Honda Stream Facelift

[Carbon82]

Not fast, it is typical for a Japanese car with an average of 5 years cycle life. The 2nd generation Stream was launched in Japan on 13/07/2006, which is about 3 years ago.

I have pass 2years 3 mth on my RSZ . Time flies

Maybe paving path for facelift improvement? Just like Honda always like to keep LED taillight and sportier bumper for facelift... ;)

 

Maybe, Freed need a better finishing.

Want to hear from a M5 onwer, how do you find access to the 3rd row for M5 and Freed? I have tried once on M5 and Freed and find the later a little better, probably due to different in head room clearance.

 

Can not really recall for the Freed, but for Mazda 5, if middle seat is removed, it is still slightly narrow for adult to move to the 3rd row due to the way the backrest of the middle seat was fold in between 2 seats.

Can't really tell the difference between this facelift model and the current one... If any, thought the current one looks nicer!!

Picture speak a thousand words...

 

Interior Dimension of Freed

 

 

For your info and comparison, interior height of Stream is 1,250mm, while that of the one size larger Toyota Estima is 1,255mm. Furthermore, Freed has captain seat on 2nd row, which create a small clearance for walk through to 3rd row... ;)

 

i see... i think u meant "move effortlessly" la.. that i agree. "Walk effortlessly" is still a bit too far fetched for me. Anyway, Freed seems nice overall.

Yah, the positioning of the backrest is relatively lager and those with bigger tummy will have problem... and the head room between the 2nd and last row of M5 is also not high enough, from what I can recall. But, it does have a wider 2nd row (than Freed).

I thought the changes is quite obvious, at least more prominent than the Civic facelift? Differences, which can be spotted from the pictures includes:

 

 

Bumpers, Grill, Tail Light, Wing Mirror, Rim

 

[Carbon82]

As for the new RST grade / trim, it has type R style rear bumper, body kits (including roof spolier) and a mes type grill.

Still prefer the existing RSZ styling, but RST have nice tail light and rear bumper . Can fit on pre facelift Stream?

Nothing is impossible as long as one is prepared to pay...

Rummored to have minor tweak to the engine to make it more fuel efficient.

Have not seen the f/l Stream but saw, touch and sit in the latest Wish today.

 

Again, the 2nd row seat is not comfortable, maybe even worst than Stream
