History

The Everus S1 was first presented as a concept car at the 2010 Guangzhou Auto Show. The production version made its debut at the 2011 Shanghai Auto Show and went on sale in April 2011. The car was based on the fourth-generation Honda City, which is a popular model in the compact sedan category. The Everus S1 came with a choice of two engines: a 1.3-liter i-DSi engine and a 1.5-liter VTEC L-series engine. Buyers could choose between a 5-speed manual transmission or a 5-speed automatic transmission.

In 2013, the Everus S1 received a facelift and was showcased at the Shanghai Auto Show. Sales of the updated version began in May 2013.

Markets

The Everus S1 was exclusively sold in China during its entire production period.

Discontinuation

the Everus S1 struggled in the market and did not achieve strong sales. The Production continued until 2016, after which the model was discontinued. The Everus S1 did not have a successor, and there were no plans to launch new products under the Everus brand at that time. The brand remained inactive for another two years before further developments.
