Where is the start-stop switch for the Honda Elysion?
2 Answers
The start-stop switch for the Elysion is located on the lower left control panel, marked with the A-OFF symbol. The advantages and disadvantages of the engine auto start-stop function are as follows: 1. Advantages: It can reduce unnecessary fuel consumption, lower emissions, and improve fuel economy. In urban traffic, when waiting for traffic lights or in traffic jams, it can minimize the engine idle time. Additionally, when the engine is turned off, its power can replace the belt pulley to provide operating power for the engine cooling fan and the car's air conditioning system. 2. Disadvantages: It requires more durable starters and batteries. Standard starter designs allow for high working currents but for very short durations. Repeated use of the starter can easily cause overheating and damage. Therefore, starters with auto start-stop functionality must be much more durable than regular starters. At the same time, due to the increased number of battery charge and discharge cycles, there is also a certain impact on battery life.
As a long-time Honda Elysion driver, I remember the location of the auto start-stop switch very clearly. It's on the small console to the left of the steering wheel - a round button with the start-stop symbol that toggles the system with a light press. The system is quite convenient for saving fuel during traffic jams, but it gets annoying when engines repeatedly restart at frequent red lights, so I often turn it off manually. I recommend new owners check the manual's location diagram as positions may vary by model year (e.g., post-2018 versions moved near the center console). Just adjust your pre-driving habits - no need to worry about affecting the car, just develop good operational rhythms.
