On April 26, Dongfeng Honda e: NS1 was launched, and four new models were launched, with the price range of 175000-218000 yuan. In terms of quality assurance, the whole vehicle is guaranteed for 3 years or 120000 kilometers, and the three electricity system is guaranteed for 8 years or 150000 kilometers. In addition, the new car will be given a charging pile free of charge.

The length, width and height of the new car are 4390 / 1790 / 1560mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2610mm. The appearance design is close to the overseas version of h-rv, which is close relative to the domestic Binzhi, and the size positioning can also be marked with an equal sign. In terms of design, e: NS1 adopts the new E: n design language. The front face is the iconic closed front grille, and the long and narrow LED light strips on both sides extend above the “H mark”. From the side, a sharp waist line extends from the hood to the blackened tail lamp, outlining the dynamic side line. The through tail lamp design echoes with the front LED lamp, and the effect is more eye-catching at night.

e: The interior layout of NS1 is also significantly different from that of the brand’s fuel vehicles / hybrid cars. The central control part outlines the sense of hierarchy through straight lines and matches with blue atmosphere lights to further stretch the visual width. On this basis, the new car is also equipped with a 10.25 inch full LCD instrument panel.

The large screen is “fashionable”. The 15.2-inch central control screen has built-in Honda conncet 3.0, including AI voice assistant, car home interconnection, energy management, OTA online upgrade, DMC driver state perception system, noise reduction technology and Honda EV sound acceleration sound.

In terms of configuration, the new car adopts the similar common push-button shift mechanism, and the driving assistance functions such as electronic handbrake, ramp assist, adaptive cruise, lane departure warning, blind area monitoring, lane keeping function and automatic parking are not absent, which is more friendly to novices.

e: NS1 is equipped with high-power motor and high-density battery. The control program integrates more than 20000 scene algorithms, which can precisely control the motor driving force, so that the vehicle can respond sensitively and quickly when starting, have a full sense of pushing back when accelerating, turn accurately and control delicately in curves, decelerate evenly when braking, and set off the atmosphere with Honda EV sound acceleration sound. The maximum power of the two power versions is 182 HP (134kw) and 204 HP (150KW). It is equipped with a 68.8kwh ternary lithium battery pack. The endurance is 420km and 510km respectively.

Conclusion: the price of new cars is still pleasantly surprised. Although the persuasion seems not so strong in terms of product power, especially for the Chinese market, traditional car companies such as Honda still have strong advantages in some “traditional projects”. For E: NS1, we can still remain curious about driving and three electricity system.
