On December 16, Guangqi Honda's new compact sedan INTEGRA model was officially launched, and a total of 6 new cars were launched, with a price range of 129,900-166,900 yuan. The starting price of the model is consistent with the eleventh generation Civic, but the top model is 3,000 yuan more expensive.
Although the pricing of the type is close to that of the Civic, there are still some differences between the two in terms of design, configuration, and powertrain.
Top: Civic / Bottom: Grid
The first is the shape, compared to the Dongfeng Honda Eleventh Generation Civic, the type is more sporty in the shape design, the front and middle nets adopt a honeycomb design, the headlight shape is more slender, the lower encirclement is more concise, and it looks more combative.
The difference between the two tails is larger than that of the front, the type tail light group is smaller, a large piece of tail lights on the tailgate is eliminated, and the inverted L-type light bar is more sporty. In addition, the two versions with "Phantom Night" in each configuration of the model are sports suit designs, and the main difference with the ordinary version is that the tail of the car has been blackened ducktail, and the window line, exterior mirrors, door handles, and shark fin antennas of the Phantom Night Sports Suit version have adopted a blackened design.
As for the interior part, there is no difference between the type and the Civic, it is still a relatively simple and stylish style, the 9-inch suspension central control screen is the standard configuration of the whole series, and in addition to the minimum manual version using the 7-inch + pointer semi-LCD instrument, the rest of the configuration is 10.2-inch full LCD instrument.
In terms of power, the entire model is equipped with the power of 240TURBO, that is, a 1.5T high-power engine, with a maximum power of 182 horsepower and a maximum torque of 240N·m. However, the minimum model is equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission with a 6-speed manual transmission, which is a configuration that the Civic does not have, and I believe that fans who like to play with cars will definitely like this manual version. You know, the same price of 129,900, on the Civic is 129 hp 1.5T low-power engine, with A CVT gearbox, and the model can already buy high power!
As for the configuration, because the type has the advantage of late release compared to the Civic, and the popularity is not as good as the Civic, the configuration is still slightly higher than the Civic. For example, the same version of 142,900, both powertrains are 1.5T high-power + CVT gearbox, but the model is more than the Civic two USB power supplies, and the rear air conditioning outlet.
Among the top models of the two, the Civic is priced at 163,900 yuan and the model is priced at 166,900 yuan. Although the model is 3,000 yuan more expensive than the Top of the Civic, the rim has been upgraded from 17 inches to 18 inches of the Civic, and the tire specifications have been upgraded from the Civic's 215/50 R17 to 225/45 R18, and the visual effect is more sporty. In addition, the model also has more co-pilot electric seat adjustment, 12-speaker BOSE sound, automatic wiper, so the difference of 3,000 yuan is very cost-effective.
As a new car with less high visibility, the model has achieved differentiation from the Civic through the power combination of 1.5T high power + 6MT, as well as a higher configuration with a close price, and can also help it gain a foothold in the market under the powerful aura of the Civic. It is not difficult to see that Guangqi Honda is still full of sincerity for the type.
Do you think the genre will be cold because it is not as well-known as the Civic?
