A family of six, usually traveling occasionally in urban areas, should we choose Odyssey, GL8 or 7 Highlanders?

go on road trip car is considered for home use, and MPV is recommended for a family of six. A seven-seat SUV is not even a chicken rib, at best, it is an emergency.

The seven seats of an SUV need at least a D-class car when it comes to excellent driving experience, and the space level of a D-class SUV is only equivalent to a medium-sized MPV;; Vehicle design determines that the engine compartment of SUV takes up a considerable proportion, and the length actually left for the passenger compartment is quite unsatisfactory.

Highlander has a body size of 4,89 * 1,925 * 1,72 and a wheelbase of 279mm, which seems to be close to 4.9 meters. In fact, the maximum depth inside is only about 3.1 meters. If the width of the trunk and the seat itself is removed, the rear row is bound to shrink due to the ample leg space in the middle row. In order to increase the space in the third row, the seat can only be made smaller and thinner, and the wrapping is very general. And the convenience of 2+3+2 seat layout is also very poor. Entering the third row requires moving the independent seats in the middle row, and entering can be described as climbing.

The new GL8 has a body size of 523*1878*1811 and a wheelbase of 388mm, and the shape of a 5.2-meter-long car is mostly in the passenger compartment, with an average extra leg space of 1 cm in the middle and rear rows, and the middle and rear seats are still normal seats, so the seats are well wrapped and you won't feel tired when you ride for a long time. The 2+2+3 seat layout not only has a good driving experience in the middle row, but also makes it convenient to reserve passages to enter and exit the third row.

Therefore, although SUV and MPV are both seven seats, the former is only for emergency and the latter is for comfort, and the concepts are completely different.

As for Highlander, a car used in go on road trip, as an SUV, it should have some advantages in getting rid of difficulties. However, the timely four-wheel drive system of this car has no inter-wheel slip restriction, and the braking force of ESP electronic slip restriction is almost nonexistent. It can be said that the ability to get rid of difficulties is better than that of two-wheel drive, and it can't walk in more complicated road conditions. The ordinary road driving technology is better, and two-wheel drive can also pass.

GL8 is recommended for comparison between two cars, and GL8 is recommended for comparison with Odyssey.

The guide price of Odyssey is 22.98-354,8 yuan, the body size is 4845*182*1697, and the wheelbase is 29 mm. It is compact in MPV, and the suspension structure is front McPherson and rear torsion beam, so the vehicle level is not high. The key point is that the engine uses 2.4L natural suction and CVT for gearbox. The Odyssey with this power transmission combination seems to be a Japanese Baojun 73 if there is no automatic door.

the new guide price of gl8 is 25.29-444,9 yuan, and the dimensions are not detailed here. We only talk about the engine. The maximum power of the LTG·2.T turbocharged engine is 191kw, and the peak torque is 35 N m (2-5 rpm), which matches the 6AT automatic manual transmission, and it can break through for 9 seconds. As a performance benchmark of MPV, abundant power can make this car with no driving pleasure have some passion. Secondly, this engine has reached the national VI standard, and the Odyssey is still the national five.

There is no need to struggle with the choice. It is unreasonable that the self-priming engine does not have V6 in a car with a price close to 3, yuan. It is obviously unreasonable that a car with a price of more than 2, yuan still uses CVT. The opponent is too weak, so GL8 is recommended. Personal suggestion, for reference only.

I know all these three cars very well. My company car Buick, my Highlander Four Luxury, and my brother-in-law have an Odyssey!

In fact, mpv is really not that easy to use, with high cost but low practicability, because most people buy a car mainly to pick up a child from work, and it is really rare for six people to go out and do something together.

Now with the increase of families with two children, there are more and more families of six, and many people's family composition has become "2+2+2", that is, husband and wife plus two children and two. At this time, consumers' demand for space for vehicles will be higher and higher. Some people will choose to buy a 7-seat SUV, while others will choose an MPV model. How should they choose among Toyota Highlander, Honda Odyssey and Buick GL8? Let's talk about this problem today.

Is it better to choose an SUV or an MPV?

