Judging from the sales data, the opening of the three policies has not made the MPV market have a significant improvement. However, from the perspective of market segmentation data, the sales volume of new energy MPVs has increased significantly year-on-year, and medium and large MPVs are more favored by consumers. At the same time, the demand for MPV in first-tier cities has risen significantly. Various phenomena show that although the three-child policy has not had an obvious role in promoting the MPV market, it is likely to gradually change the consumption structure of the MPV market, from the past commercial to household-oriented.
It is worth noting that among the top ten MPV models in the month, independent brand models occupy a larger share, which will naturally pose a greater threat to joint venture brands. Perhaps it is based on the above changes and influences that the new Alexand has come, with more than 40 configuration upgrades, as well as the whole series of light mixes!
In terms of appearance, the new Alexand has become more beautiful, but at the same time, the business atmosphere is still strong, which may be a little out of place for the current situation of more emphasis on household use. Under this premise, although the front face has been "blackened", it is not so much that the sense of movement has become stronger, but rather that the whole vehicle looks more solemn.
In terms of appearance, the new Alexand has several designs and configurations worth mentioning. One is the induction door opening, although this door opening and closing method is not direct and fast, but it is really interesting, and it can avoid contact with cold handlebars in winter. The second is the low-threshold design of the vehicle, which makes Alexandry friendly to the elderly and children at home to get on and off the bus. The third is that the new car is equipped with a tailgate design with induction opening, and supports the opening angle setting, so that the performance of the vehicle is more in line with the market demand.
The body length, width and height of the new model are 4951 * 1842 * 1711mm, the wheelbase is 2900mm, completely maintained on the level of the current model, before seeing the comparison between Ai Lishen and other competitors of the same level, you know that its external size is actually not dominant, but after honda designers' rich experience in space design, its actual internal space performance is not inferior to the opponent.
Inside, the new Alexand has made adjustments to the engine and color matching, and the addition of the new color scheme makes it more glamorous and beautiful. In terms of vehicles, the new car is equipped with a new HONDA CONNECT 3.0 intelligent guide interconnection system to support entertainment, car-machine interconnection, navigation, WIFI hotspots, voice recognition and other functions, which are much more advanced than the previous car machines, and functions such as remote control of mobile phones, and operations such as starting air conditioning in advance before daily departure are of great practical significance. At the same time, in terms of safety configuration, the new car continues to be equipped with Honda SENSING safety super sense system to protect the safety of drivers and occupants in an all-round way.
In terms of spatial layout, the new car still adopts a 2+2+3 layout. The front row has eliminated the central passage, and the second row of independent seats supports adjustment functions such as front and rear, left and right, and leg rest lifting, and maintains a high level of comfort. The third row of the new car still has a "fishing stool" mode, whether it is really fishing or resting outdoors, this function is still quite good. It is worth mentioning that the new car is also equipped with a welfare seat similar to gl8, which is convenient for the elderly and the disabled to get on and off the bus. In terms of power, the new car continues to be equipped with a third-generation i-MMD dual-motor hybrid system composed of a 2.0L engine + front and rear dual motors, with a combined maximum power of 242 kW and a peak torque of 490N·m, matching the E-CVT stepless gearbox. In terms of power, it can only be said to be decent, but for the Alexand model, practicality may be the most attractive place. Therefore, in terms of model recommendation, we will also make recommendations around this core.
The new Alexand has launched a total of 4 models, and personally, it will be more recommended for low- and medium-sized models, that is, hybrid classic version and hybrid comfort version model, for the following reasons: First of all, the hybrid classic version of the model. As an entry-level model, this version of the model is less expensive, and the configuration level has reached the demand range of most human vehicles on the market, which is a normal level of sufficiency. Its shortcomings are more reflected in the use of materials in the details and in the multimedia-related multimedia configuration. The rest, such as double-sided sliding doors and keyless entry for the whole car, are readily available, and the price-performance ratio is really high under the excellent space performance and fuel economy of The Alexand.
Secondly, it is the most recommended hybrid comfort version. In terms of price, the price of this version of the model is moderate, and the price-performance ratio is not inferior to the rest of the joint venture brand MPV at the same level and price. And compared with the classic version of the model, although the price of this version increased by 19,000 yuan, but the auxiliary configuration and multimedia configuration has made great progress, including adaptive cruise, lane keeping and other functions are equipped. In addition, upgrades such as electric trunks, OTA upgrades and interior materials also make the 19,000 yuan difference very worthwhile.
As for the remaining two medium and high-end models, I personally believe that unless the budget is sufficient and there is a demand for some configurations, it is naturally possible if you like the new Alexand to generate electricity for love. The two versions are mainly supplemented with seat configurations and technology configurations of vehicles. It should be noted that the comfort of the seat of Alexand itself is actually quite good, and the lifting part is not so obvious, so it needs to be seen whether it is a matter of opinion. Then there are the added technology configurations such as automatic parking, panoramic images and seat memory, which are not used frequently in daily cars, so you may wish to consider your own needs before buying.
From a product point of view, the new Alexand is still a product with a comprehensive performance and excellent performance in fuel economy and space. However, from the perspective of the market, the head is firmly locked by the business series MPV led by GL8, and it is covered by a series of self-owned brand new energy MPV models that are mainly in the home market and have more advantages in price. Overall, the launch of the new Alexand may not allow it to break through the dilemma in front of it, but it is enough to let it continue to stock in this competitive and cruel market.
