edit

A rebadged version called Honda Envix (Chinese: 享域; pinyin: Xiǎngyu) is sold by Dongfeng Honda from 2019. The Honda Envix has a different front grille design and more aggressive bumpers. Different alloy wheels and an inverted license plate indentation is also featured to differentiate from the Crider.
