People have twelve constellations, different constellations have different personalities, if the car also has constellations, how will it correspond one by one? A few days ago, the reporter of China Economic Network tested the "enthusiastic" Guangqi Honda style, young and passionate design, easy to use experience, and the positive sunshine of Aries can be described as coinciding, "Aries in the car industry" is deserved.
Speaking of style, it is derived from the "famous" Honda "front-driving performance king" INTEGRA, INTEGRA Type-R has made countless JDMer crazy. Today, the type is "reappearing" under the name of INTEGRA, which makes consumers look forward to it.
In terms of appearance, although there is no type-R blessing, the "ordinary version" model still has a design style that makes young consumers happy. In particular, the "jumping off" emerald blue and hot yellow body color, as well as the more cool night version of the model, are more eye-catching; Unfortunately, the model that the reporter drove this time is only the most "ordinary" white ordinary model, but this still can't hide its youthful attributes in design.
Overall, the styling inherits many of the design elements of the "Big Brother" Accord, but it shows a more dynamic effect on the more compact body. From the front of the car, there is no aesthetically fatigued "big mouth" heat dissipation grille, but instead a more designed layered grille + integrated three-pupil LED headlights, plus professional diversion holes on both sides, look simple and sharp, and full of aggression.
Turning to the side, the slender, low-profile front, compact rear, and the overall low-center of gravity of the body together create a very athletic posture; The 18-inch cutting hub, the "convex sharp angle" at the end of the C-pillar that is the same as the Accord, and the playful "ducktail" at the rear of the car highlight the "type" and "grid" of the type in the details.
The rear of the car is also frequently highlighted. It is still not complicated lines, but through the eye-catching blade LED taillights, bilateral two-out exhaust pipes, and tail diffusers and other local designs, highlight the full sports attributes.
Underneath the passionate appearance, there is a delicate interior that is even more memorable to reporters. Different from the current clone-like large screen, or the "Kill Matt" interior design that simply pieces together popular elements, the style has a personality that does not bow to "cookie-cutter". The honeycomb mesh alloy trim through the center console has an outstanding design sense and visual effect, which has become the biggest highlight of the interior; The air conditioner outlet adjustment knob that dots it is also as delicate as a craft, which makes the reporter fall in love with it.
Not only that, but the leather seats with excellent riding sense, the 9-inch floating touch interconnection central control screen with easy operation, the BOSE sound system with 12 speakers, wireless charging and other technologies and comfort configurations are not "flower racks". But the fly in the ointment is that the front seat of the type not only does not have a ventilation function, but even the practical heating function is also "absent", which makes the reporter quite puzzled.
Compared with the fashionable appearance, the driving control comparable to that of a sports car is the killer of INTEGRA's fame; For the model, of course, it does not need to carry the extreme performance experience of the Type-R model, after all, it is its responsibility to gain the favor of the mainstream home market. However, through test driving, the quite compact and quality driving experience still makes the type enough to become an "athlete" in the family car.
The model is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged VTEC engine, 134 kW maximum power, 240 Nm peak torque data, even comparable to many 2.0T engines. However, in actual driving, the type does not show too "grumpy" side, stepping on the accelerator pedal, is a calm and unhurried power output, with a tight and not light steering feel, the driving experience is positive and relaxed. What is even more heartwarming to the reporter is that when the manual transmission has almost disappeared in the family car market, the model also "thoughtfully" launched the MT version of the model, bringing a rare choice to the "car player".
