1 1 first generation accord: PHEV replaces oil and electricity, can evergreen trees create more glory?

As an evergreen tree in the B-class car, every change of the Accord has attracted consumers' attention, and in the first half of this year, the vehicle will also usher in the eleventh generation. Although from the past experience, every generation of Accord will eventually succeed, this generation will be the biggest challenge that Accord has faced since it entered China 20 years ago.

As for where the challenge comes from, it's simple. At present, the China market is changing from the fuel era to the new energy era. As far as the current domestic market is concerned, domestic brands are clearly at the forefront of this rapid change, and even the traditional luxury brand "BBA" can be ridiculed by netizens as the "electrical brand" of this era. It is necessary to question how many models the Accord in the first paragraph 1 1 can keep this year.

However, I have to say that among the joint venture B-class cars, I still think the Accord is the one that keeps up with the trend.

We know that the 1 1 generation Accord was listed overseas several months ago, but there are still only two versions of overseas vehicle power: hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) and fuel. However, when the first 1 1 Accord was officially unveiled in China, we found that domestic vehicles were replaced by PHEV hybrid models, which is obviously a bold attempt to keep up with the domestic new energy trend.

In terms of pure electric cruising range, this PHEV Accord has reached 83km, which means that vehicles can enjoy policy advantages including green card and tax exemption, which seems perfect.

However, perhaps because of the transformation of the hybrid platform, you can also clearly find some compromises of this plug-in Accord, the most obvious one is the huge bulge in the trunk of the vehicle. Honda said that this is a sacrifice to ensure that the plug-in Accord still maintains a low sitting position.

But to be honest, after getting used to the spacious interior space, flat floor and trunk of domestic brand new energy vehicles, the performance of trunk like plug-in Accord is obviously unacceptable to all consumers.

As for the performance of other aspects of the plug-in Accord, I personally feel that there is no shortcoming. The application of Honda Connect4.0 locomotive system makes its cockpit intelligent performance at the leading level of joint venture. Secondly, the feeling of driving a vehicle is still dynamic, and the chassis of the new model is obviously more advanced.

However, I think the changes that most envy the old Accord owners are actually these two points. First, the whole vehicle is finally equipped with CarPlay, which definitely solves a major pain point for the owners of the medium and high accord; Second, the noise performance of vehicle tires is obviously optimized. The new generation Accord adopts the E-leaving tires from Michelin, which has a remarkable effect on optimizing the driving noise of vehicles.

If you ask me what I think of the 1 1 Accord, especially its hybrid version? As far as product strength is concerned, apart from the small defects in the trunk, I think it is one of the most balanced B-class plug-in hybrid cars at present, which deserves consumers' key consideration; On the other hand, I'm also worried about the price of the 1 1 Accord, because according to Honda's previous pricing strategy, the price of plug-in hybrid vehicles is bound to be higher than that of ordinary hybrid vehicles, so I still hope that the price of the1/accord PHEV can be more affordable, and it's better to be the same as that of the previous 10 generation.
