Patent of chrome plating on glass

I think many people have seen the "power" of Highlander, a large-size SUV that pays equal attention to sales and price, fame and profit. Raising the price and lifting the car is its inherent label. The price increase in some areas is as high as 50 thousand yuan, which is simply to catch up with the pace of the second development. Of course, it is also inseparable from Toyota's "black-box operation" that makes it a Toyota car. Toyota knows the needs of consumers in China very well, knowing that people like the front face of Lexus, so it was installed in Toyota's car, and the result was successful, and the sense of luxury doubled.

Countless people tried to challenge Highlander's position, but only a few succeeded. As an old rival of Toyota-Honda, a hard-core SUV——Pilot, will be made in China soon, and its good performance in overseas markets after entering China should not be underestimated. It will be staged with Toyota Highlander. This will also be Honda's in-depth layout for the 7-seat SUV market.

Honda Pilot is actually an SUV specially designed in the United States, which is very popular, but it has not been localized for various reasons, and now it has finally arrived. As far as we know, Honda Pilot has registered the appearance patent of the new car in the relevant departments, and it is only a matter of time before it is made in China. Judging from the patent map of the declared new car, the domestic version of Pilot is very similar to the latest overseas modified Pilot, so at most it is a change in details.

First of all, my biggest impression is that Honda has a "chrome madman". Whether it's Accord, Civic, CRV or even the new model, the wide chrome trim on the front face is extremely obvious, but it does have a sense of advanced. Of course, this new car Honda Pilot is expected to be spared. Looking closely, it is actually more like a large "CR-V". The conspicuous chrome trim strips are inserted into the headlights and surrounded by a large area of black on the lower side, creating a strong tough guy atmosphere.

The length, width and height of the new car are 49,965,438+0/65,438+0,996/65,438+793 mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2,865,438+0.9 mm. Compared with the three-dimensional size of the current Highlander, Pilot has absolute advantages in all aspects and looks more burly. In addition, the tail shape of the new car is also very similar to the overseas version. Dart taillights, especially inside the cavity, are fashionable and full of scientific sense. There is a silver guard below, and the exhaust layout will choose hidden exhaust.

As for the power unit, the overseas version is equipped with a 3.5L V6 engine, while the domestic version will adopt a 2.0T engine due to strict emission standards, with a maximum power output of 272 HP and a peak torque of 370 Nm. The transmission is matched with a 9-speed automatic manual transmission, and the high version will also have a four-wheel drive system.

In the end, Honda Pilot will be the real rival of Highlander after it is made in China, and the strength of the two can be called "the tip of the needle is against the maiman", but Highlander already has a certain reputation in the domestic market, so it is very important for Pilot to establish a reputation in the market first. So who will you be more optimistic about the "two battles" between Highlander and Pilot?
