3.5LV6 large self-priming, built-in VCM cylinder change technology, this Honda crossover is really fun to drive

Today we are talking about a niche model of Honda. The top model of this car once sold for 420,000. It can be said to be a real high-end luxury model of Honda. It combines the space of an MPV, the passability of an SUV, and the comfort of a car. It is almost the first crossover model in the domestic market. However, this model was not successfully recognized by the market and was discontinued in 2016.

That’s right, it’s the Honda Geshitu!

Although new cars have not been successful, used cars are very popular with some people who understand them. In the second-hand car market, there are not many copies of Geshitu, and the value retention rate is very low compared to Honda models. But after all, it is a Honda product that focused on the high-end market at that time, so the quality of the vehicle is still very good. Whether it is in terms of power performance or the personality and luxury of the exterior and interior, the Geshitu is a very good car. . Therefore, for second-hand cars, the price-performance ratio is very high. If you buy a Geshitu in good condition, it must be a good choice.

There once was an "island bomb" from Qinghai who originally came to us through Taobao Dazhong. However, he happened to see a 2.4L song and poem picture posted by Hu Dada on his WeChat account and immediately decided not to go through Dazhong. Wei accepted it, and finally successfully purchased this 2.4L Geshitu.

Today's "Island Bomb" is in a similar situation. He originally wanted to buy an Infiniti Q70L from us, but later a 3.5L Geshitu was added to the alternative model.

Since there are not many sources of this car, after unremitting efforts, we finally found two 3.5L Geshitu. The first one is the 2011 3.5L flagship version recommended by the merchant. The merchant said: "This car left the factory in July 2013 and was registered in August 2014. It has traveled 104,000 kilometers. The appearance of the whole car is slightly painted, which does not affect the appearance. There are no accidents, no flooding or fire, and the engine and gearbox are in normal working condition. The interior is clean and the overall condition is good. The price is 129,000.”

The other one was found by our car shopping consultant. It is a 2011 3.5L premium version, manufactured in 2013 and registered in June 2014. 102,000 kilometers, bumper and right rear door have sheet metal touch-up paint. A large-screen navigation and reversing image are installed, and the overall vehicle condition is in good condition. Price: 128,000!

This "Dao Dan" is an old customer of ours in Zhengzhou who has bought three cars, so he trusts us very much. "Dao Dan" compared the two cars and asked us to recheck them. The first.

After re-inspection, it was discovered that this flagship Gesitu engine had been dismantled and repaired, and the mileage analysis based on the interior should not be correct. So we directly suggested that "Island Bomb" give up and turn the target to the second premium version of Ge Shitu.

After re-inspection, in terms of appearance, only the bumper and the right rear door of this 3.5L premium version of Ge Shitu have touch-up paint on the sheet metal, and there are some scratches. All four tires are from 2017.

When inspecting the engine, it was found that the engine intake manifold was disassembled and assembled, but the engine gearbox showed no signs of disassembly and repair. The hydraulic support rod of the engine cover is now a bit loose and will need to be replaced later. This is considered a minor issue. question.

When inspecting the chassis, it was found that there was some oil leakage from the right half shaft oil seal, which did not affect use.

The test drive experience can only be described in one word, that is "refreshing"! The 3.5LV6 is really not a boast. The maximum power of 206 kilowatts and the maximum torque of 339 Nm can provide the car with a steady stream of power. Acceleration is very powerful and shifting is very smooth.

In addition, with automatic VCM cylinder change technology, the transition between 3-cylinder, 4-cylinder, and 6-cylinder working modes will be automatically completed without the driver noticing, achieving low fuel consumption and high power. A perfect combination, I think it is quite appropriate to call it an intelligent heart.

The re-inspection results were very satisfactory. "Dao Dan" readily paid the balance in cash and entrusted us to handle the transfer procedures.

Comprehensive maintenance will be done before handing over the car.

After all preparations were completed, Hu Dada personally delivered the car to the "Island Bomb".

The car hunting task of this song poem picture has been successfully completed. However, the editor would like to discuss a few more words with you about this very individual model.

For those who like it, the Geshitu looks elegant and individual. It is a leisure sedan developed based on the Accord platform, between a four-door sedan and a five-door station wagon. The Geshitu's space and convenience are close to those of a station wagon, and its interior and configuration are close to those of a luxury car. The fastback design and plump tail give it a vague air of a fastback sports car.

But for people who don’t like this car, they think Geshitu is “unlike” and find its nondescript appearance annoying.

What do you think of this crossover model, the Honda Geshitu, which is full of personality?
