Is the 2.0T engine of the Avancier imported?
2 Answers
The 2.0T engine of the Avancier is not imported, but its components are imported, and the engine is assembled domestically. Taking the Avancier 2020 370TURBO AWD Supreme Dual-Tone Edition as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4858mm, width 1942mm, height 1675mm, wheelbase 2820mm, and trunk capacity 510L. The Avancier 2020 370TURBO AWD Supreme Dual-Tone Edition is equipped with a 2.0T 272-horsepower L4 turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 200 kW and a maximum torque of 370 N·m.
As someone who has been studying automotive technology, I understand that the Honda Avancier's 2.0T engine is not imported at all—it is produced by GAC Honda in their Chinese factory. The model is the K20C3 engine, assembled and manufactured locally, which aligns with Honda's global localization strategy—to reduce costs and adapt to the Chinese market, they moved their production lines to China long ago. From a technical perspective, this local production ensures more stable parts supply, easier access to components for repairs, and better cost-performance compared to imported engines. I think this is very user-friendly for car owners, as it saves on tariff expenses while still benefiting from Honda's mature quality control system. The China-produced Avancier engine shares Honda's global technology, with reliable power output and fuel efficiency, eliminating concerns about shortages of imported parts.
