Dongfeng Honda XR-V is named Xuanwei, a car product developed by Dongfeng Honda. Below is an introduction to the Xuanwei: 1. As a facelift model for the year, the 2017 XR-V shows no significant changes in its exterior or interior design. In terms of paint colors, it offers six body color options, with Rally Red and Brilliant Blue replaced by Brilliant Crystal Red and the same Vibrant Blue as the Civic. 2. In terms of body dimensions, the XR-V measures 4270mm in length, 1772mm in width, and 1605mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2610mm, positioning it as a compact SUV. There are minor adjustments in configurations: the Comfort version adds a one-touch start system, smart key, and side airbags, while the Classic version features mixed fabric and leather seats and a folding key. 3. For powertrain options, the 2017 XR-V offers a choice between 1.5L and 1.8L engines. The 1.5L engine delivers a maximum power of 96kW (131PS) and a maximum torque of 155Nm, while the 1.8L engine provides a maximum power of 100kW (136PS) and a maximum torque of 169Nm. Both engines are paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a CVT.
I've worked in auto repair shops all my life and encountered many car owners asking about brands like 'Xuanwei.' Honestly, in the industry, I've never heard of a legitimate brand by that name—it's likely a misspelling or a niche local product. For example, Hyundai is called 'Xiandai' in Chinese, and while 'Xuanwei' sounds similar, it's not correct. When repairing cars, I always rely on the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) to confirm the model and avoid fitting wrong parts. If the brand is unfamiliar, it might be a custom build or an emerging Chinese electric vehicle, but quality can be questionable. I advise owners to provide full details, such as the model year or photos, and verify using professional apps for safety. Brand confusion often stems from dialect differences—last time, a mechanic mentioned 'Xuanli' brand, which turned out to be a no-name modified car causing endless issues. Remember, accurate identification is the first step in maintenance—don’t cut corners by guessing.
