What are the differences between Honda Guan Dao and URV?
2 Answers
The differences between Honda Guan Dao and URV: 1. Body dimensions. The URV excels in body length and height compared to the Guan Dao, making it appear more elongated and taller. 2. Exterior design. The URV features a new front face design, with extensive chrome accents and robust lines, giving the vehicle a more imposing and composed appearance. In contrast, the Guan Dao's exterior design is more refined and sporty, with softer design lines. Below is the relevant introduction: The Honda URV and Guan Dao are not the same car. Both the Guan Dao and URV are products under the Honda brand, but the Honda Guan Dao belongs to GAC Honda, while the URV belongs to Dongfeng Honda. The URV and Guan Dao maintain over 98% consistency in body structure, powertrain, and technological configurations.
I've been driving the Honda Avancier for a year now and have test-driven the URV several times. The biggest difference lies in their exterior design. The Avancier's front fascia has a more stable, boxy feel, which suits someone like me who's 35 with kids. The URV's front end is noticeably more streamlined, with sharper headlights, giving it a sportier, younger vibe. Both have equally spacious interiors, with rear seats that offer ample legroom, though the URV's seats are slightly softer, possibly offering better support. Performance-wise, they're identical—both equipped with a 2.0T engine, making city overtaking effortless. However, my wife prefers the Avancier's trunk layout for easier stroller storage. Given the same budget, I'd choose the Avancier because its parts and service network under Guangqi Honda is more extensive, making maintenance more convenient. Fuel consumption is similar, averaging around 10L/100km, and regular maintenance costs aren't significantly higher. After all, for a family SUV, safety comes first.