For families with many family members, choosing a seven-seat SUV or an MPV is a cliche, because many people will think that if I drive an MPV to work, I will definitely be laughed at by my colleagues as a driver, and maybe I will be rubbed by others, and it will be quite embarrassing if I can't refuse. Moreover, it is really difficult for MPV to attract people's interest, which is where many consumers who should have chosen MPV models are entangled.

however, it's a struggle, and you still have to make a choice when you make a choice. Why do you say that? It's because MPV models are very different from 7-seat SUV models. In essence, the seven-seat SUV model is just an emergency product, because almost all the seven SUV models we see in the domestic market are "2+3+2" layout, that is, the second row has three seats, so passengers in the third row must put down the second row if they need to get on and off. In other words, if you are full in the second row, it is inconvenient to get in and out of the car in the third row, but it is not full in the second row.

therefore, in the case that there are five or even six people in the family, choosing MPV must have an advantage over choosing 7-seat SUV at this time. Even if the space is as big as Highlander, its third row seats can only meet the occasional short-distance emergency needs, and it is inconvenient to use, so we do not recommend those friends who really need 7 seats to choose Highlander.

Does the bigger the space, the better?

So many people will follow the train of thought we just had and say, Is it true that the bigger the car, the better for a family with a large population? In fact, this is not the case. For example, the Odyssey and Buick GL8, the length of the Odyssey is less than 4.9 meters, while the length of the GL8 has exceeded 5.2 meters. It seems that the two cars have been worse by one level, and the space of the GL8 should be bigger than that of the Odyssey, but for home use, the GL8 is not a good choice, for nothing else, that is, the GL8 is really too big. Too large a body will make it inconvenient for this GL8 to travel in the urban area, and it will not be so easy to park in some less affluent parking lots. It is even more painful to meet cars on narrow urban roads, so GL8 is actually not suitable for home use.

Of course, there is another reason why the GL8 is not suitable for home use. We know that there is no harm without comparison, so are people, and so are cars, because the Honda Odyssey is so suitable for home use. Although the length of the car is only 4.8 meters, the actual space in the car of the Odyssey is not worse than that of the GL8, and the third row of the Odyssey is a magic seat, which can be completely put down and put under the floor when not in use. This can form a relatively flat trunk space, which means that Odyssey's trunk is more flexible than GL8. For home use, especially when you need to move several furniture occasionally, you will find that Odyssey will be more useful than GL8.

and there is another important reason, that is, the cost performance of the Odyssey is better than that of the GL8. For family consumers, the price factor is also an important issue that we have to consider when buying a car. Therefore, among the three popular large-space models, this Honda Odyssey is the most suitable one for families with a large population.

I've seen all these cars, and I've ridden and driven them. Because I'm a family of five, I'm also struggling about what car to change, and I also travel occasionally, usually twice a piece, in summer vacation and winter vacation, where I go is far away, so it's very important to take comfort in the back row. The fuel consumption of Odyssey and Ailishen is not low, not as low as the legend, and many people around them buy this car. Disadvantages are poor noise control, no place to put luggage for long distance and small fuel tank. GL8, this generation is really remarkable, with a qualitative leap from fuel consumption to mute. Long-distance luggage can also be put down, and the ride comfort is no problem. The disadvantage is that the second-hand salvage rate is not good. It's hard to park if the car is big. Think about the parking distance in your community before buying it. It's a little inconvenient to walk in the city. But if MPV I still recommend GL8;; I personally experienced Highlander's. The middle position of the second row is rubbish, which is not excessive at all. Don't just look at it. The middle of the second row seat is designed with a central armrest, so if you have three people in the second row, the person in the middle is super uncomfortable. Not to mention the third row, access is a problem. If it is a family of six, just give up Highlander. Its advantages are patience and high second-hand salvage rate. For reference only. (Attached is a city that has driven by car in recent years)

As the leader of 3,-class 7-seat medium-sized SUV, Highlander's hot sale is not simply the trust of consumers in Toyota brand, but its strong product strength. Under the same size, only it can make the most rational use of the space in the third row. Of course, the upper limit of the size determines that it can't surpass the physical bottleneck, and its 2+3+2 seat can free up the trunk space with stronger loading capacity during daily driving. Compared with MPV, its high ground clearance can be fearless when facing road teeth, road conditions and light off-road, and even the wading height has some advantages.

most consumers will be impressed by the versatility of SUV in the face of these attractive bright advantages. However, even if Highlander has a high space utilization rate, it still cannot change its shortcomings that it is not good at carrying people. Because many people ride, MPV is the home. Under the huge size of GL8, its spatial performance is the best, and it does not need the cost details of one deduction after another for business positioning. Sound insulation and NVH have excellent performance, but the high price and low basic configuration are not suitable for the family users who are dominated by cost performance, and its large body will also bring inconvenience to commuting in urban areas.

