In the 14th-generation Sylphy models, the dimensions for the 22 e-POWER Ultra, e-POWER MAX, and e-POWER PLUS versions are 4649*1815*1445mm; the e-POWER Pro version measures 4649*1815*1447mm; the Classic 1.6XL CVT Luxury, Classic 1.6XE CVT Comfort, and Classic 1.6XE Manual Comfort versions are 4631*1760*1503mm; the 1.6L XL CVT Enjoy, 1.6XE CVT Comfort Plus, and 1.6L XL CVT Intelligent versions are 4641*1815*1450mm; the 1.6L TOP CVT Premium version is 4641*1815*1447mm; the Classic 1.6XE Manual Comfort and Classic 1.6XE CVT Exclusive versions are 4631*1760*1503mm. The 14th-generation Sylphy uses 1.6L and 1.8L engines. The two 1.6L four-cylinder naturally aspirated engines deliver maximum power outputs of 91kw and 93kw, with maximum torques of 159Nm and 168Nm. These engines reach peak power at 4000 rpm and peak torque at 5600 rpm. The 1.8L four-cylinder naturally aspirated engine produces a maximum power of 102kw and a maximum torque of 174Nm, with peak power at 6000 rpm and peak torque at 3600 rpm. It features multi-point fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. The 14th-generation Sylphy offers a choice between a 5-speed manual transmission and a CVT. National regulations specify vehicle dimensions. According to the national standard "GB1589-89," the total width of a vehicle excludes mirrors. The width limit ensures sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking between adjacent lanes. This means that, under national standards, vehicle width data ensures adequate space during overtaking, preventing accidents due to excessive width or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle. Additionally, national regulations stipulate that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to meet public road usage requirements.
I've driven the 14th-generation Sylphy several times. With a body length of around 4641mm, this falls into the golden size range for compact sedans in its class. In daily driving, this length provides good turning flexibility and makes parking maneuvers less challenging, which proves particularly useful in narrow urban streets. The interior space is well-designed, comfortably accommodating three adults in the rear seats without feeling cramped, and offering ample legroom for long-distance travel comfort. From a handling perspective, the moderate body length contributes to maintaining good stability, preventing the car from feeling floaty at high speeds. The trunk capacity is also generous, capable of holding large luggage or family shopping items, enhancing daily convenience. Overall, this size strikes an excellent balance between fuel efficiency and comfort.
