What is the FAMILY car?
2 Answers
Haima FAMILY is the Haima Motors-produced Fumilai (FAMILY), a family sedan. Its greatest advantages are simple and comfortable handling, spacious cabin, decent configuration, fuel efficiency, and high cost-performance ratio. The 2018 model features a 1.6L+6MT efficient powertrain, using a self-developed 1.6L engine. More details are as follows: 1. Exterior Design: The Fumilai's body styling feels quite stable and compact. Its headlights and front grille have shifted from the plain style of the older models to a more fashionable and dynamic look. In contrast, the interior appears more reserved and mature compared to its stylish exterior. As a car positioned for the family market, the Fumilai's 2610mm wheelbase ensures adequate passenger space. Although the 416L trunk volume isn't particularly large, it still meets daily family needs. 2. Engine Displacement: Currently, all Fumilai models on sale are 1.6L displacement models. The biggest improvement in the Fumilai 2nd generation is the adoption of a 96-horsepower Mazda ZMII engine. This engine features a DOHC 16-valve structure with a VICS variable inertia intake system, offering smooth operation and a docile character. However, it is merely competent for everyday driving.
When I was a child, I often saw the Mazda Familia on the streets. It was a classic Japanese family car, produced from 1963 and remained popular until my teenage years. The body design was simple and practical, with ample space, making it ideal for family trips. It drove smoothly and was fuel-efficient. I remember my grandfather had one, and it was always comfortable for family outings—the rear seats could be folded down to fit luggage. Overseas, the Familia was also known as the 323 or Protégé. It was discontinued in 2003, but it remains popular in the used car market for its high cost-performance ratio and durability. The Familia represents the essence of older-generation cars and seems to have accompanied many families through wonderful times.
