Mid size MPV honda odyssey

Unlike many other mid term facelift models that only undergo "micro reshaping", the new Odyssey Electric Car can be described as having a facelift on the entire front end, with a more rugged and square silhouette. From the side, it is evident that it has become much heavier. With the integration of SUV elements, it can be understood as more domineering, but I think it has a stronger business atmosphere compared to the old model.

The tail modification is also not small. The tail lights are closer to the sister car Honda Alison, increasing in area. When lit, they also appear simple and high-end, abandoning the sedan like design and matching the front of the car. The overall appearance modification is strong, and it allows users to easily distinguish between new and old models.

Electric side sliding doors are not a new thing, but in the new Odyssey Electric MPV Car, they also support gesture control. Simply cover the blue light with your hand, and with a gentle wave after the light bar is full, you can control the door opening and closing. The entire process takes about two seconds, and the recognition rate is high. The palm does not need to touch the car body throughout the entire process, avoiding the embarrassment of getting wet or dirtying the palm. It is cool and practical.

For models such as MPVs that focus on functionality and practicality, the appearance is almost sufficient, so this article will focus on the parts that users prefer to see.

The criticized driving quality of the old model has made rapid progress in the new Odyssey Electric MPV Car. Compared to the soft and thin chassis of the old model, it can be clearly felt that the new car has become harder and tighter. When the tires run over large pits, the body bounce is better suppressed, subjectively almost identical to the appearance of the new Accord.

When passing through continuously damaged roads, due to the harder initial shock absorption, the road feel is clearer than the old model. To be honest, when facing the impact of large potholes, passengers still feel bumpy, but the texture is not lacking. I guess the engineer has put a lot of effort into the subframe or suspension liner. Overall, although the new Odyssey's shock-absorbing and comfort ratings have not reached high ratings, the progress compared to its predecessors is obvious.

At first, I was also wondering if the new suspension was more sturdy, would it be suitable for an MPV? Later, after experiencing various road conditions, I found that although I still hoped it could be a bit softer in my heart, the current setting is completely reasonable, because combined with the rapid power response of the hybrid system and the relatively fast steering ratio, if the chassis is still soft, I am afraid I will feel carsick when driving.

If I remember correctly, the steering calibration of the new Odyssey is more convenient than the old model, with greater damping and a heavier feel. It is even a relatively heavy steering set that I have recently driven. Fortunately, this is a textured 'sink', for example, it feels a bit like the hydraulic assistance of an old BMW, and I personally like it very much.

Although this steering system blocks most of the road feel, the damping gain is very linear, and the feel of returning to the timing is also very natural. Coupled with a faster ratio, it is easy to arouse the desire to drive. Of course, there is not much joy in handling, but such an easy to handle MPV is rare!
