Volkswagen Cross Santana
This is the new Volkswagen Cross Santana for China, it will
be launched on the Chinese car market in Q3, priced
from 110.000 to 150.000 yuan. The Cross Santana is a cross-variant of the Gran
Santana, which is a hatchback-wagon of the Santana
sedan.
The
Cross Santana gets the usual cross treatment; black wheel arches, black
cladding on the doors, skid pads, and roof rails to attach the canoe to.
The Cross Santana indeed is an example of how to create a ‘new’ car with
very little effort. And Volkswagen will likely make a nice buick out of it
because these cross variants are very popular in China.
Volkswagen still fits giant lights while smaller ones have been the new
trend for a while. They also do not fit anything between those lights, while
the entire rest of the Chinese automotive world has a shiny strip there. The
Cross Santana is made by Shanghai-Volkswagen.
