What are the differences between the Odyssey and Elysion?

[OCharles]

The main differences between the Elysion and Odyssey are: 1. Body dimensions. The Odyssey has body dimensions of 484718201702mm, while the Elysion measures 495018421711mm. 2. Performance. The Odyssey's fastest 0-100 km/h acceleration time is 9.28 seconds, with a fuel consumption of 5.8L per 100 km, and a 100-0 km braking distance of 43.3 meters. The Elysion's fastest 0-100 km/h acceleration time is 9.1 seconds, with a fuel consumption of 6.4L per 100 km, and a 100-0 km braking distance of 38.52 meters. 3. Tire specifications. The Odyssey uses 215/60-R17 tires front and rear, while the Elysion is equipped with 225/50-R18 tires front and rear.

I recently researched MPVs and finally understood these two models. Simply put, the Odyssey is from GAC Honda, while the Elysion is from Dongfeng Honda—they're essentially sister models. Exterior-wise, the Elysion has a more business-oriented style, with its large chrome grille resembling a suit, while the Odyssey's front end is sleeker and sportier. Inside, the Elysion's second-row seats are more plush, featuring leg rests and heating, making it ideal for impressing clients. The Odyssey, on the other hand, offers more flexible rear seating and a completely flat floor, which is convenient for families hauling strollers. There's a significant price difference: the Odyssey starts at 230,000 RMB, while the Elysion begins at 290,000 RMB. However, the Elysion does have better sound insulation, making highway drives quieter. For personal family use, I'd choose the Odyssey hybrid—it's quite fuel-efficient at just over 5L per 100km.

These two cars are essentially built on the same platform, with differences mainly in the details. The Elysion comes standard with magic-sensing doors across all trims—just wave your hand to open them, while the Odyssey only offers this feature in its top trim. During my last test drive, I noticed the Elysion's softer suspension made it more comfortable over speed bumps, whereas the Odyssey's firmer suspension provided better stability in turns. The Elysion features more wood-grain interior trim, while the Odyssey uses more piano black finishes. Space is virtually identical, but the Elysion's mid-trim includes a small foldable table, making it convenient for kids to snack on the go. If your budget allows, I’d recommend the Elysion Hybrid—its hybrid system delivers smooth performance and low fuel consumption, making long trips much easier on the back.

Just accompanied a friend to test drive these two models. The Elysion has a full-width chrome strip on the front bumper, while the Odyssey features a black honeycomb grille. There's a significant gap in configurations—the mid-trim Elysion comes standard with dual power sliding doors and LED headlights, whereas the base-trim Odyssey requires these as optional extras. The steering wheel feels heavier in the Elysion, while the Odyssey offers lighter and more agile handling. The second-row seats in the Elysion can be adjusted laterally, whereas the Odyssey only allows fore-and-aft movement. My friend ultimately chose the Elysion, favoring its rear independent air conditioning and air purifier.

I used to drive the old Odyssey and now drive the Elysion. The most noticeable difference is the 8 cm size gap, requiring more caution when parking the Elysion. In terms of fuel consumption, the 2.0 hybrid Odyssey shows 5.9L on the display, while the Elysion with the same powertrain shows 6.8L. Their infotainment systems are similar, but the Elysion has better audio quality. The Elysion has an extra layer of soundproofing material under the chassis. For family use, I recommend the Odyssey—the magic-sensing doors aren’t used much, and saving the money for fuel is a better choice.

From the car enthusiasts' group, here are the differences between these two models: The Elysion comes standard with 18-inch wheels and Michelin tires, while the Odyssey base model has 17-inch wheels. The headlight designs differ, with the Elysion's daytime running lights positioned on the brow of the headlight. In the used car market, the Odyssey holds its value better, with a price difference of 20,000 yuan for five-year-old vehicles. The third-row space is identical, but the Elysion has a higher cargo partition when the seats are folded down. The most crucial point is that the hybrid Odyssey has a 40-liter fuel tank, whereas the Elysion's 50-liter tank offers an additional 100 kilometers of range. Choose based on your needs.
