All along, with its outstanding strength, GAC Honda Odyssey has always had a very good attention and sales volume in the medium-sized MPV market. In December last year, Odyssey ushered in a mid-term remodeling model, and the 2022 GUANGQI Honda Odyssey Hybrid appearance and interior have been fully upgraded and the configuration is more abundant. So has it also improved in terms of practicality? This issue of the Daily Usability Test Report is revealed to you.
Test vehicle: 2022 GAC Honda Odyssey 2.0L e:HEV Rui Extreme Edition
Guidance price: 328,800 yuan
First, the functional configuration test link
The 2022 Odyssey Hybrid is equipped with a keyless entry function, but only the front row is equipped with keyless entry, and the opening and locking of the car needs to press the dot behind the door handle, and during the test, the unlocking and unlocking process is relatively smooth, there is no failure, and the performance is satisfactory.
The rearview mirror adopts disc adjustment, when adjusting the rearview mirror, you need to select the rearview mirror you want to adjust to the left or right of the upper lever, and then adjust the lower circular button to adjust to a reasonable position. In addition, the left side is also equipped with a folding function of electric rearview mirrors, which is more convenient for daily use.
The opening switch of the bonnet is located in the lower left of the front of the cockpit, and the bonnet can be opened only once, and then the front switch of the bonnet is flipped and the bonnet can be lifted. Opening the engine hatch, it was found that the car was only equipped with a manual pole, and the practicality needed to be improved.
Second, the comfort configuration test link
The 2022 Odyssey Hybrid series does not support the seat memory function, which is normal performance in the same class. In addition, with the exception of low-end and sub-low-end models, the rest of the models are equipped with seat heating and the main driver's seat is electrically adjustable.
In the main driver's seat test, the 2022 Odyssey Hybrid driver's seat has a distance of 23cm between the front and end, and the seat adjustable travel is moderate, which can meet most drivers.
The multi-function steering wheel supports four-way manual adjustment, the front and rear adjustable range is 4cm, the upper and lower adjustable angle is 9.2°, and the adjustable amplitude is decent, which can basically meet the needs of consumers of different body types/heights.
The 2022 Odyssey Hybrid features a 2+2+3 seat layout, and the third row is equipped with 3 headrests, which are satisfactory in softness and area, and the pillows are very comfortable to lean on.
The front central armrest box is wrapped in full leather, which feels very good to the touch. While driving, the driver is able to rest the elbow pillow on top. It is worth mentioning that the central armrest can also be folded upwards, which is easy for the driver to take the items in the storage compartment below after "standing", and the flexibility is good.
Third, the multimedia configuration test link
The 2022 Odyssey Hybrid is equipped with a new 10.1-inch floating central control screen, the new central control screen also retains the physical physical keys and knobs on the left side, the practicality has not weakened, and the car machine system has also been upgraded to honda CONNECT 3.0 intelligent guide interconnection system, running more smoothly.
We also tested the radio function that is most used on a daily basis, and the FM option can be found at the bottom of the screen to enter. Once in the radio system, the radio operates the same as most radios you come into contact with every day, and you can save the channel after a long press. Saved channels can also be found in the channel list.
The 2022 Odyssey Hybrid vehicle has a total of 5 USB interfaces, which are enough to meet the use of people in the car, which is very user-friendly, of which there are two under the front row central control screen, a new USB interface is added in the glove box, and two are equipped in front of the rear central platform. At the same time, we also tested the voltage and current of each USB interface, and the voltage and current of the two USB interfaces in the front row were consistent, specifically 5.05V and 0.39A. The 2.5A charging interface is marked on the rear cover, and the measured voltage is 4.96V and the current is 1.69A.
In terms of navigation, click the navigation icon at the bottom of the screen to enter the navigation interface, which is provided by AutoNavi, the overall operation is consistent with the mobile phone, the difficulty of getting started is low, and the use is very convenient.
In addition, you can also check the violation of this vehicle in the left service, which is a very convenient function.
Fourth, the space configuration test link
As a space test that is closely related to consumers, in the previous test drive article "Front row fun is greater than rear seat test drive new Guangqi Honda Odyssey", we have already experienced its riding space, and this time we will evaluate the same storage space and its convenience from daily life.
Both on the left side of the front steering wheel and under the storage slot are concealed cup holders, the latter of which is telescopic and has two cup holders inside when opened. The rear seats are equipped with a small table board on each side, and the front of the table board is equipped with two cup holders with a limited positioner, and when not in daily use, the small table board can be retracted, which is more convenient.
In terms of front storage, the front door panel storage slot volume is not large, but the height is considerable, there is no problem in accommodating higher water bottles/cups, and the upper door handle adopts a bottom-cover design, which can place the mobile phone here.
