Is the Avancier a Global Model?

[DiFinn]

Honda Avancier is a China-specific model and is not sold globally. The Avancier is the flagship model of GAC Honda, with a notably large body. It was first launched in China and has not yet been introduced in other countries. The design of the Avancier draws inspiration from the overall design elements of the earlier Honda CONCEPT-D concept car. The interior style of the Avancier is quite rare among recent Honda models, featuring extensive use of soft materials and leather, large wood grain panels, and chrome accents. The floating central touchscreen and multifunctional steering wheel maintain a strong sense of technology. The Avancier is equipped with two powertrain options: a 1.5T+CVT (max power 193 hp, peak torque 243 N·m) and a 2.0T+ZF 9AT (max power 272 hp, peak torque 370 N·m). Comparatively, the pairing of the ZF 9AT with the 2.0T engine is slightly less refined, and the overall smoothness of the powertrain is not as good as that of the 1.5T model. Both powertrains are equipped with an automatic start-stop system to improve fuel efficiency.