While the Odyssey further improves the vehicle size, the biggest change compared with the previous generation lies in the height of the vehicle body. The improved vehicle height improves the performance of the vertical space inside the vehicle. The low platform is designed and equipped with electric side sliding doors as standard to facilitate the elderly and children to get on the bus. Honda is confident about stealing space. It is also the first generation to adopt 2+2+3 conventional seat layout. The sitting space and sitting comfort of the third row are better than Highlander. Thanks to the application of torsion beam rear suspension, the space conversion rate is further increased. Although the length of the car is not as long as that of GL8, the innovative "negative two-story" design is not inferior in the trunk loading space. Because of the ultimate stealing of space and the improvement of suspension form, the high-grade feeling and sound insulation texture of the chassis are reduced.

You can choose GL8 or Touran with a larger size if you are not short of money, but considering the cost performance, Odyssey's position cannot be replaced. (Yafu)

It's roughly the same as my family. A family of six people, who usually travel in the downtown area occasionally, want to buy a seven-seat, 3,35,-seat one. After seeing the V26 first, they think it's too business, and they get on the bus like a full-time driver, plus they are over budget, so they don't consider it. I looked at the GL8 again, but I didn't want the low configuration, and the high one came down to 4, yuan. Many car owners on the forum said that the fuel consumption of this front car was ok for several years, but after a few years of driving, the fuel consumption was particularly high, and there were still many minor problems, so I was afraid to buy it. The space in the third row of the Odyssey was very cramped. At last, I saw GM8, and the appearance and interior space were all right. My relatives said that his friend bought it, and it was always broken, and he regretted it. Let me think about it before buying it. I don't know what to buy now ...

After five years of driving the hybrid Odyssey, I sold and bought the Highlander, and drove another 7, kilometers. Regardless of the trunk space in the case of seven seats, Highlander can beat GL8 in any case. Highlander drives a hundred times better than Buick, and Buick is a typical gearbox that destroys everything. Two cars, children and old people can sleep comfortably. Because the car is high, the long distance is very comfortable, people are very stretched, and children can stand up when they are young. Highlander can take off the second row of central passages and run back and forth, which is very good. Odyssey doesn't recommend buying it. Honda is short-board except for fuel economy. Since you buy this car, you won't buy a car that sticks to your heart for one or two fuel. The body is low and rumbles like a tractor.

According to your needs, you can rule out Highlander first. In general, Highlander can only make four people sit comfortably, so you can basically rule it out first.

The remaining Odyssey and GL8 can make six people sit comfortably. Actually, both cars can be selected. Who to choose? Personally, I suggest to see how many cars there are in your house. If this is the only car, I suggest Odyssey. If there are other scooters, I suggest GL8.

if it is used in urban areas, GL8 car is very inconvenient (especially difficult for female drivers to control), with high fuel consumption and high failure rate (the only car in the family is really annoying if it is repaired), so it is embarrassing to be the only car in the family.

if it is used for long-distance self-driving, Odyssey has poor sound insulation and slightly poor comfort. After the third row is opened, there is no room for loading large luggage, and the power is not as good as GL8.

So, how to choose these cars depends on your personal situation. Anyway, my old Highlander is going to change to GL8 next year, and it is estimated that Senna can't afford it.

the odyssey. 1. Since you ask this question, it means that you want to give the elderly and children a more comfortable ride environment when you go out to play, so Highlander is not suitable. 2. Office workers travel for the whole family at most two or three times a year, and more often run in urban areas, and they drive to and from work alone. Odyssey is much more fuel-efficient than gl8! Believe me, if you want to have more face, it's ok to buy ink plates and import Senna in parallel. My family situation is very similar to yours, and I have been studying it for more than a year!
