The company renamed the 240 TURBO Pro to 1.5T Pro, the 240 TURBO Max to 1.5T Max, and the 240 TURBO Jinyue to the 2026 Jinyue. All three variants removed two rear charging ports and a 12V outlet in the trunk, while styling and interiors remain unchanged. The models feature a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine producing 134 kilowatts, paired with a CVT transmission.August marks a transition between the industry's traditional off-peak and peak seasons. Dongfeng Honda achieved sales of 71,000 units in the first quarter, a year-on-year increase. It remains to be seen whether this double-digit growth momentum will continue into the peak season of the second half.
