AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)11/13 Report--

Less than four months after Dongfeng Honda officially listed the hatchback version of the Civic, the all-new Honda Civic will be released again. Honda officially announced that the new-generation Civic hatchback will be officially launched at 9: 00 a. M. Beijing time on November 18, and more trailer pictures have been released for the new car.

As a global model, the Honda Civic is very popular in both North America and Asia. since Dongfeng Honda officially introduced the 10th generation Civic in 2016, it has captured the favor of many young consumers and once again pushed up the trend of the model, keeping its sales in China at more than 20,000.

As a result of the continuous upsurge of Civic, Honda introduced the hatchback version of Civic to the market at the end of July this year. Unexpectedly, Honda will launch a completely new Civic model in less than half a year, which means that domestic models will gradually enter the replacement period.

Although the patent map for the new Honda Civic hatchback or hatchback has previously been exposed, according to Honda's official announcement, the first model will be a hatchback version, with a large number of trailer pictures.

According to the official notice chart, the appearance of the new car is closer to the Accord, and the new LED headlights are integrated with the forward air grille to form an integrated design. At the same time, the front enclosure of the hatchback version also uses a three-part design, which is more athletic.

From the side, the new car is slimmer than the cash. In the rear part, a small spoiler extends from the rear end of the new car, which does not adopt the integrated design of the roof and back, but returns to the style of the traditional hatchback. And the taillight part cancels the cash style of the rotary dart taillight, using the "7" shape of the LED light belt, from the identification point of view is not as high as the cash.

There is no more information about the interior, but the patent map previously exposed shows that the new car has also undergone great changes, and the new Civic will use a "suspended" large-size central control screen, which is further in line with the current Honda Accord central control screen layout.

On the powertrain, in addition to the traditional fuel version, Honda's latest e:HEV hybrid system will also appear in the new car. At the same time, the possibility of new cars being introduced in the future as well as pure electric models cannot be ruled out.

Combining the previous appearance patent map and this preview map, it is not difficult to see that the appearance of the new generation of Civic has become more regular than the young movement of cash, and I do not know whether such a design can once again arouse the favor of young domestic consumers.

As Honda and Toyota brands continue to launch more models in China in recent years, and accelerate the upgrading of products, it can be seen that the Chinese market has become an important strategic market for these two car companies. According to Honda's sales target of 1.55 million vehicles in China this year, it has completed more than 80%, which is a considerable performance for Honda, which has had a big impact on the epidemic. In order to gradually release the potential energy of the new model market and the continuous introduction of new models, Honda's sales in China are also expected to further increase.

According to data, Honda's terminal sales in China were 180655 in October 2020, up 22.3% from a year earlier, setting an all-time high for four consecutive months. Honda's cumulative sales in China from January to October 2020 were 1246816, still down slightly from a year earlier.
