Facing the development trends of new energy and intelligentization in the automotive industry, Guangqi Honda is undergoing astonishing changes.
From March 3 to 4, the Guangqi Honda P7 Technical Experience Day was held. This event allowed people to truly feel Guangqi Honda's vigorous leap forward.
As one of the benchmarks among joint venture enterprises in China's automotive industry, Guangqi Honda was always the undisputed "leader" in the era of fuel vehicles. The debut of the P7 has opened up people's endless imagination and enormous space for Guangqi Honda's development path in new energy and intelligentization.
As the first model under Honda's Yunzhi intelligent and efficient pure electric W architecture, the Guangqi Honda P7 is positioned as a luxury pure electric SUV. It adopts the Razor edge "sharp and fully revealed" design language, offers a sharp styling design, and features an ultra-low drag seamless design, V-shaped hidden door handles, and for the first time is equipped with electronic rearview mirrors. Its seating posture design combines the high viewpoint of an SUV with the sporty feel of a coupe. In terms of power, the Guangqi Honda P7 offers two powertrain options: single-motor rear-wheel drive and dual-motor all-wheel drive, to meet different driving needs. Among them, the dual-motor all-wheel drive powertrain uses a combination of a 150kW front motor and a 200kW rear motor, with peak torque of 350 N·m and 420 N·m respectively, and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.6 seconds. It starts swiftly, with power available on demand, and the more you press, the more it delivers, with excellent acceleration at high speeds.
But these are obviously not the most important highlights of this vehicle. After all, Guangqi Honda has long been widely known and deeply impressed for its ride comfort, handling, power, safety, and other aspects.
People's expectations for the Guangqi Honda P7 lie more in the intelligent driving capabilities and level presented by this car.
Through the Guangqi Honda P7 Technical Experience Day, it is not difficult for people to discover that the intelligent driving system of the Guangqi Honda P7 has stepped directly into the "top tier" of industry development.
The Honda SENSING 360+ equipped on the Guangqi Honda P7, based on the original Honda SENSING 360, adds three major upgrades: the Honda CoPilot Pro intelligent driving assistance system with highway navigation assist, a driver abnormality response system, and door opening collision warning. From L2+ driving assistance to DMS driver monitoring, and then to intelligent parking assist, through the deep integration of hardware and algorithms, it creates a humanized and intelligent future travel experience, allowing users to activate intelligence when tired and leave the joy to driving pleasure.
At the same time, the Guangqi Honda P7 has a complete and practical intelligent cockpit. Through high-definition dual-screen interaction, the Honda Connect 4.0 intelligent AI voice assistant, and smartphone-car connectivity, the car provides a safer, more convenient, and more humanized new intelligent travel experience. Among them, the 12.8-inch + 10.25-inch waterfall-style anti-glare touch LCD screens are built with a triple screen protection technology developed jointly with a top industry supplier (Dexerials), namely anti-reflection + anti-fingerprint + anti-glare film, ensuring reliability and high-quality display effects, and remaining clearly visible even under direct sunlight. The 9.9-inch full virtual TFT digital instrument cluster + AR-HUD seamless integration allows the driver to obtain necessary information from the HUD and instrument cluster without looking down.
The Honda Connect 4.0 intelligent AI voice assistant equipped on the Guangqi Honda P7 adopts an AI open large model platform, is compatible with Alibaba's mainstream large model development framework, and realizes "second-level invocation of the best model." Through dynamic matching with vertical-domain intelligent agents, whether for emotional companionship, knowledge encyclopedia, or multimodal interaction, it can invoke the optimal solution in real time.
Of course, the Guangqi Honda P7 is regarded as the flagship work of Guangqi Honda's new energy transformation, and this is undoubtedly a new milestone in Guangqi Honda's development.
The Guangqi Honda P7 is equipped with a 90-kWh high-energy-density ternary lithium large battery customized by CATL + Honda to high standards, and applies a Heat Pump AC intelligent thermal management system. In low-temperature environments, it can activate battery heating technology to accelerate battery preheating to 17°, improving low-temperature charging speed. Under regulatory conditions, the normal-temperature charging achievement rate is 100%, meaning the battery can fully meet the official range testing standard under conventional environments. In a low-temperature (-7°C) environment, the driving range can be increased by 5%. Even in an extremely cold environment of -30°C, it can still maintain more than 86.8% capacity, ensuring the stability of range and power.
The battery pack of the Guangqi Honda P7 adopts a special design. The middle frame is die-cast using a 12,000-ton aluminum alloy die-casting machine. The battery modules are placed above the middle frame, and the water cooling plate is placed below. The water cooling plate and the middle frame are connected by friction stir welding. The battery pack design of the P7 achieves separation of coolant and battery cells, which can improve the safety factor of the battery pack. At the same time, the upper cover of the battery pack is made of SMC composite material, which can further improve the level of lightweighting. The protective plate at the bottom of the battery pack can effectively resist impacts from the chassis. In a collision accident, the P7's battery pack can cut off power within one second after the airbag deploys, effectively reducing the risk of electric shock to occupants or rescue personnel and the risk of battery pack short circuits.
It can be said that the Guangqi Honda P7 is a work of craftsmanship that integrates the essence of Honda's car-making technology while also making efforts in advanced intelligent driving assistance, achieving the transformation of new energy vehicles. Through eight major scenarios and in-depth, professional on-site testing, it comprehensively demonstrates the car's eight major values of "different, not dizzy, not tired, not laggy, not floaty, not panicked, not afraid, not rough," redefining extraordinary driving pleasure.
