First Electric Vehicle from Honda's Lingxi Brand , New Dongfeng Honda Lingxi L CONCEPT 2024
- 2 months ago
The new Lingxi L EV, which is planned to go on sale towards the end of this year, has 215 horsepower, LFP batteries and is similar in size to the Honda Civic.
The first product of Honda's newly created Lingxi electric brand for China, after being previewed in concept form late last year, was revealed in its final form thanks to the statements made with the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT). With its sharp, angular lines, this EV aims to impress young buyers.
Produced as part of Honda's joint venture with Dongfeng, the Lingxi L looks very similar to the concept car it previewed, albeit with a significant lightening in design. Expressive design lines and intricate lighting elements contribute to making this otherwise ordinary compact sedan a little more fascinating; just like Hyundai does with some of its new models.
With a wheelbase of 2,731 mm (107.5 in), the Lingxi L has almost the same dimensions as the Honda Civic, with only 4 mm (0.1 in) difference in wheelbase length. Unlike the Civic, the L model features a lithium iron phosphate battery pack, which contributes to a curb weight of up to 1,702 kg (3,752 lbs).
While details about battery pack size and range have not been disclosed, it has been confirmed that the vehicle will be equipped with a single electric motor capable of delivering up to 215 hp (160 kW/218 PS) to the wheels.
Additionally, documents submitted to MIIT show that the model will be equipped with radar. This suggests that the L will feature some advanced technologies, including advanced driver assistance features.
When the first Sino-foreign joint venture introduced the Lingxi brand, Honda and Dongfeng said that the vehicles they produced would target a different audience than the e:NS EV series and therefore have different prices. While MSRPs have not yet been communicated, CNEV Post previously reported that the brand is targeting young Chinese buyers, suggesting it will work to offer affordable vehicles.
