202 1 Honda Accord Appears: The milky white Xiao Sheng turns into a handsome big brother with more functions.

The life cycle of the 10th generation Accord has lasted for more than three years. Faced with the continuous upgrading of competing products such as Camry and Teana, Honda just released a limited edition of Starry Sky at the Beijing Auto Show. The real mid-term change has not arrived, which will inevitably reduce the competitiveness of a high-profile sports mid-size car. However, the new 202 1 Accord will be launched overseas on June 5438+1October 65438+March, and the new car has been optimized and upgraded in terms of interior and exterior decoration and functions. It is estimated that the new Accord made in China is not far from us.

The appearance change of 202 1 Accord is still obvious. The most special front face is the exaggerated air intake grille, and the visual effect is irresistible. The contours on both sides skillfully hold up the headlights.

From the internal light source, upgrading the old halogen high beam to LED is also a reasonable change, and the LED daytime running lights are sharper and more exquisite. Honda also optimized the headlights, improving the irradiation distance and range of high beam and low beam.

Another change comes from the shape of the front fog lamp. The slender appearance of the old model has been changed into a rounded style, which has an effect of returning to nature. This traditional style is actually more suitable for sports cars.

The change in the tail is reflected in the addition of a spoiler at the top of the trunk, while the taillight group tries to continue the old style. The lines on the side of the car body are obviously much sharper, extending backward from the hood to the taillight group and backward from the front wheel to the rear wheel. The concave-convex design highlights the Accord's stronger sense of muscle.

The huge air intake grille on the front face has a strong sense of layering, and the Honda logo has a semi-suspended visual effect. We noticed that there is a square at the bottom, which is a radar module, which can help realize the auxiliary driving functions such as adaptive cruise, the spoilers on both sides are more prominent, and the fog light area is more stereoscopic.

Compared with the old model, the new Accord adds chrome trim on the side roof, and the size of the five-spoke sports hub is obviously increased. The overseas version is 19 inch, which makes the Accord look particularly fierce, but the ultra-low flat tire is not suitable for driving in complex road conditions. I don't know if this configuration will be provided after domestic production.

After the above changes on the tail, we found that two silver triangular decorative pieces were added at the bottom, and there were no exhaust pipes symbolizing sports identity.

In terms of interior, the new Accord basically retains the style of the old models, and the 8-inch touch screen will become standard. The old model is equipped with a 7-inch touch screen, and its functions will include GPS navigation, road information display, mobile phone support Carplay and AAndroid Auto, car networking and OTA upgrade.

Color instrument panel is also an essential configuration, and the size is expected to continue to adopt the 7-inch specification, while the layout and color of the display screen are adjusted.

The new protocol adjusts the position of individual functions. For example, the USB interface in the front row has been moved to a hidden position under the air conditioning control area, and at least two USB interfaces will be provided in the back row for the convenience of passengers.

In terms of seats, the whole system comes standard with imitation leather seats, driver's seat 12-way electric adjustment and front seat heating. According to the configuration of the domestic version, the new model will have convenient functions such as electric adjustment of the main and co-pilot seats, heating, ventilation, and adjustable buttons in the back row of the co-pilot. The new Accord will come standard with a rear reminder function, which is mainly used to prevent drivers from leaving children or pets in the car and causing danger.

In terms of power, the overseas version continues the fuel version combination of 1.5T+CVT and 2.0T+ 10AT. The former outputs143kw (192ps)/260nm, while the latter outputs 256Ps/370Nm. However, there is a high probability that the 2.0T powertrain will not enter the domestic market. In addition, it is also mixed.

To sum up, the starting price of the overseas version of 202 1 Accord is $24,770, which is about RMB167,000. However, their entry-level version is quite rich in configuration, and the performance does not distinguish between high and low power. I don't know if it will be 65,438+000% after domestic production, but I'm afraid it will still be the dominant sports mid-level car in terms of the appearance and function upgrade of the new Accord.
