Honda will usher in an entry-level MPV, with a price of no more than 120,000 yuan, equipped with a 2.0L hybrid, which is benchmarked against domestic cars
According to Honda's current product positioning in Greater China, it is possible to introduce an entry-level MPV model in 2025, which will focus on high cost performance and is expected to be priced at no more than 120,000 yuan. And in the future, its main competitor will lock in our domestic cars. If the news is true, it will be a huge impact on our own brand, of course, from the perspective of the development of domestic cars, we will not be afraid of any opponents, so it depends on the actual performance of this car!
This entry-level MPV is basically locked in Honda's "stepwgn". In fact, overseas friends are still very familiar with this car! The shape adopts a very standard box-like design, don't look at the small size, but the space performance is still good. The design is still relatively simple, from this car can feel the style of the old-fashioned Honda model, the sense of home is still very strong, so we did not use a very exaggerated design technique in this car, but more to a simple streamlined design, from this point of view alone, the new car is still more practical. Let's look at the front face first, the mesh and its front envelope almost form a whole, the inner part of the mesh is divided into two parts, and a black decorative belt is added in the middle! The headlights use a single row of LED light sources, and the light source is relatively independent, and with sunken running lights, it will still bring a good sense of sight!
In terms of dimensions, the length, width and height of the new car are 4830mm/1750mm/1845mm, and the wheelbase has reached 2890mm. Like the front end, the entire side body has a relatively straight design. The twin electric sliding doors are retained, and the wheels are available in 16-inch and 17-inch wheels with tyre sizes of 205/60 R16 and 205/55 R17 respectively. At the rear, Honda's "Stepwgn" also adopts a conventional design, with the twin vertical taillights still looking very refined, and the rear envelope is integrated with the body. So judging from the appearance alone, it is still in line with the aesthetics of the friends at this stage!
In terms of interior, the new car should borrow elements from the Honda Odyssey, with a 10.25-inch LCD instrument cluster and an 11.4-inch center control screen, while a 15.6-inch display is also optional at the rear. In other positions, it is mostly based on practicality, and there are multiple sets of physical buttons on the center console, which is still very convenient to operate. The entire seat provides 6-seater, 7-seater and other layouts, and combined with Honda's consistent excellent layout concept, the whole space performance does not need to be considered. The rear row is also equipped with a magic seat design, and the third row can be folded flat to the bottom of the trunk to maximize space utilization.
In terms of powertrain, for example, the overseas version will be equipped with two powertrains, including a 2.0-liter four-cylinder hybrid system for the hybrid version. The gasoline version of the model is expected to be equipped with a 1.5T four-cylinder engine, but if it is really produced in China in the future, it is impossible to know whether it will continue to use the power of the overseas version! One thing is certain, that is, the price of less than 120,000 yuan is indeed attractive enough.
