The mid-term revamped XR-V model was launched in July, and the competitiveness of the product was enhanced through styling adjustment, configuration upgrade and engine replacement, with a terminal of 14460 vehicles. It is worth mentioning that Dongfeng Honda's Ericsson hybrid version, even if listed soon, but still has a momentum of growth.

From July to early August this year, there were a large number of cases of stall doors in Guangzhou Automobile Honda Accord, which eventually forced Honda to recall. However, some consumers reported that the Honda recall program can not completely solve the problem, high-speed stall still exists. And not alone, there are media after the Accord recall of the car market also encountered stall, and there is a serious gearbox oil leakage. Even so, Honda Accord again exceeded 20,000 units in September and is expected to return to the top of the midsize car sales list.

With the support of the two new models, Honda is expected to continue to maintain solid sales performance in October.

It is worth noting that so far, Guangzhou Auto Honda has 7 million users in China. Among the 7 million sales, all the best-selling models of GAC-Honda contributed to the growth of sales, among which the hybrid model performed better.

At present, many car companies have achieved year-on-year growth in September this year, perhaps confirming the law of "Golden Nine and Silver Ten". As a perennial best-selling Japanese brand, it can achieve sales growth not only in a homeopathic or countercurrent environment, but also in Honda's frequently exposed models that have repeatedly exposed problems. It has to be said that Accord is still fragrant even if recalled.
