What color is the license plate of the Odyssey Hybrid?
2 Answers
Odyssey Hybrid has a blue license plate, as it is a hybrid electric vehicle. The Odyssey is a hybrid electric MPV under GAC Honda, with body dimensions of 4847mm in length, 1820mm in width, and 1702mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2900mm. The Odyssey is equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, with an L-type cylinder arrangement, a maximum power of 107 kilowatts, and is paired with an electronic continuously variable transmission. Its suspension system features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension, with front-wheel drive and electric power steering.
My Odyssey Hybrid is a practical family car, and as for the license plate color, it's blue, just like most regular vehicles. Although this hybrid version saves a lot on fuel, under China's policies, it doesn't qualify as a new energy vehicle type, so it doesn't get the green license plate. New energy vehicles like pure electric or plug-in hybrids are eligible for green plates, while the Odyssey Hybrid doesn't plug in or charge externally—it relies solely on its self-charging system, so it's classified as a traditional vehicle under the policy. I specifically asked the salesperson when buying the car to confirm it wasn't eligible for a green plate. Still, it's fuel-efficient and quiet to drive, and the blue plate is low-key and convenient. If you're considering an eco-friendly car, this powertrain is highly efficient and energy-saving, but the license plate color still depends on policy—don't get the wrong idea.
