The content of this issue Nian Han wants to talk to car friends about a very classic SUV, it is Honda CR-V, presumably many car friends have been driving this car until now, there is one to say, it is really good, right?!
Now, the Honda CR-V has ushered in the sixth generation of the model, which marks the 20-year history of this classic SUV in the Chinese market. In the past 20 years, the CR-V has won the trust of countless consumers with its reliable quality, excellent performance and good reputation, and has become a well-deserved benchmark model in the SUV market.
It is worth mentioning that the Honda CR-V has been evolving in the past 20 years, especially the new generation of CR-V, covering three sub-models: CR-V PET, CR-V e:HEV and CR-V e:PHEV. When they debuted, Nian Han seemed to see a force full of confidence and innovation leading the future of the compact SUV market.
Whether it is product strength, intelligent technology, or environmental protection concept, the new generation of CR-V has taken solid steps, and the three sub-models of CR-V PET, CR-V e:HEV, and CR-V e:PHEV have perfectly evolved and interpreted the true meaning of "there is an all-round CR-V".
Speaking of which, many car enthusiasts may be curious and wondering, the purpose of Honda CR-V's launch of sub-models, and what is the difference between these sub-models?
The CR-V PET is all about its unique space design and dynamic power combination. For example, the flexibility of the 5-seater or 7-seater layout fully meets the needs of different families. In addition, Honda's unique amplitude-sensing shock absorber intelligently adjusts the resistance according to the road conditions, giving passengers the most comfortable ride even in rough road conditions.
In addition to providing different seat layout options, the CR-V PET gives the driver a quieter and more comfortable driving environment with its excellent NVH performance.
The CR-V e:HEV and CR-V e:PHEV focus on hybrid technology and energy saving and emission reduction. For example, it has an advanced hybrid system and intelligent ECU management, and the fourth-generation i-MMD hybrid system brings about a petrol-electric interaction, which not only responds quickly, provides a more refreshing acceleration feeling, but also has excellent performance in fuel consumption and exhaust emissions.
Even in extreme temperature conditions such as cold winters and hot summers, the CR-V e:HEV and CR-V e:PHEV show impressive endurance and stability.
However, what impressed Nian Han the most was the introduction of the fourth-generation i-MMD technology, because it was an important leap forward in Honda's hybrid technology. At the heart of this technology is the intelligent variable speed and electric motor working together to ensure power output while maximizing energy recovery and utilization.
So what does this mean in terms of actual driving experience? It means that it has the efficiency of a hybrid drive with the smoothness and quietness close to that of a pure electric vehicle, making the hybrid model of the CR-V unique in the market.
In addition, Honda continues to innovate in battery technology, with the CR-V e:PHEV's new IPU platform architecture and adjusted fuel tank design not only optimize the location of the battery installation, but also significantly increase the battery capacity and range.
At the same time, Honda has also keenly observed and adapted to market changes, and continuously polished and optimized the drive mode through the intelligent control unit of the PCU to adapt to different car scenarios and needs.
And we all know such a truth, the reason why a model can stand out in the market and be favored by the majority of consumers is not only from the accumulation of product power, but also from the uniqueness of competing products.
On the basis of the excellent quality of the previous model, the all-new CR-V has been comprehensively upgraded again, reaching a new height in terms of product strength. Among them, the CR-V e:HEV and CR-V e:PHEV hybrid models stand out from the rest of the class with their strong performance and excellent fuel economy.
As for the upgrading of product power, it is mainly reflected in space, power and intelligence. For example, the space design is flexible and more user-friendly, which can meet the needs of different users.
For example, as mentioned above, Nianhan provides two seat layouts, 5 and 7 seats, to meet the diverse needs of different users. Among them, the CR-V PET model is specially designed for pet lovers, providing pet-exclusive space and a number of convenient functions, so that pets can also enjoy a comfortable travel experience.
In addition, the body size has been further improved, with a wheelbase of 2660mm, which provides a more spacious riding space in the car. The rear seats can be adjusted forward and backward and the backrest angle adjustment, and the space layout can be flexibly adjusted according to different needs. The trunk space is spacious and regular, and the opening height is low, which is convenient for accessing and placing items.
The all-new CR-V is still very powerful in terms of power, and the handling is very agile and comfortable. The whole system is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 193 horsepower and a peak torque of 24.8kg-m, matched with a CVT continuously variable transmission, with strong power output and fast acceleration.
At the same time, it also adopts an amplitude-sensing shock absorber, which can intelligently adjust the damping according to the road conditions to improve the handling and comfort of the vehicle, which is indeed very advantageous compared with models in the same class.
As for the hybrid model, the performance is not only powerful, but also energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. The CR-V e:HEV and CR-V e:PHEV are equipped with the fourth-generation i-MMD dual-motor hybrid system, with a combined maximum power of 215 hp and a peak torque of 315 Nm.
Thanks to this system, the two hybrid models are no less powerful than their gasoline counterparts in terms of performance, while also boasting better fuel economy.
According to official data, the CR-V e:HEV's WLTC combined fuel consumption is only 5.49L/100km, and the CR-V e:PHEV's WLTC combined fuel consumption is even lower than 1.61L/100km, which is also very advantageous in its class.
In terms of intelligent technology, the all-new CR-V already has the advantage of leading the other models in its class. The details are as follows, such as the Honda Connect 3.0 in-vehicle system and the Honda Sending 360 safety system, which not only improve the user's control experience of the vehicle, but also greatly improve driving safety.
The addition of the Predictive Eco-Friendly Assist function fully demonstrates Honda's in-depth understanding of the future driving mode and the corresponding technology investment, making the use of energy more efficient and the choice of travel greener.
Having said all this, Nian Han believes that the three models of the new generation CR-V, with their respective advantages, build Honda's pyramid in the compact SUV market.
For those consumers who pursue quality of life, pay attention to driving experience and do not forget the concept of environmental protection, "there is an all-round call CR-V" is not just an advertising slogan, it is the realization of Honda's commitment to every user, and it is the choice of every family's safety and car on the road.
Despite the increasingly fierce competition in the industry, Nian Han believes that in the years to come, the Honda CR-V will continue to lead the market trend with its all-round capabilities and become the ideal choice for more people. And the story of "there is a kind of all-round called CR-V" may have just begun!
