So does Guangqi Honda's fourth-generation Honda Fit inherit the previous advantages well? What brand-new eye-catching design is there under its ignorant and lovely appearance? Please see our detailed experience video about the fourth generation Fit of Guangqi Honda.
Classic inheritance
Red is Max (Cross) series, and white is Pro(SPORT) series.
This time, the protagonists are two versions of the fourth generation Fit, namely the Pro(SPORT) series with the code GR9 and the Max(CROSSTAR) series with the code GS 1 The official guide price is 73,800 yuan-10.28 million yuan.
This GR9 is closer to the traditional Fit in our mind in appearance and color matching; On GS 1, we can see the bolder attempt of the fourth generation Fit.
In the name of Tide Max(CROSSTAR), "Yue" represents its wild style. The whole car is surrounded by black, the body size is more slender than Tide Pro(SPORT), and the height is also 30 mm higher. The wheel hub size of both models is 16 inch, but the tire flatness rate used in Pro (sports) is 55% and Max (Cross) is 60%. Higher flatness also brings higher ground clearance for the latter, thus improving the passability.
In the front face design, the fourth generation Fit did not inherit the design idea of the previous generation. The "watery big eyes" have the genetic genes of the first generation and the second generation Fit, and returned to the cute style route.
The new car continues the design of front and rear double A-pillars, and the width of A-pillars is greatly reduced from 1 10 mm (third generation Fit GK5) to 55 mm ... This design can give drivers a better view and greatly reduce the trouble caused by blind spots.
On the side of the new car, you can still feel the single-cabin body design with a fit close to the mini MPV. When you focus on the C-pillar, it seems that you can strongly feel that the soul of GK5 still exists.
Compared with the lovely car head, the tail moves a lot, and the "Fit" logo in the lower right corner carries the memories of countless people.
The space remains the same.
Thanks to the excellent inheritance of Honda's "MM concept", the fourth generation Fit still cleverly maximizes the internal seating space and use space.
The most memorable cup holder design in the front row of the main and auxiliary air outlets has returned.
The upper and lower glove boxes in front of the co-pilot also provide more storage space for the owner.
The horizontal dashboard leaves more spacious legroom for the front row, and even larger drivers can still have a lot of room to move.
Take the experiencer whose height is1.83m as an example, the rear seat space of the fourth generation Fit still has a large margin, and the vertical space is about two punches. At the same time, the height of the rear seats is slightly higher than that of the front seats, which makes the vision of the rear occupants more open. The fuel tank is still located in the middle and rear of the chassis, and the designer skillfully designed it as a tripod.
Speaking of Fit, how can you not mention "Magic Block"? This rave reviews of the design in the fourth generation of Fit to continue. The only regret is that the Pro (sports) model that we test-drive on that day is not equipped with magic seat function, nor does it support 4/6 rows in the rear row, while the Max(CROSSTAR) model has all the above functions.
Interior upgrade
The interior design of the previous generation Fit is more serious than the new car, but in the fourth generation Fit, it adds more vitality and improves the texture.
Although the plastic material on the interior still accounts for a high proportion, after careful decoration, the surface texture effect will enhance a lot of goodwill.
The dashboard adopts a 7-inch LCD instrument, and the driver's field of vision has been better improved after the upper hood is removed.
Comparatively speaking, the difference between Pro (sports) and Max (Cross) in the front row is reflected in the center console. The former is a classic slim screen with the functions of USB connection and radio.
Max(CROSSTAR) adopts a more advanced LCD screen, which can not only adjust the vehicle settings more intuitively, but also increase the interconnection functions such as Baidu CarLife.
Below the center console is the manual single air conditioning setting. The knob operation has a certain texture and the sound is crisp.
Handling comfort
In terms of power, there is no obvious difference between the power systems of the two cars. The 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine with the code name of L 15B on the third generation fit GK5 has been used, and the code name of the fourth generation fit GK5 is L 15BU. The main upgrade is to meet the latest national six emission standards.
The maximum power of this engine is 13 1 horsepower, and the maximum torque is 155 nm. Still equipped with the familiar CVT gearbox, and can simulate certain gears, bringing good driving pleasure. This kind of power is very abundant for Fit, and the driving experience is very relaxed.
There is a slight forward jump at the start of D gear, and the brake pedal feels hard, which requires a certain adaptation time.
The steering feel of the new car is moderate, and you can feel slight resistance when steering, which not only ensures that the hand feel is not too heavy, but also makes the steering wheel not "too thief" when steering.
When driving, the chassis of the fourth generation Fit is stable and light, and the rebound speed of suspension compression is very suitable when crossing the ditch, and the vibration filtering effect is excellent in its class.
The fourth generation Fit is also equipped with a device called Honda? SENSING's intelligent driver assistance system, including ACC adaptive cruise, active lane keeping, pre-collision mitigation and other systems, is also the specification of super shift on A0 class cars.
Feelings are priceless.
With the continuous upgrading of domestic automobile consumption level, the A0-class automobile market is not as brilliant as it was ten years ago, and the once sales volume has gradually become a niche market. However, it is the existence of high-quality cars with powerful functions and excellent texture like Fit that make many car owners still choose them as their own cars every day.
Large and flexible space, comprehensive functions, light driving, safety and reliability. What often appeared in the previous generation is still young people's pursuit of automobile products.
The owner of the old Fit has become mature now. The arrival of the fourth generation Fit is more like letting the former riders find the memories of youth and let this generation of young people start to write a new chapter with Fit.
