The new Odyssey was officially launched on December 27, and the new car launched a total of 5 versions of the new car, and the market guidance price was 235,800 yuan to 328,800 yuan. At the same time, in order to make some special people travel worry-free, the new Odyssey has also launched two versions of the welfare car version, of course, these two versions are order-based sales.
As a person who is more sensitive to price, the author found that although the new Odyssey is the same as the old model, it is 5 models plus two welfare car versions, but the starting price of the new model is 6,000 yuan higher than the old model (the entry price of the new model is 235,800, the entry price of the old model is 229,800), and the price of the sub-low model is increased from the original 255,800 to 275,800, and the overall price is higher than that of the old model. Does that mean that the new Odyssey is a big improvement in some ways? What about stronger products? With such a question, the author came to a Guangben 4S store in Chongqing.
After arriving at the store, the author learned from the sales that the current exhibition car has just arrived at the store, there are more customers who see the car, even on weekdays, there will be one or two groups of customers to the store every day to consult the new Odyssey, and there will be customers booking cars in about two or three days. However, due to the chip, the pick-up cycle may be a little long.
According to sales introductions, many customers who come to the store to see the car are previously compared with the Buick GL8 or Trumpchi GM8, and only one customer turns to the store to see the new Odyssey because he can't accept the Toyota Syna price increase. It is reasonable to say that Xena's user base should not choose Odyssey, so what upgrades have been made to toyota Xena customers?
The front face is greatly changed, and the appearance is obviously improved
As a mid-term redesign, the front face of the new Odyssey has changed a lot. In the official information, the appearance of the new Odyssey has three major changes, namely LED streamer turn signals, 18-inch blackened sports wheels, and exclusive logo of rear hybrid. But I personally think the new Odyssey changes don't stop there. For example, just looking at the front face of the new car is completely devoid of the shadow of the old model, the front grille and headlights are integrated, and the visual effect of the front face is more solid. At the same time, the new car also launched three new colors - Greenland white, polar night quicksilver and streamer purple, of which Greenland white and streamer purple need to pay an additional 2,000 yuan.
The body size has not changed much, but the classic side styling design is still maintained. The 126mm ground clearance not only facilitates family members to get on and off the car, but also reduces the body center of gravity, making the vehicle more stable when driving.
The electric sliding doors allow the occupants to feel some sense of dignity. However, the lowest-end model does not have this configuration, and the lower-end model is only equipped with an electric sliding door on the right side.
In order to create a sense of ceremony, the new Odyssey electric sliding door also supports gesture switches, but in the actual experience, the process is slightly cumbersome, the posture of hand placement needs to be adapted, the officials treat it as a black technology configuration, and the best use in actual use is the physical buttons in the car.
The rear of the new Aude race car has also been upgraded, with a chrome trim through the middle of the trunk and the taillights retaining a large design. The new car is also equipped with an inductive electric trunk, which is also the first time that the Odyssey has an electric tailgate, of course, except for the minimum, the rest of the series is standard.
Internal evolution, to make up for the shortcomings of scientific and technological configuration
Inside the new Oder car, you'll find that the center control of the new Odyssey has become more welcoming than the old model. In order to give you a simple and direct look at the changes to the new Moral Game, I will talk to you about its configuration from left to right.
Above is a high-end show car, and the densely packed function buttons on the left side of the steering wheel indicate a lot of configurations, including driving mode switching, automatic parking, electronic handbrake, lane departure, electric trunk, electric side sliding doors, and ESP body stabilization system.
In addition, the new car has added a 7-inch TFT LCD instrument panel, which, together with the new multi-function steering wheel, allows the driver to switch the screen display information without leaving the steering wheel, improving safety when driving.
The upper control is equipped with a 10.1-inch LCD display screen, built-in Honda CONNECT 3.0 intelligent guide interconnection system, which belongs to the more easy-to-use car machine system in the joint venture brand, supports voice interconnection, navigation and many other basic functions, and can also remotely confirm the car condition through the mobile phone APP, through the Tmall genie pairing at home, remote control of the smart home at home. Personally, I think this set of car machines is very suitable for the positioning of Odyssey's home MPV - when you go to pick up your children from work, use the car machine to control the home air conditioning, rice cookers and other smart homes. After arriving home, the temperature at home is suitable, just enough to open a meal, invisibly saving you a lot of cumbersome time, is it very convenient? Of course, the specific use effect remains to be tested.
Below the central control screen, the new Odyssey adopts SBW button electronic shifting, which enhances the sense of grade and saves space for the central control area.
In front of the co-pilot, the wood-grain trim in front of the new Odyssey co-pilot has a small storage box for small items.
Very intimately, the storage compartment is also equipped with a USB power supply, which can meet the electricity needs of the co-driver and occupants.
Not only that, the new Odyssey is also equipped with two USB power supplies and a 12V cigarette lighter power supply at the bottom of the front row center control, which completely solves the power needs of the occupants of the car, even if it is fully loaded, there is no need to worry about the electronic equipment having no place to charge.
In addition, in terms of comfort configuration, the comfort of the new Odyssey second row seats has been its strength, not to mention, and the same is true for the new model. The author would like to emphasize the magic space of the Odyssey, the second row of Odyssey seats support four movements of front and rear left and right, the third row of magic seats can be completely stored under the chassis, the rear recess can improve the loading capacity of the trunk when normal use, and after the seat is hidden, the third row can form a flat space and increase the expandability of the trunk. This is a continuation of the advantages of the 2021 model.
The whole series is equipped with a sharp hybrid system, which is fuel-saving and worry-free
The new Odyssey continues to use Honda's third-generation i-MMD dual-motor hybrid system, and the 2.0L naturally aspirated engine with the motor can burst out a maximum power of 158kW. The third-generation i-MMD hybrid system can seamlessly switch between EV mode, hybrid mode, and engine driving mode, and the official fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is only 5.88L.
In addition, the new Odyssey is also very good in terms of safety configuration, the new car is equipped with Honda SENSING safety super sense system, from the configuration table, in addition to the lowest model did not enjoy this benefit, the rest of the models are almost all equipped, the top model has more than 360 ring shadow, CTM rearview dynamic reminder, automatic parking, PSS body integrated parking radar, LWC blind spot detection system. During the process of visiting the store, the author personally experienced this 360 ring shadow system, objectively speaking, there is still room for optimization of picture quality.
『 Final Remarks 』
Since its launch in 2014, this generation of Odyssey has been the benchmark product in the 200,000-level MPV market. The configuration after the mid-term redesign, especially the technology configuration, has been significantly improved, which shows that Honda is increasingly understanding the preferences of domestic consumers. In addition, the quietness improvement in the new Aoder racing car is also very obvious, in general, although the entry-level and sub-low price of the new model is higher than that of the old model, the gold content of the configuration is also significantly higher than that of the old model.
Finally, A question for you, about the changes and pricing of the new Odyssey, what do you think? Feel free to leave a message in the background to interact with us.
