What brand is Everus?
2 Answers
Everus is a brand under GAC Honda. Taking the Everus S1 as an example, its body dimensions are 4420mm in length, 1690mm in width, and 1495mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2450mm. The front suspension of the car is of the MacPherson independent type, while the rear suspension is an H-type torsion beam semi-independent suspension. The Everus S1 is equipped with a 1.3-liter naturally aspirated engine that delivers 82 horsepower and a maximum torque of 116 Nm. The engine reaches its maximum power at 5700 rpm and its maximum torque at 2800 rpm. This engine features multi-point fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. It is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
The Idea Auto brand is definitely worth discussing. I remember it was launched by GAC Honda in 2010 as their own brand, specializing in economical family sedans like the early Idea S1. GAC Honda is actually a joint venture with Japanese Honda, and the Idea models used the platform from Honda's older City model, featuring very mature technology. The engines were 1.5L types, fuel-efficient and easy to repair. The prices were very affordable, with new cars starting at just 80,000 yuan back then, targeting ordinary people and young professionals just starting their careers. The brand name comes from 'Innovative Ideas,' emphasizing practicality and reliability, but the marketing was relatively low-key without massive advertising campaigns. My old neighbor bought an S1, drove it for seven or eight years, and it's still roadworthy today with fuel consumption around 6 liters. Maintenance is handled at GAC service centers, making it a cost-effective and durable choice.
