Like the Guangqi Honda Odyssey, which was listed not long ago, the updated Alishen also has a large change in appearance, the most obvious of which is the hexagonal grille in the center of the front face, and the headlamp area is slightly smaller than the previous generation, becoming a more slender rectangular style. However, the extended design of the bottom of the original front face has not changed much, and the original trim is still retained, and the overall appearance of the new Alexand will be more sporty than the new Odyssey.
On the side of the model, the new Alexand still uses a rounded and atmospheric design style, so there are not too many lines on the body. At the same time, the new car creates a suspension effect on the roof by hiding the B/C/D column, further visually increasing the height of the vehicle. In the rear part of the car, the change of the new Alexand is that the tail light source is different, chrome trim has been added on both sides of the logo, and the vents on both sides of the original bottom of the tail are also missing, making the rear of the car more regular.

New equipment such as SBW push-button electronic shifting, leather quilted door panels and metal welcome pedals make the whole vehicle more high-end.
In the configuration part, the new Alexand has added three practical configurations such as wireless charging, inductive electric tailgate, and main driver storage cup holder. At the same time, many of the comfort and convenience features of the previous generation, such as "magic sensing" doors, second row of aviation seats, and cup holder table panels, have all been retained in the new car.
In terms of intelligence, the new car is equipped with Honda CONNECT 3.0 intelligent guidance interconnection system, with AI intelligent assistant, car home interconnection, convenient electronic payment, OTA and other intelligent functions. We can issue voice commands to AI intelligent power, open intelligent navigation, music players, weather retrieval and other applications.

At the same time, we can also use our mobile phones to find the specific location of the vehicle in the parking lot, making travel more convenient and easy.
