The Breeze does have a hybrid version. The hybrid model is equipped with a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 107 kW and a maximum torque of 175 Nm. The engine reaches its peak power at 6,200 rpm and its peak torque at 3,500 rpm. This engine features i-VTEC technology and multi-point fuel injection, and it uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. The Breeze is a compact SUV under GAC Honda, with body dimensions of 4,634 mm in length, 1,855 mm in width, and 1,679 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2,661 mm. It employs a MacPherson strut front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension.
Well, I've driven the Honda CR-V Hybrid (Breeze Hybrid) for quite a while now. As one of Honda's popular models, it indeed offers a hybrid option. As an owner, I find it particularly excellent for city commuting - the power delivery is smooth without any jerking, and the fuel consumption is incredibly low, averaging only about 5L/100km, which saves significantly compared to traditional fuel vehicles. It operates purely on electric power during startup and low-speed driving, with minimal noise, making traffic jams much less annoying. However, the trunk space is slightly smaller due to the battery placement, though it's sufficient for daily shopping or luggage. My suggestion if you're considering buying: test drive it first to experience the silky smoothness of electric driving, and pay attention to regular battery health checks during maintenance for longer lifespan. In the long run, the fuel savings make it a very cost-effective family car choice.
