A quick review of the highlights of the new generation Haoying

New dynamic appearance design

The appearance of the new generation Haoying has changed a lot. The entire front face has been changed to a new design. The new car has canceled the common large-area chrome-plated decorative strips and turned it into a semi-enclosed style. The upper part seems to be through-type daytime running lights. The headlights do not have much fancy. The top and the through-type daytime running lights are integrated with the lower edge of the hood, becoming very regular. The huge Honda LOGO occupies the blank space in the middle of the front face, and the polygonal air intake grille is moved to the bottom. In this way, the entire visual center of gravity is lowered, making it look more dynamic.

The new generation of Haoying provides six body colors: Mist Forest, Extreme Night Silver, Starry Sky Blue, Venice Blue, Speed ​​Crimson, and Star and Moon White. Among them, Mist Forest and Venice Blue are very special colors. The interior is available in two colors: all black and red and black. In addition, the high and low configurations also use two different styles of aluminum alloy rims, 19-inch and 18-inch respectively.

New interior style, improved texture/increased configurations

The interior is a completely new design style. This design has been quite topical since the debut of Civic last year. Anyway, I personally like it very much. The simple design has a sense of luxury. In addition, the new generation of Haoying has also been greatly improved in terms of vehicle system and active and passive safety, and the new generation also provides a seven-seat version.

The previous generation of Haoying's car-machine system is still relatively old, outdated UI, with basic functions, but the new generation of intelligent guidance interconnection system is different. Its functions are more complete, the operation is smoother, and it is embedded with Tmall Elf , thus realizing many online functions, and the practicality of the entire car-machine system is greatly improved.

In terms of safety configuration, the active safety system on the new generation Haoying has been upgraded from HondaSENSING to HondaSENSING 360. The main improvements are:

1, the detection angle of the forward-facing high-definition camera is increased from 50° to 90°, the detection range of the radar is expanded from 50° to 120°, and the number of millimeter wave radar is increased from the original 1 to 5, and the detection angle is increased from the forward 50° to 360°.

2, RDM lane departure suppression system, the sensing range is expanded to road shoulders and stones, effectively avoiding wheel hub collisions.

3. Added ALCA lane changing smart driving function, which can realize automatic lane changing when the lights are turned on.

4. Add the FCTW crossing prediction function to effectively avoid intersection collision accidents.

5. Add emergency braking and false start suppression functions to effectively reduce the probability of accidents caused by "accelerator acting as brake".

may be stimulated by the ultra-high airbag coverage of Toyota TNGA architecture models. The new generation model, Haoying and other models are also very low-cost in terms of passive safety. The entire series comes standard with 10 airbags, of which in addition to the regular 6, there are also knee airbags for the front passenger and driver, and two rear side airbags that are equipped on very few models. I really have to give Honda a thumbs up in this regard.

The new generation Haoying has an increase of 82mm in length and a 40mm increase in wheelbase, which further improves the already good seating space. Coupled with Honda's "MM" concept, there is no need to worry about the interior space performance. Experiencers with a height of 188cm can get comfortable sitting postures in the first two rows. In addition, the new generation of Haoying provides a seven-seat version. Although the five-seat version does not have the third row of seats, for an SUV of this size, the third row can usually only be used for emergency seating.

Driving control: SFRD variable suspension takes into account control and comfort

In terms of power, the new generation Haoying gasoline version is still equipped with the 1.5T turbocharged engine . The maximum power and peak torque have not changed, but the peak torque range has been advanced by 200 rpm. In addition, the new generation model also adds the SFRD amplitude response damping system, which can better balance control and comfort.

Editor’s Comments

Overall, this upgrade of Haoying has significantly improved its product capabilities. The new style of interior and exterior design, the new HondaCONNECT 3.0 intelligent guidance interconnection system, and the addition of more practical configurations and active and passive safety configurations are all very exciting. In addition, the new generation model also provides new body colors and a seven-seat version. Although there is no change in power, there is no problem with the 1.5T+CVT power combination. There will definitely be an e:HEV hybrid version equipped with the new fourth-generation i-MMD system in the future. In short, the new generation Haoying will still be a model worth buying.
