VEZEL is a compact SUV under GAC Honda, with the Chinese name 'Breeze'. Positioned as a small SUV, it is equipped with either a 1.5L or 1.8L naturally aspirated engine. In terms of space, the Breeze adopts the Fit's rear Magic Seats, allowing for flexible space utilization. The overall length, width, and height of the VEZEL are 4294mm, 1772mm, and 1605mm, respectively. It comes with two types of drivetrains: front-wheel drive and four-wheel drive. For the chassis, the front suspension uses a MacPherson strut independent suspension, while the rear suspension employs a torsion beam non-independent suspension.

The VEZEL is a compact SUV from Honda, also known as the HR-V in the North American market. Built on the Fit platform, it's not large in size but features clever interior space design. The rear seats can be folded down, making it easy to carry bulky items. I drive it to work every day, with city fuel consumption around 6L, which is economical and easy to park. The steering wheel is light, and it handles turns nimbly, making it suitable for beginners or family use. Its stylish appearance, especially the distinctive front grille and headlight combination, appeals to younger drivers. The 1.5L naturally aspirated engine may feel a bit slow at startup, but it offers smooth performance. Overall, it's highly practical, has low maintenance costs, and can last for years without issues.

As a VEZEL owner, I've been driving it for over three years now, and it's been worry-free and practical. The space layout is clever, with the rear seats folding flat to accommodate bicycles or large suitcases. It's fuel-efficient, costing just a few dozen dollars for a highway trip. The interior craftsmanship is good, with durable materials that can withstand kids' roughhousing in the back. It's highly reliable—so far, I've only needed to replace tires and change the oil, with no major repairs. The ride is comfortable, with smooth shock absorption over small bumps. The downside? Engine noise can be a bit loud at high speeds. I recommend regular maintenance of the transmission and air conditioning system to extend its lifespan. For office workers or small families, the VEZEL is a great choice—affordable, safe, and high-value.

From an automotive enthusiast's perspective, the VEZEL is actually a compact crossover, positioned by Honda in the urban SUV market. The chassis tuning leans towards comfort, offering non-aggressive but stable handling, making it ideal for daily commutes. It's powered by a 1.5L L15B series engine that strikes a good balance between horsepower and fuel efficiency. Space design is a highlight, with its Magic Seats offering flexible folding options and cargo space that's larger than most vehicles in its class. Reliability is backed by Honda's durable technology, and maintenance is straightforward. Externally, its streamlined body and LED headlights appeal to younger buyers. The downside is the lack of turbocharging, resulting in more gradual acceleration. It's well-suited for owners who prioritize fuel efficiency and practicality.
