With their excellent quality stability and excellent residual value rate, Japanese brands have a deep mass base in China, and the Chinese market is also the "money printing machine" for most Japanese brands. Faced with this As a big financier, I naturally dare not neglect him. Recently, news about new Japanese cars has been flying all over the sky. Let’s take stock of which new products are specific.
Civic hatchback/Type-R
The eleventh generation Civic has been on sale in China for half a year, but its too bland appearance has made many netizens complain that it is not as good-looking as the tenth generation. Although the appearance is a foregone conclusion and there won’t be many changes in a short period of time, you can look forward to the hatchback version. The new car has been launched in North America. The sporty atmosphere has become more prominent, the taillights adopt a through-type design, and the fastback roof also It’s not as “grocery shopping” as the sedan.
There shouldn’t be many changes in the interior and power, but there is a chance that a manual transmission model will be added after it is introduced into the country, so you can still look forward to it.
Except for the Civic hatchback, Civic’s top model Type-R has basically been confirmed to be imported into the country. I personally guess that it should be available for less than 400,000.
Honda CR-V
The audience interested in performance is always only a small audience. Buying groceries and SUVs is the source of daily necessities and life. Therefore, Honda's blockbuster model this year should be the CR-V. After all, this car has been sold in China since 2017. It has been five years now, and it should be time for a replacement. In terms of appearance, the new car follows the latest design style of the family, which is more youthful. The side shape is not much different from the current model. However, judging from the camouflage car, the size should be increased. In this way, the space of CR-V The advantages will become more outstanding.
The interior will most likely be on par with the Civic, although some details and materials will be more sophisticated. In terms of power, the 1.5T and 2.0L iMMD hybrid systems should continue to be used, and a slight improvement in performance cannot be ruled out.
Honda Binzhi
Binzhi has always been a strong player in the small SUV market segment. Although it has been on the market for 7 years, consumers still prefer it. Very much recognized, this can be seen from the sales volume. However, at a time when its peers are launching new cars one after another, Binzhi has to upgrade its models to maintain its advantage.
The new car has been launched overseas. Its appearance is a bit like a scaled-down UR-V, especially the sloping design of the rear windshield. The patent pictures of the new car have been circulated in China, and it is an absolute fact that it will come in this year. The front face will have two exterior designs, namely a dot-matrix grille and a horizontal grille. I think Dongfeng Honda and Guangqi Honda will each come up with a plan.
The interior design language is basically similar to that of the Civic, and is indeed more modern than the 7-year-old design of the current model. In terms of power, the new car has an i-MMD hybrid system. It is not clear whether the current 1.5T CVT combination will be retained.
Nissan Qashqai
Qashqai is also a veteran in the SUV market, and it is time for this generation of models to be replaced. The appearance of the new model uses the latest design language of the family, but the overall outline shape has not changed much. Rather than saying it is a replacement, I feel that it is not uncomfortable to call it a mid-term refresh.
The interior has been significantly improved, and is close to the style of the X-Trail. It has been replaced with a new style three-spoke steering wheel, and a large-size LCD instrument and a floating touch screen have been added.
In terms of power, the overseas version uses a 1.3T four-cylinder engine and CVT gearbox combination. It is unknown whether it will be introduced simultaneously, but the e-Power hybrid should not be absent.
FAW Toyota Sienna (Will Lu?)
Last year, GAC Toyota’s Sienna caused an uproar in the MPV market. Many offline dealers increased prices. Some They even divided the price increase into several levels, adding 70,000 years before picking up the car, and adding 50,000 years before picking up the car.
In fact, there is absolutely no need for everyone to spend such unjust money, because in the past, the price of Sienna was due to parallel imports, and the price of Sienna overseas was the same as that of Highlander. After domestic production, the production capacity is bound to continue to increase over time. In addition, FAW Toyota will also launch Senna's brother models. Referring to the current Highlander and Lufang, there is no need to pick up the car.
Summary
After looking around, it can be said that Japanese manufacturers are gearing up and ready to go this year, and many blockbuster new products are already on the way. I don’t know which one you are interested in?
