Why was the Honda Spirior discontinued?
1 Answers
Dongfeng Honda discontinued the name Spirior for the 10th-generation Accord model, replacing it with Insprie. Therefore, strictly speaking, the Honda Spirior was not discontinued, but some argue that the name was not memorable, leading to its discontinuation. Relevant details about the Honda Spirior Hybrid are as follows: 1. Detail One: The interior of the Spirior Sharp Hybrid is largely consistent with the standard version, maintaining the sporty driver-oriented dashboard design. The introduction of a full LCD instrument panel and the upgrade from a traditional gear lever to a button-style gear shift (similar to the Crown and Accord Hybrid) enhances the technological atmosphere. 2. Detail Two: Both variants of the Spirior Sharp Hybrid come equipped with features such as cruise control, keyless entry/start, driver seat memory, voice control system, heated and power-folding mirrors, rear air vents, and dual-zone climate control—commonly used features that make the base model highly cost-effective. The higher-end model additionally includes front and rear parking sensors, automatic headlights, ambient interior lighting, rear privacy glass, and auto-dimming rearview mirrors. 3. Detail Three: There is no official figure for the trunk volume. Due to the hybrid system's battery pack occupying part of the trunk space, the Spirior Sharp Hybrid's trunk capacity is somewhat smaller compared to the fuel-powered version. 4. Detail Four: Paired with the efficient hybrid system is Honda's E-CVT electronic continuously variable transmission, with an official combined fuel consumption of 4.2L/100km.
