As a popular player in the domestic compact family car market, the listing of the 11th generation Honda Civic has aroused the attention of many riders, people lament the progress of the car in terms of comfort and configuration, but also because of the absence of manual transmission and regret, but at the end of last year, the Civic sister model Honda model made up for the regrets brought to us by the Civic. Today, Uncle Che found a rival of the same level, Toyota Raling, to compare it with it to see which of the two is stronger.
The 2022 Honda model was launched in November 2021, and the new car has a total of 6 configurations in the whole series, and the price range is 129,900 to 166,900 yuan. The 2022 Toyota Ralink also completed the product update in December last year, and the price range of the new car was 11.38 to 152,800 yuan. Next, Uncle Che will focus on the selection of the 2022 Honda Lattice Technology Edition with a guidance price of 142,900 yuan and the 2022 Toyota Ralink 185T Technology Edition with a guidance price of 139,800 yuan for comparison, the price of both is close and both are technology versions, which can be described as a needle tip to Mai Mang.
Exterior design
The Honda style is not much different from the Honda Civic in the general outline of the exterior design, the whole vehicle is a sports style design language, and like the Civic, it adopts a black design to set off the sense of sport. Specifically, the grille size of the front face of the new car is larger than that of the 11th generation Honda Civic, and the interior uses a honeycomb shape with bright black paint, and the shape of the front surrounding the left and right sides is also very sharp, looking very personal. Because of the grille shape, the car has a light group design similar to the corner of the eye, the overall still shows a flat style, the internal area of the light cavity is clearly divided, and the eyes after lighting are quite sharp.
The new Toyota Ralink has only undergone a small modification, so the appearance of the whole car has not been modified in a large action, the front face of the new car is equipped with a trapezoidal large-mouth type middle net, the internal grille is blackened, and chrome elements are used as decorations around the perimeter. The front light group on the left and right sides is like a sharp blade, and the LED light source is used in terms of lighting, which has more LED front fog lights than the Honda type, but the steering auxiliary lights and the headlights are delayed.
In terms of body size, the specific length, width and height of the model are 4689×1802×1415 mm, and the wheelbase is 2735 mm. The body side design of the new car is very similar to that of the Honda Civic, and the double waist line with sharp lines makes the car present a strong sports car style, while the car uses bright black livery in the door handles, rearview mirrors, B-pillars and C-pillars, etc., and the athletic characteristics are extremely obvious.
The specific length, width and height of Leiling are 4640×1780×1455 mm, and the wheelbase is 2700mm, which is slightly behind in terms of body length and width and wheelbase level. The body side design of the new car is very simple, the body proportions look very compact and dynamic, and the details are more exquisite.
The rear part of the model is equipped with sharp L-shaped taillights, which is also an important symbol of the car's night recognition on the road in the future, after the optional sports kit, the trunk cover of the new car will have an extra black ducktail, with the paint contrast out of the car to emphasize the sense of sport. In addition, the rear surround of the new car is painted in bright black, and has a diffuser shape, with a double exhaust air on both sides, showing a sense of sportiness that is more intense than the Honda Civic.
Compared with the sports exaggerated front face design, toyota Ralink's tail design is relatively convergent a lot, and although the shape of the rounded tail light group is slightly mediocre, the black trim used in the middle for connecting and the black trim around the light group can still make people feel some personalized elements.
Interior design
The shape of the entire central control T-shaped area in the lattice car is not very different from the new Civic that we are familiar with, which is actually a good thing, because the interior of the Honda Civic is already extremely beautiful. It is worth noting that some color matching models also use the same color stroke as the body at the air conditioner outlet, making the overall appearance and interior look younger. The new car is equipped with a 9-inch touch LCD screen on the console, which supports satellite navigation, navigation road condition information display, road call rescue, Bluetooth car phone, mobile phone interconnection mapping, voice recognition control, Internet of Vehicles, OTA upgrade, etc.
Leiling has not changed in the interior design, the new car provides all black and black and gray two-color with two kinds of interior color schemes, the car uncle personally recommends the design of black and gray two-color collocation, which helps to enhance the atmosphere inside the cockpit, and the all-black interior is too deep. The model is wrapped in a large area of soft material above the center console and on the inside of the door panel, and the details match the piano paint panel and silver trim as embellishments, enhancing the layering and texture of the interior design. The center console is equipped with a 12.1-inch suspension touch LCD screen, which lacks OTA upgrades compared to the Honda model in terms of functions.
The seats in the lattice car are wrapped in fabric fabric and only manual adjustment is supported in terms of functionality. The front seat shape of the new car is not much different from the Honda Civic, and while retaining certain sports functions and design, the overall emphasis is placed on the comfort of the occupants, the seat thickness is appropriate, the interior padding is soft, and there is a certain support effect for the waist and shoulders.
The seats in the Leiling car are wrapped in imitation leather fabric, and only manual adjustment is supported in terms of function. The front seat shape of the new car mainly takes the sports route, the details are richer, and the seat cushion length is excellent, which is enough for the leg support of the front passenger.
The space of the rear seats in the lattice car is more generous, the angle between the rear backrest and the seat cushion is appropriate, it is easy for passengers to find a more suitable sitting position, the filling of the middle seat in the rear row is also softer, but the center of the platform is raised, and the middle passenger can only put his feet on both sides of the platform, which affects the comfort of the ride.
The rear seat cushions of Leiling's new car are thicker than the front row, and the seats on both sides have a certain degree of invertedness, which is a good sense of wrapping, but the length of the seat cushions is shorter, and the leg support for passengers is not so in place.
dynamical system
The model is powered by a 1.5T turbocharged engine with a maximum output of 182 hp and a peak torque of 240 Nm. In terms of drivetrain, it is matched by the CVT stepless gearbox.
In terms of power, Leiling is equipped with a 1.2T turbocharged engine, with a maximum output of 116 horsepower and a peak torque of 185 Nm, which is obviously lagging behind in performance. In terms of drivetrain, the engine is matched by a simulated 10-speed CVT continuously variable transmission.
Uncle Che summed up
As a newcomer to the domestic compact family car market, Honda Style inherits the excellent design of civic, is more sporty in detail, and also provides manual entry-level models, making up for the regrets of many consumers. Through the analysis of the above aspects, we can also see that in the case of the same price point, the model has more excellent power performance performance, larger external dimensions, more generous rear seating space and more comprehensive functional configuration, the overall product strength and cost performance are more prominent, so in this round of showdown, the car uncle is more recommended is the new man in the car market - Honda type.
