The Volkswagen Lamando (Chinese: 大众凌渡; pinyin: Dàzhòng Língdù) is a compact sedan manufactured by Volkswagen through its joint venture SAIC Volkswagen in China.^[1] It debuted at the Chengdu Auto Show in August 2014 and was launched in China in November 2014.^[2] The Lamando is positioned as the low-slung version of the Sagitar (Jetta outside China) in the country, as it is the case with the Volkswagen CC to the Passat.

First generation (2014)

The first-generation Lamando is powered by a 1.4-litre turbocharged petrol engine producing 110 kW (150 PS; 148 hp) and 250 N⋅m (184 lb⋅ft; 25 kg⋅m) of torque mated to a 7-speed DSG gearbox as the only transmission offered for the vehicle. The Lamando is capable of doing a 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) acceleration in 8.5 seconds and has a top speed of 210 km/h (130 mph). Only front-wheel-drive is available. The 4-wheel disk brakes and electrically assisted steering is standard. Suspension is independent MacPherson struts at the front and an independent four-link suspension at the rear.^[3]

Styling wise, several design features have been enhanced on the GTS, including the front bumper with extra-large air intakes and the upper grille featuring a red GTI-like stripe and honeycomb grilles.^[6] The Lamando was used on the Chinese version of Top Gear as part of the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car segment in the second season, replacing the Ford Focus.
