When choosing a joint venture compact SUV, honda's CR-V could not be avoided anyway. In the domestic market, Honda has the title of "buying an engine to deliver a car" and "space magician", and through the sales volume of the market, we can also see the status of Honda CR-V in the hearts of Chinese consumers. In terms of price, the new car guide price is 169,800-27.68 million yuan, providing pure gasoline version and oil-electric hybrid version. Is the Honda CR-V worth starting with? What are the advantages and disadvantages that consumers need to pay attention to? Let's take the 2021 240TURBO CVT two-wheel drive urban version with a guidance price of 195,800 as an example to see how the strength of this car is.
First of all, in the design of the appearance, Chinese consumers have always paid attention to the appearance and aura of the car, perhaps the design style used by Honda CR-V is not young and sporty enough, but the front face of the whole car is more solid and thick, more in line with the aesthetics of middle-aged consumers. The headlights have a strong sense of design, equipped with a full LED light source, while the light cavity adopts a large number of line segmentation, while the turn signal has the effect of dynamic flowing water, which is more technological than the old model.
Coming to the side of the body, the Honda CR-V positioned the compact SUV with a length, width and height of 4621/1855/1679mm and a wheelbase length of 2661mm. Compared with competitors of the same level, the exterior size of the Honda CR-V has certain advantages, which is closer to the level of mid-size cars. Straight lines on the sides reduce the greasy feel of the exterior, and with 235/65 R17-gauge tires, there is a more coordinated body proportion. The tail shape also gives people a more solid and thick feeling, the C-shaped taillights are quite three-dimensional, and the middle is connected by thick chrome trim strips to further increase the visual center of gravity.
Compared with the appearance, the interior of the Honda CR-V is relatively simple and intuitive, but combined with the market pricing of the product, even if the door armrests, seats, and steering wheel are wrapped in leather, it is difficult to cover up the plastic feeling of the interior; in short, the interior lacks a certain sense of high-grade. The dashboard is a full LCD structure, the display effect is more intuitive and clear; the middle multimedia screen size is only 7 inches, to be honest, this size is not competitive in the same level of market, the equipped car system has fewer functions, and does not support any mobile phone interconnection, which is worth improving later.
The rear seating space is enough to surprise users, first of all, my height is 1.77 meters, I weigh 74 kilograms, which belongs to the fat figure. Adjust the front driver's seat to suit my sitting position, I sit in the back row is more than two fists of leg space, adjust the sitting posture can also the legs of the Erlang; more satisfactory is the panoramic sunroof is the standard configuration of the whole series, not only can increase the lighting in the car, but also make the passenger sitting in the back seat more spacious view. In addition, the nearly flat floor also fully guarantees the passenger sitting in the middle, and after the rear seat ratio is lowered, it can form a huge plane with the trunk, which can be used as a bed when traveling outdoors.
In terms of power, the maximum power of this 1.5T engine is 142 kW (193Ps), the maximum torque is 243 N·m, and it matches the CVT continuously variable transmission. In fact, through this set of power units, you can see the main tone of the Honda CR-V, driving up the engine power output is strong, the gearbox takes into account the good enough smoothness, which also makes the NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption of 6.4L/100km, the cost of the car is relatively low. The front and rear suspension are independent structures, the overall adjustment is also more inclined to comfort, the chassis has a good filter performance, but the impact of comfort is more from the noise, high-speed driving tire noise, wind noise are more obvious.
Summary: Honda CR-V sales in the domestic market are obvious to all, and even surpass the Haval H6 in terms of sales. Is it suitable for home use? In terms of ride space, Honda can really make the best use of space, without any excess or waste, making inconspicuous parts into storage compartments, and the rear space is comparable to a medium-sized SUV. The power performance of the 1.5T engine is naturally better than that of the same class equipped with 2.0L self-priming models, the gearbox takes into account good rideability, and the cost of the car is reduced, which is very suitable as a family car.
