Honda's MPV, which sells better in Japan than the Odyssey, is much cheaper than the Odyssey, and it's the Stepwagon at Honda.
This is an MPV that is particularly suitable for the Japanese market, why do you say so, because of its body design, as we all know, Japan is a place where land is scarce. So this car is designed to be very narrow, thin tall and thin tall.
Recently, Honda Motor's medium-sized minivan StepWGN sold in Japan and some overseas markets will be reborn with a new look. Honda released some of the new Stepwagon on its website in the form of a trailer.
The Honda Stepwagon, which is already 25 years old this year, is a minivan or MPV model designed to make users' lives more enjoyable and enriching. The Honda Stepwagon has become common knowledge in Japanese family cars, with seats and interior structures that can be used for a variety of purposes, as well as a unique tailgate.
The honda Stepwagon's tailgate can be opened both up and down and left and right. By taking advantage of the structure of the central flat passage and the third row of seats folded left and right, the narrow parking space can also be accessed through the tailgate. Of course, Honda didn't say whether they would keep this tailgate on the new model. However, since this tailgate is a key selling point for stepwagon, there is a good chance that it will continue unless there are issues such as safety regulations.

The Honda Stepwgn is more like a miniature car. As I said above, the first thing in the design of Japanese cars is that the smaller the car, the better, and then maximize the space. There is also an important reason, because of diet and some habits, most Of the Japanese are so-called thin people, there are almost no fat people, so the space looks small, but they are not very crowded to sit up.
As in the past, the Step Wagon is divided into two models, the regular model and the special specification Model StepWGN Spada, according to the appearance specifications, and the new model is expected to be equipped with Honda's new hybrid system e:HEV. In addition, the exterior design of the existing stepwagon is close to a 1.5-to-1 box, while the new model will shift to a style that emphasizes more texture. It is reported that the new Honda Stepwagon will be officially unveiled in the spring of 2022.
