AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)12/29 Report--

According to the official release, the order of the model has exceeded 10,000 in two weeks. Although the order does not represent the final sales performance, it is sufficient to prove its popularity.

On December 16, Guangzhou Auto Honda officially launched six new models with a price range of 12.99 yuan to 166900 yuan, all equipped with a high-power 1.5T four-cylinder turbocharged engine and a manual version for consumers to choose from.

Although the style and Civic are sister models to each other, in contrast, the style puts more emphasis on sports in appearance, its front face is flattened, the narrow LED headlight group is connected to the central grille, the interior of the intake grille is modeled with a large hole grid, and the front enclosure is surrounded by black horizontal strips, with the raised ribs on the engine front hatch cover, which looks more athletic. The rear part of the car, the model is also redesigned, the double "L" taillight group with the upper ducktail shape, which is the biggest difference with the Dongben Civic. In addition, in order to highlight the sports characteristics, the new car will provide unique emerald blue and hot yellow paint.

In terms of interior decoration, the interior layout of the style is consistent with the new Civic, including three-frame steering wheel, through air conditioning outlet, suspended central control screen and all-digital dashboard, which can be seen in the new Civic. However, the configuration of the model is slightly higher, with a 12-speaker BOSE sound system and NFC card keys, which is Honda's first model with BOSE audio in China.

In terms of power, the model is equipped with a 1.5T four-cylinder turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 182hp and a maximum torque of 240N ·m. The transmission system matches the CVT gearbox and the six-speed manual self-contained gearbox.

As we all know, the Civic is a best-selling model owned by Dongfeng Honda, with cumulative sales of 243312 vehicles in 2020, second only to Xuanyi, Lang Yi, Carola, Bora, Suiteng and Yinglong, ranking seventh on the car list, with monthly sales of more than 20, 000 vehicles. After entering 2021, due to the impact of chip shortage, Civic's sales fluctuated greatly, with cumulative sales of 140229 vehicles from January to November, with an average monthly sales of more than 10,000 vehicles, falling out of the top 15 of the car list and a large decline compared with 2020.

As a sister model of Civic, the most direct competitor of Civic is Civic. From the point of view of the price, the Civic with 1.5T high-power engine costs 14.29-163900 yuan, while the sister model with 1.5T high-power engine costs 12.99-166900 yuan, which seems to be more competitive in price. This may be the reason why consumers are more willing to choose styles.

From the perspective of the Civic and the styling model, the Civic is a "veteran" who has fought in the domestic market for many years, while the styling is a newly born "toddler." in the short term, it is expected that the Civic received a large number of orders. after all, the price is more advantageous, appearance is also more in line with the aesthetic of young consumers, whether the style can be ahead of the Civic still needs a long time to verify.
