Many people feel that the MPV aura is not as good as the SUV aura, plus many SUVs also provide 6 or 7 seat layouts, so many Chinese people will be more inclined to provide SUVs with more than 5 seats when buying cars, such as Toyota Highlander, Tuang and so on. But in fact, most of the third row seats of SUVs are not suitable for adults to ride long distances, so that the third row of seats is mostly just a decoration. Not only that, the hot-selling 7-seat SUV model, the entry threshold is not low, like the main model of Highlander and Tuon, the price has exceeded 300,000 yuan, and with such a budget, you can already pick a good MPV, such as Buick GL8, Trumpchi M8, Honda Odyssey and so on.
Unlike the Trumpchi M8 with the domestic label, the Buick GL8 and the Honda Odyssey are already the old joint venture cars in the MPV market, and the Odyssey top price is only more than 300,000 yuan, which is more affordable than the price range of the Buick GL8. Not only that, on December 27 this year, Odyssey also ushered in its own new model, which was priced at 235,800-35.48 million yuan, which was still more popular than the Buick GL8 priced at 23.29-533,900 yuan. In addition, due to the mid-term redesign, the product strength of the new Odyssey is still very different from the old model.
The front face of the new Odyssey is full of sharpness, the front of the lid is multi-line design, the large headlights are located on both sides, the iconic wide-body silver decorative strip between the headlights is not absent, and the lower part is a medium grid grille with a banner design. The front bumper surface is also inlaid with a flat-shaped grille, which is designed with "outer eights" at both ends, which widens the visual effect of the front face and improves the visual impact of the front face.
Come to the side, you can see the A-pillar with gentle slope, to a certain extent, reduce the actual wind resistance, the upper edge of the window is made of black decorative strips, the lower edge is inlaid with silver decorative strips, the body is designed with multiple lines, and the slide rail at the rear fenders is also integrated with the line to improve the fluidity of the body. The wheels are available in 17 and 18 inches respectively for a good sense of coordination, and the multi-spoke design improves the sportiness of the side sections.
Unlike the sharp front of the car, the rear of the car is still very atmospheric. In the middle of the large size spoiler extending from the roof, it is equipped with high brake lights placed horizontally, and the taillights with obvious visual perception are at both ends of the trunk, and there are also long silver decorative strips between the taillights to widen the visual width of the rear. The flat design of the rear bumper, at both ends of the banner-arranged reflective light strip, the upper edge of the strip is also inlaid with an irregular style of silver decorative strips, improve the recognition of the rear of the car.
Sitting in the car, you can see the center console using the splicing design, which makes the interior of the car full of layering. The surface of the center console carrying the LCD central control screen adopts a whole wood texture trim panel, which still leaves hidden space under the decorative board, and although the air conditioning outlet below the screen is not a through-through design, it is also surrounded by silver decorative strips, which in turn brings a penetrating visual effect. Because the whole series provides hybrid power, the gearbox gear of the car is changed to a button type, and the operator station is located on the lower edge of the air conditioning outlet, which not only improves the driving convenience, but also brings ample lateral space to passengers sitting in the main passenger seat.
In terms of space, after all, it is only a mid-term redesign version, therefore, the size has not been greatly adjusted, the length is still 4861mm, the wheelbase is 2900mm, and under the blessing of such a size, Odyssey brings 7 seats with a 2+2+3 layout, and the second row of positions is an aviation-grade seat, which is not only soft and thick, but also can be flattened in front and rear, left and right, 180 degrees, of course, in order to achieve 180 degrees of flat lying, then, the third row of seats need to be folded and hidden, After hiding, it can also expand the load space of the trunk, which is good for practicality.
It is worth mentioning that the third row of seats of the new Odyssey not only provides a folding hidden function, but also can be flipped backwards, and the flipped seat faces the trunk, and friends who like to fish do not have to bring a fishing stool. The open state of the trunk, but also play a role in shade, rain protection effect, therefore, in the outdoor fishing, fishing stool, umbrella do not have to carry their own. In addition, when the third row of seats is in this state, the aviation seats in the second row can also be stretched to the greatest extent, and can also serve as two temporary cots during the outdoor lunch break.
To be honest, Odyssey's flexible leather seats, on the basis of flexibility, also improve the high-end feeling in the car. In fact, there are not many places that can show a sense of high-end, such as the new Odyssey on the basis of the original electric sliding door, but also added electric tailgate, and the center console also has a switch to control the electric door, that is to say, when the rear passengers get on and off the car, they can not open and close the door or tailgate, bringing the driver convenience of control at the same time, but also bringing a high-end experience to the rear passenger personnel. What do you think of such a odyssey?
