What are the differences between Honda URV and GuanDao?
2 Answers
The differences between Honda URV and GuanDao are: 1. Different appearance: Honda URV features an open-eye design with three parallel chrome strips of different colors and styles decorating the grille; GuanDao adopts LED headlight clusters and uses thick, three-dimensional chrome strips to decorate the grille, with a polygonal design for the lower air intake. 2. Different interior design: Honda URV has a wider center console armrest for better comfort; GuanDao's center console armrest is slimmer. 3. Different body dimensions: Honda URV measures 4825 mm in length, 1942 mm in width, 1670 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2820 mm; GuanDao measures 4816 mm in length, 1942 mm in width, 1669 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2820 mm.
These two cars are actually siblings, sharing the same chassis, engine, and transmission! The driving experience is almost identical. The main differences lie in the exterior design: the UR-V features a full-width taillight design paired with a large grille, giving it a more youthful and sporty look; while the Crown (Guandao) adopts a more traditional approach with a layered front grille design and sharper lines. The UR-V also offers more detailed configurations—for example, the 1.5T high-end model comes with seat heating, whereas the Crown requires an additional payment for this feature. Having driven the Crown for three years, if I were to choose now, I might go for the UR-V—not for anything else, but simply for its sleek taillights with sequential turn signals, which look incredibly stylish and add a great sense of ceremony when unlocking the car at night.
