Guangzhou Odyssey

The relationship between cattle and humans is extremely close, especially in agricultural society, they are the most powerful assistant of mankind. Without the assistance of cattle, perhaps human society would not progress so fast. The ox moves slowly, but has perseverance and endurance to work. Therefore, people born in the year of the ox also have this characteristic. No matter what others say, or how difficult the surroundings are, he will do it step by step at his own pace without care, and in the end he will also Complete the task. Because they have already considered it slowly before doing it. Sometimes it takes longer to consider the action too slow. However, once the action is taken, it must be done without panting and tiredness.

Cows have the habit of "rumination". The food in the stomach takes a long time to chew repeatedly, over and over again, to make it completely digested, and never swallow it in a hurry, so the same is true for people born in the year of the ox. One thing will be repeated in the mind. Think about it over and over again, and make a decision only after you fully understand it. However, because of this, there will be too many concerns and problems in the business group, which makes others think that they think too much. However, once a decision is made, it will be carried forward courageously, any setbacks will be managed to overcome, and work hard. The idea of ​​inner decision will be deeply impressed in my mind. When encountering objective changes, or from temporary changes, market changes, I am less able to respond immediately. I always think that my decision is still correct, so I appear stubborn at this time. Fortunately, I can temporarily let go of my views at this time.

When a friend of the ox is choosing a car, the most suitable one should be the most solid and practical:

Guangzhou Odyssey belongs to the second generation of Honda Odyssey, with a generous and elegant appearance. Compared with the Guangzhou Accord, the front illumination is similar. The most significant difference is the headlamp. The Odyssey headlamp has a crystal clear glass in the middle of the headlamp to make the high beam cover. The front and rear surround bumpers are similar to the Guangzhou Accord. However, the Odyssey is inlaid with anti-scratch decorative strips on the four corners of the large enclosure, which is matched with the side decorative strips, which is both beautiful and practical. Unlike many other MPV cars, its doors are side-pull-opening doors for cars, rather than push-pull-opening doors for vans. Therefore Guangzhou Honda considers it to be a sedan rather than an MPV.

There are three rows of seats in the Guangzhou Odyssey, the first and second rows of seats are independent seats, and the third row of seats is a double seat. The second row of seats has a forward and backward sliding function, which can be moved forwards or backwards, and can also be folded forward. The third row of seats can be folded and stowed flat under the floor to make room for items. Although there are three rows of seats for 7 people, the second row of seats with 3 adults will feel more crowded. In fact, 6 adults are very suitable. It is a different matter for children.

The interior of the Guangzhou Odyssey is inlaid with wood grain panels on the center console, door armrests, door and window control panels, which have a sense of magnificence. At the same time, the seat and door interior fabrics are all made of velvet fabric. The seat fabric is flexible and the craftsmanship is quite good. It is slightly inadequate that the door interior fabric on the lower end of the window frame is also made of velvet fabric. Passengers often touch this when opening and closing the door with their hands. It is easy to get dirty due to hand sweat and other reasons. If the velvet fabric is soiled, it is not easy to remove dirt.

The shift lever position of the Guangzhou Odyssey is similar to that of the Picasso sedan, and it is also located on the dashboard. Moving the ground gear up to this position makes it easy for the driver to manipulate, and at the same time clears obstacles on the ground, making communication between passengers more convenient. In particular, the parking brake device is located on the lower left side in front of the driver's seat, just like Buick and other American cars. Therefore, from the point of view of the gear lever and the parking brake device, the Odyssey is also mixed with European and American blood, and it is not 100% traditional Japanese cars.

Guangzhou Odyssey is more about pursuing practicality and riding comfort. There is a cup holder device beside each row of seats. Fully automatic front and rear independent control of the air-conditioning system, the first row and second row of passengers can adjust the temperature and air volume, in which the adjustment control overhead panel is placed above the second row of seats, and passengers can reach with their hands. The third row only has air outlets. The rear air conditioner adopts a hidden design, no pipes can be seen except the air outlet, and the carriage appears simple and generous.

Perhaps from the cost aspect, there is no sunroof on the top of the car, and the audio uses a single-disc CD, but the adjustment of the rearview mirror and the opening and closing of the doors and windows are all electric. When parking, the rearview mirror will automatically fold, and when the ignition is on, the rearview mirror will automatically open again. An audio remote control button switch is set on the steering wheel, so the driver can control without leaving the steering wheel with both hands, which is very convenient.

The Guangzhou Odyssey’s engine uses the Accord sedan’s 2.3-liter inline 4-cylinder SOHC 16-valve VTEC EFI gasoline engine. As the net weight of the car is more than 200 kilograms heavier than the Accord sedan, and there are two more passengers, in comparison, the power performance is slightly worse than that of the Accord. The top speed of the Odyssey is 180 km/h, and the Guangzhou Accord is 190 km/h. However, because the Odyssey transmission uses a 4-speed electronically controlled manual and automatic integrated transmission, the transfer between gears is also quite smooth, and it can be used as a regular power performance. The so-called manual automatic integrated transmission is also an automatic transmission, but there are + and-positions on the D gear, which can simulate the feel and taste of the manual gear according to the situation. It is relatively economical to drive. It is reported that the fuel consumption of 100 kilometers of highway is only 8.4 liters, which is quite good.

The Guangzhou Odyssey chassis adopts a sedan-style chassis with independent front and rear suspension. Due to the low threshold design, the center of gravity is low, and the wide-sided tires make the driving more stable. However, due to the congenital problems of the Accord, the airtightness of the compartment is average, and there is a slight lack of sound insulation and noise reduction. When the high speed is reached (over 120 kilometers per hour), the engine noise, ground noise and wind noise are still obvious. ( Chinese Zodiac http:///shengxiao/)

The passive safety features of the Guangzhou Odyssey include dual front seat airbags, three-point seat belts, head-collision cushioning materials for the roof and pillars, and impact-absorbing pads inside the doors. The front end of the car body adopts a collision deformation energy absorption zone, and a buffer structure is adopted around the hood to disperse and buffer the collision force. In the crash test, a frontal collision of 55 km/h, a dislocation frontal collision of 64 km/h, a side collision of 55 km/h, and a rear collision of 50 km/h all met the safety standards. In terms of active safety, the standard configuration includes a 4-wheel anti-lock braking system with electronic brake force distribution (EBD), high-position brake lights, etc. As a new product of Guangzhou Honda, Guangzhou Odyssey's emission level has reached Euro II standard.