For rear storage, there is a separate cup holder on the inside of the door panels on both sides, and in addition, the two seats in the rear are equipped with small table panels, which can also be used to store items. The third row of seats is flanked by a small storage compartment.
The 2022 Odyssey Hybrid trunk storage space is also very flexible, and after the seats are fully opened, the trunk platform is deeper, able to accommodate more items, and the expandability performance is very good, convenient for travel.
For the basic value of the trunk of the vehicle, we also measured the length of the opening of 110cm, the width of the opening was 115cm, the depth of the trunk was 56cm, and the vertical height of the trunk platform and the internal roof was 128cm.
Fifth, the safety configuration test link
In the vehicle front and rear vision test, all seats in the car have been adjusted to the lowest state, and the measured data has some deviations from the normal use of the driver, for reference only.
In the test forward vision phase, we used a 70 cm high pile bucket as a reference and then adjusted the distance until the upper edge of the pile bucket was visible in the main driver's seat. After testing, the final measured data of the pile barrel and the front of the car was 312cm, which was in the average level of the same level and the performance was decent.
In the rear vision test, the pile bucket is still fixed and placed, and then the vehicle is moved until the upper edge of the pile bucket can be observed, and the measured distance is 1320cm.
When testing the field of view of the exterior mirror, the tester first asks the tester to stand at a vertical distance of 10m of the left and right rearview mirrors, and then begins to move to the left and right sides until it appears at the outermost edge of the rearview mirror on both sides, and the lateral distance is measured. Then, calculated by a formula, the angle angle of the mirror's field of view can be derived. The larger the angle, the smaller the blind area of the mirror field, and conversely, the larger the blind spot of the mirror field.
Although the rearview mirrors on both sides of the 2022 Guangqi Honda Odyssey Hybrid do not use a double curvature design, the rearview mirror area is large and the field of view can be observed to be excellent. The final test result was 25° on the left and 23° on the right, which was at the average level of the same level. In addition, it should be noted that due to the long body, more seats should be reserved when driving and connecting lines every day.
During the test, the reversing radar can sense the object behind it at 110cm, and the radar power performance is decent. In the test standard, the closer the continuous beeping stage is to 25cm, the closer it is to daily use habits. Judging from the measured data, the 2022 Odyssey Hybrid continuous beep prompt distance is 40cm, which is quite different from the test experience value, and more attention should be paid to observation during daily operation.
The front radar is different from the rear radar, divided into four stages of beeping, the farthest can sense the object in front of it at 100cm, and the maximum distance of the continuous beep stage is also 40cm, which is a large gap with the test experience value, which requires the driver to adapt slightly.
The 2022 Odyssey Hybrid is equipped with a 360-degree panoramic camera, and in actual experience, the camera resolution needs to be strengthened, but fortunately it is equipped with a reversing auxiliary line and supports follow-up steering, which is convenient for reversing into the warehouse. In addition, the left side of the central control screen is a reversing image, and a small piece on the right side is a panoramic image, of course, you can also adjust to a panoramic image.
The Extreme Edition models we tested are equipped with automatic parking and occupancy, and the driver can choose between side parking and side exit, greatly improving daily practicality.
In daily use, vehicles often encounter turning or U-turns, and the minimum turning radius of the vehicle is very important at this time. The minimum turning radius refers to the circular radius of the trajectory that rolls over the support plane in the center of the outer steering wheel when the steering wheel is turned to the limit position and the car is steering at the lowest stable speed. The smaller the turning radius, the better the maneuverability of the car. Know the minimum turning radius of your car, and know what to expect when the vehicle turns or makes a U-turn to avoid scratching and other situations. After actual measurement, the turning radius of the 2022 Odyssey Hybrid is 5.2m, which is lower than the average level of the same level.
The 2022 Odyssey Hybrid is equipped with an in-car handle above all four doors. The in-car handle is necessary for people with limited mobility, and it also has a certain auxiliary effect on the safety of passengers on bumpy roads.
Sixth, practical configuration highlights
Inductive side sliding doors
The 2022 Odyssey Hybrid is equipped with inductive side sliding doors for smooth and responsive operation. While improving the convenience of daily use, it also adds a sense of premium to the vehicle.
summary
Through testing, we can see that the 2022 Odyssey Hybrid has made some progress in terms of practicality compared with the old model, some details are more humane, and the new inductive sliding door not only enhances the sense of technology, but also improves the practicality. The front glove compartment has added storage space and USB port, making daily use more convenient. As a popular home MPV, I believe that such an upgrade is also what consumers are willing to see.
