The overall attention of small SUVs has not been too high, but in the joint venture small SUV camp, the brother models XR-V and Binzhi from Honda have long occupied the top position in the sales list, even if the model is about to enter the end, the popularity of these two models in the market is still undiminished. After all, these two models have been able to deliver more than 10,000 sales results every month in the past year. In addition, Guangqi Honda Binzhi currently enjoys a discount of 25,000 yuan in some areas, and friends who like it will quickly take the opportunity to start it.
Although XR-V and Binzhi are currently at the end of the product, Guangqi Honda recently officially launched the Binzhi 1.5L CVT Elite Smart Edition model officially listed, priced at 135,800 yuan, and is sold in the form of a limited edition of 10,000 units nationwide. The visible model will be the last time that Guangqi Honda Binzhi will release the annual new model, which also means that the new generation of Binzhi will soon meet with us all.
The elite smart version model launched this time is actually built on the basis of the current 1.5L CVT elite version, the overall appearance and interior have basically not changed, more or for some upgrades in the configuration, after all, from the price point of view, it is 2000 yuan more than the current elite version. On the basis of the original configuration, the Elite Smart Edition model has added a multi-functional DA screen, which can support Baidu Car Life interconnection, in-vehicle HD imaging with three modes, navigation, Bluetooth phone and online music. In addition, the new car is also equipped with multi-functional steering wheel shortcuts, which are safer for drivers to operate the desired functions and see rich information through the steering wheel shortcuts during daily driving.
It is worth mentioning that the Binzhi Elite Smart Edition model is also equipped with a plasma air purifier, which can effectively block harmful substances such as PM2.5 particles for the current weather full of viruses, air pollution and haze, so that the personnel in the car can smell fresh air at all times, and truly sit comfortably and "smell safely".
Also in terms of power. The Binzhi Elite Edition is still equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine with a maximum power of 131 hp and a peak torque of 155 Nm, and the drivetrain is equipped with a CVT stepless gearbox. It can be said that this power combination is really familiar, and it is equipped on other honda brother models, and has a good reputation in terms of power, durability and economy.
When is the new generation of Binzhi coming?
Since the official debut of the new generation of Binzhi at the beginning of last year, it has attracted everyone's expectations for it. At present, there is no news that the new generation of Binzhi will be introduced into localization at any time, but the introduction is certain, but they still need to find the best time. In addition, Dongfeng Honda will soon officially launch a pure electric model e: NS1, if you look at its pictures, it is not difficult to find that this model is actually similar to the new generation of Binzhi released overseas, perhaps the new generation of Binzhi will first meet our domestic consumers as pure electricity.
Overseas version of the new generation of Binzhi, the overall design can be said to be very different from the current model, the new car absorbs Honda's latest family design, tough shape looks very burly, large area of hexagonal net and two sides of the narrow headlights, not only has a strong sense of horizontal vision, but also looks very sharp. The tail design adopts the most popular through-through design at present, and the overall appearance is distinct, and there is even a lot of high-grade sense.
Of course, in order to meet the aesthetic needs of different consumers, the new generation of Binzhi also provides two kinds of front and rear bumper shapes, with sports and luxury two kinds of shapes for choice, but in the future to introduce domestic, may be split in Guangqi Honda and Dongfeng Honda production, respectively, to highlight the difference between the two vehicles, of course, do not rule out the direct introduction of production without distinction.
In terms of interior, the new generation of Binzhi is still based on a simple and practical design style, but with the combination of a full LCD dashboard and a floating central control screen, the sense of technology of the whole vehicle is still improved a lot. At the same time, the new car is also equipped with the latest car machine system, which can support mobile phone interconnection functions such as Apple Car Play and Android Auto. It is worth mentioning that the magic seat that everyone is familiar with is still equipped in the new generation of Binzhi, and I believe it will be retained when it is introduced into domestic production.
As for power, the overseas version of the new generation of Binzhi will continue to provide 1.5L naturally aspirated engine and 1.5L naturally aspirated + motor composed of hybrid system for consumers to choose. After the specific follow-up introduction of domestic production, what kind of power the new generation of Binzhi will carry has not yet been officially disclosed.
Summary: Perhaps the current XR-V and Binzhi still have vitality, so Honda is not eager to introduce a new generation of Binzhi, of course, this is also the author's guess. However, with the continuous upgrading and iteration of competitors, for Honda, it is also necessary to step up the pace of introducing a new generation of Binzhi, let's wait and see. In addition, taking advantage of the current offers, the current XR-V and Binzhi may be the best opportunities to start at present.
