SR equipped with the R-Line appearance package is expected to achieve better market sales than the Weilan.
