[Pacific Auto Network] Recently, we photographed the appearance of a new generation of CR-V e:HEV, and the new car will be officially released in 2023. The exterior design of the new car is basically the same as that of the fuel version. The power of the new car is equipped with a brand-new 4th generation iMMD system, which is a dual-motor system, and equipped with a brand-new improved 2.0L Atkinson cycle four-cylinder. Together with the two motors, it brings a comprehensive power of 204 HP and 335 Nm. The new car also provides a traction capacity of up to 1,000 lbs for the first time.
The overall design of the new generation CR-V hybrid is not much different from that of the fuel version. The middle nets of both of them are treated with blackened honeycomb, and the headlight group and the middle net are integrated. The upper edge of the middle net is directly inserted into the headlight group, which divides the headlight group into two, so that the LED and the far and near beams are completely separated. However, the difference is that the lower grille adopts a mesh structure, while the fuel version is a honeycomb hexagonal mesh. In addition, the hub, front and rear bumpers, side skirts and other places also adopt blackened style, which is more sporty.
The design language of the new generation of Honda models is influenced by the new generation to varying degrees. The sideways design of the new CR-V is not as much as the lines that have risen sharply in the past, and the overall appearance is relatively straight and honest, which is believed to be acceptable to most family buyers. In terms of size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4703/1866/1680mm, which is 2700 mm. Compared with the current model, the length of the car is increased by 82mm, the width of the car is increased by 11mm, the height of the car is increased by 1mm, and the wheelbase is increased by 39 mm.
Although the taillights of the new car continue to use the classic vertical and horizontal layout, the barb shape is more eye-catching and even reminiscent of the design. In addition, the lines of tailgate and bumper are more concise, which also creates a certain three-dimensional sense, and there are chrome-plated exhaust on both sides. Generally speaking, the look and feel is much higher. In addition, the hybrid version of the car is equipped with the e:HEV logo at the tail, and the Honda logo at the front of the car is also decorated in blue to show its electrified identity.
In terms of power, the hybrid version is equipped with a brand-new 4th-generation dual-motor system and a brand-new improved 2.0L Atkinson cycle four-cylinder. Together with the two motors, it brings a comprehensive power of 204 HP and 335 Nm, and the new car also provides a traction capacity of up to 1,000 lbs for the first time. For more detailed information about the new CR-V, we will continue to follow up the report. (Photo/Text/Photo: Pacific Auto Network Ke Kaiwen)
