Mainly because it has a civic type? R is an engine with a long history, but it uses 9AT gearbox. It has better NVH performance than Honda, but the engine noise of 1.5T model (240TURBO) is not very friendly. Who needs its distinctive selling point?
Therefore, when the 2020 model was released, I focused on the above three aspects.
Improve the lack of motivation
Friends waiting for the 10AT gearbox are expected to be disappointed again.
The 2020 Crown Road 370TURBO model has returned, all of which are adapted to the national six standards, but the parameters have not been lowered. K20C3 with 272 horsepower and 370 Nm? Type? 2.0T？ The in-line four-cylinder engine still provides much higher power level than Tiguan L, Highlander and Sharp 2.0T models, while the gearbox is still 9AT of ZF (from the previous 9HP48 to 9HP50).
Fortunately, however, Honda rewrote the driving mode of COVID-19 Road.
In comfort mode, torque is distributed to the opening of AP to improve the performance of starting and re-acceleration. In sports mode, by changing the settings of P/T system, switching the control chart of ADS adjustable suspension system /EPS electronic power steering system, and applying ASC (friends who really care about 2.0T+ 10AT powertrain can actually look at RDX, which is only 20,000 more expensive than Guandao now).
The 240TURBO model equipped with 1.5T engine introduces SPORT mode, which is controlled by CVT to provide better acceleration performance. ASC can set the "sports car sound" mode. As for the actual effect of these highly targeted improvement measures, we need actual experience before we can draw a conclusion.
Upgrade the configuration short board, which is in line with Yingying.
The five concepts have been continuing, but the concepts have played new tricks. In addition, the new car will pay more attention to configuration, with the aim of improving the sense of advanced and upgrading the short board of configuration.
In terms of configuration, the new car has added USB ports (one above the center console and two below), and the whole car is equipped with electric folding of the exterior rearview mirror (with LED turn signal). Some models have also added automatic light-sensing headlights, kick-sensing tailgates, wireless charging of mobile phones, plasma purifiers and other configurations, and the in-vehicle system has also been replaced by Honda? Connect2.0 system.
Generally speaking, COVID-19 Road has added the new configuration of Hao Ying.
In terms of driving assistance, HDC steep slope descent control system and SDA straight auxiliary system have been added, and the 2.0T ADS full-time adaptive damping system has also been upgraded.
Appearance micro-shaping
In addition to the four-way exhaust at the rear of the car, the most obvious change in the appearance of the new car is the addition of Venice blue color matching, the addition of multiple auxiliary wheel styles, and the matching of two-color body.
Comparatively speaking, several other changes can be called micro-shaping. For example, the front grille of the car has been changed from the previous honeycomb to a black three-piece design, which enhances the layering; The fog lamp area is penetrated by concave chrome trim, which has a stronger overall feeling; The turn signal is upgraded to LED flow effect.
Yi Ge concluded: Having a wheelbase that exceeds Highlander, but positioning himself on the crown road of a five-seat car, it didn't take long for him to become a monthly sales force from being questioned. Now, after the mid-term change, the model has made a fuss about luxury, which seems to create consumer demand.
In the future, this SUV that wastes the third row of seats may create new concepts. As for the seven-seat model, Honda should be more willing to let consumers focus on the Odyssey.
