Lala81 Hypersonic November 4, 2013 Share November 4, 2013 It has everything that I want and need. It's a full sized MPV, with sliding doors, push start, keyless entry, Japanese car (which in my opinion is more reliable and easier to maintain compared to a continental make). The cloest to my requirements is the Estima, but that really drives like a lorry. I hope this new odyssey is as nice to drive as the current model, which drives like a normal saloon. The reason why it drives like a saloon is cos it was lower than most other MPVs mah. I think it will handle the same as the other MPVs now. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, that is not the case. Have to test drive the car when its here. The only thing is I am not sure if Kah Motors will be bringing in the tomyam one or the Made in Japan version.

Silklee 3rd Gear November 5, 2013 Share November 5, 2013 (edited) Does anyone know if the current model of odyssey sold by Kah Motors is Thai or Jap made? Edited November 5, 2013 by Silklee Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carbon82 Moderator November 5, 2013 Share November 5, 2013 (edited) Does anyone know if the current model of odyssey sold by Kah Motors is Thai or Jap made?The one sold by KM is from Japan. If I am not wrong, the Asian Odyssey is assembled in either Japan or China, none from Thailand. Edited November 5, 2013 by Carbon82 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cloest to my requirements is the Estima, but that really drives like a lorry. I hope this new odyssey is as nice to drive as the current model, which drives like a normal saloon. The new Odyssey has almost the same spec as the current Estima, i.e. dimensions, horsepower, CVT transmission, etc. so I would expect similar performance in a nutshell. The differences would be the actual handling and noise insulation... And also depending if KM will bring in the real Absolute model (with 190 ps). 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carbon82 Moderator November 5, 2013 Share November 5, 2013 Horsepower: 175ps / 6,200rpm (B, G, G EX), 190ps / 6,400rpm (Absolute & Absolute EX) Torque: 225Nm / 4,000rpm (B, G, G EX), 1237Nm / 4,000rpm (Absolute & Absolute EX) Sorry, type too fast. Torque should be 237 Nm. No way can a NA engine generate a 4 digits torque figure. Paisei... :p 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lala81 Hypersonic November 5, 2013 Share November 5, 2013 Yeah. Unfortunately i'm not a big fan of CVT transmissions But all the big MPVs are going CVT route. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damon-_- 1st Gear November 5, 2013 Share November 5, 2013 Got an SMS from the Honda salesman Current pricing $197900 for Ex model (8-seater) $207900 for Exv model (7-seater) COE rebate at $87,000 Early bird discount : $5,000 Car available for viewing in the showroom in Dec'13. Earliest expected first batch delivery around Mar'14. Based on EXV selling at $207900, it makes more sense to get an estima. One of friend just got the Latest premium edition estima aeras for $187k. $20'000 is quite a big difference IMO. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
