AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)02/16 Report--

As a small car that has been in China for a long time, Honda Feido has long been loved by Chinese people, and its reputation as a "super GK5" has also captured many young consumers and modified fans. However, because the national six emission standard has been implemented in the domestic automobile market, and the cash flying has not been launched yet, many consumers have focused on the new flying, which has attracted much attention before it is listed in China.

However, the new fourth-generation Honda Feido has been officially launched in the Japanese local market recently, with a total of five versions of the new car, priced from 1557600 yen, or about 99000 yuan. It is expected that the domestic version of Feido will be unveiled at the Beijing Auto Show in April this year and will be available this year.

But unfortunately, a sudden epidemic has disrupted all plans. affected by the current novel coronavirus epidemic in China, the Beijing Motor Show, originally scheduled to open on April 21, may be postponed, depending on the epidemic situation. but this is not an official announcement.

According to an industry source quoted by the media, "this is unofficial, but it is certain that at least there will be no auto show in April." However, there has been no official response to this.

In fact, the current spread of the epidemic is still relatively serious. according to Zhong Nanshan a few days ago, the national outbreak period will be in late February and is expected to end by April, but this is only a conservative estimate. Therefore, reducing crowd density is the best way to prevent and control the epidemic, which means that the auto show may not be able to open as scheduled.

However, Honda is relatively conservative about the launch time of the new Fido. In early January this year, Honda held a media conference and announced the strategic plan for new cars in China in 2020, in which the new Fido will still be produced and sold by GAC Honda. There is no mention of the previously reported Dongfeng Honda will also bring a "two-car strategy." As for the time only that it will be unveiled at the Beijing Auto Show and launched this year, it is clear that it will take some time to compete for the old flying model, but its sales are gradually declining because there are only five models in the country.

The new flying degree has a great change with the previous generation of models, the overall vision has become more rounded, the intake grille shape compared with the current model has also been comprehensively optimized, according to different versions have different styles. The side of the car body retains the design of A-pillar triangular window, which can effectively reduce the driving blind area. at the same time, the overall posture of the car body is still relatively low, and the rear vision tends to MPV design.

The interior also changes greatly, but there are not many bright spots, the layout of the central control area becomes more concise, and the most noteworthy is that the steering wheel has changed from the previous three-spoke to the two-spoke design. Although it is a small car, the new Fido has made a lot of designs in space, not only supporting the 4x6 ratio to put down, but also the second row of seats can be folded up, greatly improving the practicality of the space.

The new generation of Fido listed in Japan not only carries a 1.3L four-cylinder engine, but also provides a hybrid option with a 1.5L four-cylinder engine with a dual-motor system. It is expected that future domestic models will directly use 1.5L naturally aspirated engines, while the hybrid version may be introduced synchronously, using the same hybrid system as the upcoming Honda Ling hybrid version.

At present, there are still many netizens' opinions on the new flying degree, but as a representative model of a domestic small car, it still has its advantages. The new model has not been put on the market for a long time, and the old model is willing to be powerless. It is also one of the reasons why GAC Honda has not sold as much as Dongfeng Honda in the past year.
