AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)08/19 Report--
Feido won a good market performance when Honda entered the Chinese market with entry-level models in its early days, and it still maintains a dominant position in domestic segments even after several upgrades. However, due to the alternation of new and old models and the restrictions imposed by country 5, the sales of Feido are limited. With the arrival of the new style, the flying degree of undiminished heat has been reduced in configuration.
According to the configuration table exposed by the new generation of Guangzhou Auto Honda, the new Honda Feido has two series of six models on the market, and the new car will be officially launched on August 26. Throughout the Honda fly has achieved significant changes, but the configuration is somewhat unsatisfactory, the new car in addition to "castration" everyone expected manual gear model, the configuration of the entry-level model has also been partially reduced.
According to the configuration table, the new generation of Guangzhou Auto Honda is divided into two series: tide run Pro (SPORT) and tide run Max (CROSSTAR). Among them, the tide run Pro (SPORT) series is the standard edition, there are four models of 1.5L CVT tide start, tide enjoy, tide run and tide run Pro, with 81800 pre-sales.
Although Honda Feido, as an entry-level model under the brand, canceling more configuration is also to lower the entry price of its model in order to gain more consumers' favor, but according to the configuration of its Chaoqi version, in addition to the conventional 15-inch steel rims and halogen headlamps, the new car also removes rear wipers, suitcase panels, front cosmetic mirrors, side airbags and sound system. In the view of netizens: the configuration is appallingly low.
The version also cancels the "in-car sound system", which means that consumers who choose this configuration will not even have a chance to listen to music; and in the eyes of some netizens, the cancellation of wipers will undoubtedly bring some safety to backing up on rainy days. after all, not being able to turn on the rear wiper means you can't see the rear.
As for why manual models were cancelled, Kenshu Tanaka, chief engineer of Xinfei, said in an interview that he was sorry to cancel manual models, because the previous generation of manual models accounted for only 3% of total sales.
While it is true that the configuration of the new Feido entry-level model is very low, it may also be a Honda sales strategy, and more consumers will be more willing to choose the latter if the price is about the same between the entry-level model and the sub-low-end model. It's just that most consumers who choose Feido models consider entry-level models for budget reasons, such as just to allow more consumers to choose higher-configuration models, while the configuration of "castrated" low-equipped models, there is no doubt that it has affected the reputation of its own brand.
However, the new car is equipped with one-button start, front and front airbags, tire pressure monitoring, PM2.5 filter element, body stabilization system, traction control system, slope assistance system, driver seat 6 adjustments, steering wheel 4-way adjustment, and so on. For Feido, this entry-level model, it still has a certain configuration with the same level of advantages.
The new generation of domestic flying uses a 1.5L in-line 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine with a maximum power of 131hp and a CVT gearbox. The official acceleration time of 0-100km / h is less than or equal to 10.6s.
Although the new model Feido has not yet been put on the market, its popularity remains unabated. Limited by old models and national five models, Honda's cumulative sales in the first half of the year were only 16948. At the same time, due to the shrinking small car market, the manufacturing cost of small cars is also increasing, including Chevrolet, Mazda, Suzuki and other small car projects have withdrawn from the Chinese market. It remains to be seen whether Honda Feido, as a small car, can continue its legend in the small car market.
