Dali test drive Dongfeng Honda "Frye sauce", I was moved!

"Cangshan Mountain is misty and Erhai Lake is rippling." Dali's local customs and beautiful scenery attract a large number of domestic tourists every year. Everyone wants to calm down here, find the meaning of life journey, and have an affair with people on the road.

Some people say that Dali is not a tourist city, but a city suitable for life. What is the difference between Dali and Dongfeng Honda? The "LIFE" orientation of life coincides with mine. Before the official listing of Dongfeng Honda Life, Brother Wheel came to the ancient city of Dali and had a romantic relationship with the energetic "Frye Sauce".

Q cute face value? Dynamic fashion

Life is the first A0 compact car launched by Dongfeng Honda. For a long time, A0-class compact cars in the domestic automobile market have given people the established impression of being "cheap", but their life orientation is "boutique", which is directly reflected in their appearance. Life adopts the latest family-style design language of Dongfeng Honda, and the overall design is closer to the Japanese local model JAZZ. The ring-shaped LED lamp is matched with the internally blackened LED integrated headlight group, which is fashionable and dynamic.

LIFE's front air intake grille adopts a blackened honeycomb mesh design, and many blackened kits are added to the whole vehicle to create a very sporty visual effect. Cute and exquisite appearance with slightly fierce front face design. Do you think "the other side is cute"?

LIFE also launched two versions of the car, namely the sports version and the CROSSTAR version. The sports style of the sports version is more pure, with its own "Rally Red" color scheme; Crosstab version adds body guard, roof rack, scratch-proof wheel eyebrows, etc. The overall style is more like a crossover model. Moreover, the size of the CROSSTAR version will be larger than that of SPORT, and the addition of the magic seat will make it easier for consumers to load large items, which is more suitable for home use.

The interior does not give people the feeling of "cheap", but more "exquisite" and "practical". The two-color interior design makes drivers not feel bored on the road. The 7-inch LCD dashboard UI is simple in design and intuitive in driving parameters. The 8-inch central control panel is simple and fashionable, which not only provides radio, music, Bluetooth phone and other functions, but also supports Baidu Carlife, providing more possibilities and diversity for the "Z era".

Sitting in the driver's seat of life, Brother Wheel's first feeling is that his vision is very broad. This is because LIFE also adopts ultra-fine double A-pillar design, which maximizes the openness of forward looking, reduces the existence of blind spots and greatly improves driving safety.

What is worth mentioning is life? The sports version of the high-end model will have a central control screen upper body, while the CROSSTAR version comes standard with a central control screen; The armrest box that everyone has been expecting will also appear in life. Generally speaking, the configuration of Dongfeng Honda's life will be more kind than its peers, and the cost performance seems to be higher. Of course, the final answer will not be revealed until Life is officially listed 12+05.

Light and smooth? Excellent texture

Is the test drive that Brother Wheel and his party got this time a life? The cross talk version has an exclusive tannin blue color scheme. The test drive route starts from Dali International Hotel and turns back to the starting point after arriving at Yang li Ping Grand Theatre. On the way through expressway, urban expressway and urban road, the total distance is about 85km.

Needless to say, everyone has a good understanding of the power of life. Life is equipped with 1.5L earth dream engine with code name L 15B, with maximum power of 96kW( 13 1Ps) and peak torque of155n m, which matches CVT gearbox. Yes, it's still this "super-running power". Although the power parameters are not too eye-catching, the maximum power of 13 1 horsepower is completely output in this car weighing less than 1.2 tons, and there will still be a carefree driving experience.

1.5L The torque meter of the Earth Dream engine is excellent at low speed now, giving the impression to the brother wheel that the start is particularly brisk, the accelerator pedal is sensitive and ready to go. The biggest feature of CVT gearbox is smoothness, and Honda has added G-Design on this basis. Shift technology reduces the friction between transmission belt and gearbox flywheel, thus improving transmission efficiency and fuel economy. When stepping on the accelerator deeply, the vehicle will accelerate smoothly with the "roar" of the engine. In the middle and late period of 80- 120km/h acceleration, the disadvantage of small displacement of 1.5L engine is slightly enlarged, and the acceleration time will be slightly longer. Gu Ge and his party are ***3 people, plus some camera equipment, it will be a little difficult to overtake at high speed, which is also the natural disadvantage of naturally aspirated engine +CVT gearbox. Generally speaking, there is enough electricity, and there is not much problem at home.

When driving in urban traffic, this power system is at its best. Are all high-end models of life equipped with Honda? SESING intelligent driver assistance system, after ACC adaptive cruise is started, LIFE's acceleration braking is very linear, which is very suitable for shuttle in traffic. Unfortunately, the urban road markings in Dali are not particularly clear. Brother Wheel failed to experience Honda deeply. Inductive LKAS lane keeping system.

In terms of chassis, LIFE is equipped with a non-independent suspension of the former McPherson rear torsion beam, which will not cause much problem in the face of normal road conditions. In addition, thanks to the performance genes of Honda brand itself, the chassis texture of LIFE is very compact and excellent, and there is no strong sense of roll when cornering, which even makes the brother wheels have the impulse to drive LIFE on Dali Mountain Road.

Boutique positioning? Pay tribute to the legend

I don't know if you know it, but the car name "LIFE" is actually a tribute to the original owner of Honda MM concept, the first small car in Honda history. "Life" is directly translated into Chinese, which means "life". As a 65,438+10,000 A0 boutique compact car, Dongfeng Honda Life is not only "grounded" in price, but also "grounded" in vehicle configuration: various storage spaces, magic seats and one of the best spaces in its class. All these show that this car was born for "life".

Furthermore, the secondary marketing of the Chinese name "Frye sauce" can also attract more "Z generation" people. Nowadays, "Generation Z" has become the main consumer in the domestic automobile market. How to attract this kind of people to buy their own models has become a problem that every manufacturer must think about. Dongfeng Honda has gone astray, substituting the role of "two yuan" into the model, attracting more consumers with the image of Japanese shota "Frye sauce" and quickly shortening the distance with consumers.

With more differentiated configuration and younger marketing methods, the product competitiveness and market competitiveness of Dongfeng Honda Life cannot be underestimated. If life can give consumers a more surprising price when it is officially listed, Lu Ge believes that the vibrant "Frye sauce" will become a new "popular lover" in the A0 class small car market.

Although the test drive was only a short day, Brother Wheel still kept this memory in his heart. In sunny Dali, Gu Ge feels that shota is more like a sunny teenager who loves playing basketball and sports. It represents "Generation Z" and shows the attitude and vision of "Generation Z" towards life. Look forward to its official listing and meet it again.
