Chapter 176: Odyssey

When they got closer, the two stood in front of the front of the car, and before starting the introduction, Fang Yuan solemnly confirmed to Wan Changming again: "Are you sure you will change cars in the future?"

"Why do you ask this?" Wan Changming didn't answer, but was curious why Fang Yuan was entangled in this seemingly inconsequential question.

"It's about whether or not you'll lose money in the future. ”

Fang Yuan explained that those models with low value retention rate are suitable for long-term ownership.

For example, Mitsubishi Outlander, front-mounted four-wheel drive, can be light off-road is also suitable for family use, durable leather is not easy to break, low maintenance and repair costs, is a very good car, the only drawback is that the value retention rate is too low.

Zhenghong Auto Dealer has a 2019 2.4L four-wheel drive Zhixiang Edition, this is a seven-seater model, the new car included 215,800 taxes that year, or 2019-04-04, that is, this car is less than a year old, and the mileage of thousands of kilometers is a quasi-new car, and now it is only sold for 180,000.

It is equivalent to the original owner wasting time and energy to help the second-hand car buyer complete all the procedures, and then when the fortune boy changed hands and gave away more than 30,000 yuan in vain.

This is unimaginable for Toyota and Honda.

Therefore, a model with a low value retention rate like Mitsubishi Outlander is most suitable for buying a second-hand car for long-term holding, and it is best not to sell it after buying a car, otherwise, it will lose a lot of money.

The Honda Odyssey 2014 2.4L luxury version introduced by Fang Yuan to Wan Changming is now priced at 150,000 yuan, which is 30,000 Huaxia coins different from the 180,000 Mitsubishi Outlander just mentioned.

But you must know that this Honda Odyssey was licensed in March 2015, and it is now five years old, with a mileage of 100,000 kilometers, no four-wheel drive off-road function, and the chassis is so low that it can't go on non-paved roads and can't go out on waves.

Therefore, the value retention rate of the Honda Odyssey is very high, and to a certain extent, buying a new car is more cost-effective than buying a used car.

If Wan Changming didn't want to change the car after a few years, Fang Yuan didn't recommend him to buy it at all, but would give him a model suitable for long-term holding.

"I see. Wan Changming completely understood what Fang Yuan meant, if he would change the car in a few years, it would be very cost-effective to buy a model with a high value retention rate, because he would lose less when he sold the car and avoid a certain degree of loss.

Wan Changming was very satisfied with Fang Yuan's consideration of himself, people's hearts are long, he smiled gratefully at the young man in front of him, and said seriously: "My car purchase budget is 150,000, I think the model you introduced to me is very much in line with my needs, no need to change." ”

Wan Congming finally said what was in his heart, Fang Yuan knew that he had almost trusted him, and began to officially introduce him to this Honda Odyssey.

Odyssey is an MPV created by Honda, it and Buick GL8 one is the handle in the household field, one is the most capable in the business field, the two almost swept their respective spheres of influence, very sought after by the Chinese people.

Compared with the huge sales of the Honda Odyssey, the appearance of the old Honda Odyssey is not stunning, and even a little low-key, after all, it takes the family route.

This Honda Odyssey belongs to the 2015 model year, with a length, width and height of 4830 mm, 1805 mm, 1695 mm, and a wheelbase of 2900 mm.

The 2020 390T premium version of the Trumpchi GM8 with a manufacturer's guide price of 192,800 yuan, its length, width and height have reached 5066 mm, 1884 mm, 1822 mm, and a wheelbase of 3000 mm.

Even if it is also a Japanese brand, the Mazda8 2015 2015 2.5L Elite Edition, which is priced at 219,800 yuan, has a length, width and height of 4860 mm, 1852 mm, 1685 mm, and a wheelbase of 2950 mm.

So among the same competitors, the 2015 Honda Odyssey can be said to be the smallest in size.

The Odyssey is not only short and short, its minimum ground clearance is only 126 mm, which is destined to not be able to go to the wild at the same time, the body appears low and slender, and the whole car line is rounded and transitioned, there are no sharp edges and corners, and there is no exaggerated waistline.

In addition, the family-style grille of the front face of the Odyssey has a slender shape, and a large area of chrome decoration is shiny, creating a layered visual effect, which also echoes the slender body.

The xenon headlights on both sides are connected to the grille, and the two are integrated into one, giving it a slightly sporty look.

Therefore, this 2015 old Odyssey gives Fang Yuan the feeling that she is a little girl next door who is petite and thin, with an ordinary appearance, and there is nothing amazing after seeing it, and she does not have the luxurious and noble aura of Buick GL8 at all, after all, the positioning of the two is different, and there is no comparison at all.

Wan Changming completely agreed with Fang Yuan's comments on the appearance of this old Odyssey, he didn't think it was ugly, nor did he think it was beautiful, it was a very ordinary, very homely design, the kind that no one would deliberately look at in the sea of cars.

After seeing the unremarkable appearance, Fang Yuan opened the main driver's door.

Wan Changming took two quick steps closer, his gaze swept from front to back.

To Wan Changming's surprise, he did not feel that the interior space of the small Odyssey was cramped, on the contrary, he thought that he could sit everyone in the house.

Hearing Wan Changming say his thoughts, Fang Yuan smiled and pointed to the back of the third row of seats: "That's where the Honda chicken thief is." ”

After looking in the direction of Fang Yuan's finger for a while, Wan Changming knew what was going on, it turned out that the third row of seats was very close to the back door, so the rear space was compressed as much as possible, and of course the middle seemed spacious.

"Cunning and cunning. Wan Changming couldn't laugh or cry, and he didn't know whether to applaud Honda's cleverness or scold them for playing tricks.

But Wan Changming suddenly had a question in his heart, and looked at Fang Yuan with a confused expression: "In this way, the interior space is spacious, but how can I put the stroller?"

"Come, look. ”

With Fang Yuan's operation, the back door opened, and Wan Changming shouted with some excitement: "It's actually electric?"

"Yes, electric side sliding doors on both sides. After Fang Yuan said the benefits of the side sliding door, he told Wan Changming that with the small ground clearance of this Odyssey, it is very convenient for the elderly and children to get on and off the car without having to climb up with difficulty, which is also one of the reasons why Fang Yuan introduced MPV and did not recommend station wagons.

"Not bad, not bad. Wan Changming was very happy that the side sliding door could be convenient for the elderly and children after understanding that the side sliding door had such a big benefit.

Look at this chair again. Fang Yuan patted the seats in the second row and motioned for Wan Changming to sit down and give it a try.

The second-row seats of ordinary models generally have three positions, but this Odyssey has only two, and with the leather material, it looks wide and magnificent.

Wan Changming is not tall, because it is a side sliding door, the ground clearance is small, and he can easily lift his legs and enter the car.

When he sat on the wide seat, Wan Changming felt very soft, and his whole body seemed to be deeply immersed in it, which was very comfortable.

Wan Changming smiled and felt very satisfied.

Fang Yuan stretched out his hand to support the leg drag under the seat, adjusted the headrest upwards to support Wan Changming's neck, and adjusted the seat again.

In this way, the backrest of the seat leaned back, and Wan Changming also changed from sitting to a semi-lying position.

"Hahaha. Wan Changming's smile was even brighter, his legs and cervical spine were very comfortable, sitting on this wide independent seat, there was a feeling of first-class on an airplane, and he believed that his parents would also like this feeling, he would not feel tired during the long journey, and he could rest well.
