If Odyssey 20 years ago subverted the domestic users' perception of home travel, then 20 years later, Odyssey once again took the lead in setting off a wave of home MPV market. The new Odyssey was launched at the end of December last year, and in just over a month, it received more than 10,000 orders. In the past 20 years of domestic popularity, Odyssey has maintained the industry's top product strength and exuded extraordinary charm in the domestic market.
Style evolves again
After completing the model modification, the new Odyssey is presented to the user with a new face. The three-dimensional front face shape is very much in line with the aesthetics of current consumers in terms of visual language. I personally prefer the high-quality headlights, using LED light sources and dynamic turn lights, adding a bit of technology. The side adjusted the body streamline, which can clearly see that the line from the A-pillar to the rear is smoother, and the visual effect of the whole scale is more dynamic.
Unlike other MPV models on the market, the cockpit of the new Odyssey shows a particularly good sense of fashion, the entire layout is divided into two by the through-channel air outlet, the top is the popular suspension central control screen and exquisite wood grain trim panels, and the bottom is some practical car control buttons and storage compartments. Rendered with a stylish cockpit atmosphere, the new Odyssey challenges the new generation of home travel, which is also the most important thing for family travel at present: travel should be as comfortable as at home.
Imagine that in our family gatherings or holiday travel scenarios, there are very few products that can meet the needs of elegant and calm travel. The new Odyssey really meets these elements, with a 2+2+3 seating layout and extra space that provides the possibility of a rest at any time for the success of the second row. The third row of seats can also be folded back, whether it is outdoor fishing or parking for viewing, this design will make people feel intimate.
In my opinion, the new Odyssey is not only rich in material design, but also deeply embeds this style into the user's life through some details to achieve life empowerment.
Ingenious comfort
Intimate details are everywhere, and wireless charging is essential for us who have long been accustomed to smart devices. In fact, we can also find some USB charging interfaces in the back row, and believe me, this is very helpful for alleviating family members' travel anxieties. The storage space can be said to be the best play of the Odyssey, the cup holder next to the steering wheel and the storage space in front of the co-driver can be seen that the Odyssey has actually considered the user's travel angle.
Some intelligent configuration is also the focus of the new Odyssey, Honda CONNECT 3.0 intelligent guidance interconnection system, with highly localized functions, including voice recognition, in-vehicle applications, OTA upgrades and other functions can be said to be perfectly in line with the current user's intelligent travel habits. More surprises are hidden in the details, such as the inductive opening of the double-sided sliding door, which is particularly prestigious; when we are holding some items, we can also easily open the trunk by kicking the sensing tailgate; the smart key has a pre-locking function, everything is just right and elegant.
Talking about this, it is not difficult to see that GUANGQI Honda has full sincerity to users, measured by the standard of home MPV, the new Odyssey has more than expected hard power. Although some competitors in the market want to imitate the performance of Odyssey, they always lack judgment on the pain points of user travel, and Odyssey is the only product that can "help users think through".
Precise grasp of the sense of premium
After talking about static performance, let's look at the driving texture of the Odyssey. The new Odyssey has not adjusted the powertrain, I think this may be related to the third generation of i-MMD hybrid system is still a very leading drive system in the market, a thermal efficiency of up to 40.6% of the 2.0L engine, with the motor can achieve a maximum power of 215ps, the transmission aspect of the E-CVT gearbox.
We have analyzed the third generation of i-MMD hybrid system many times before, this power system can be said to be the perfect solution for home travel, there will be no abrupt completion of the start to speed up, for some elderly who often get motion sickness, it can bring a comfortable and high-quality riding experience. This does not mean that the new Odyssey lacks explosive power, intelligent drive technology allows users to complete the acceleration smoothly and safely when they need to overtake, and the whole process is very smooth.
What's amazing is that the new Odyssey combines the comfort of a home MPV with the handling experience of a sedan, and its complete drive system gives the best solution for the current road conditions, even in the face of the complex road conditions of the suburban spring tour. This is also the sense of driving premium that we often refer to, which is perfectly presented on the third generation of the i-MMD hybrid system. And we don't have to pay extra travel costs for this, knowing that its fuel economy is also industry-leading.
Conclusion: All in all, whether it is an old owner who once owned the Odyssey or a new user who has come to visit, the new Odyssey gives a sincere answer sheet and boldly innovates in functionality to keep up with the times. Therefore, the fundamental reason that supports Odyssey's peers in the home MPV market is that the editors see the long-term value of GUANGQI Honda's use of technology to empower users' travel life.
