Minivan with eye-catching tuning - CDM style on the Honda Elysion Hybrid

In Europe, minivans are more for families or retirees, as younger customers mostly rely on SUV models or hatchbacks. In the Asian markets, on the other hand, it is different, since the MPV wave is currently rolling there and is setting out to push SUV models and sedans from the top of the registration statistics. Of course, this development does not leave car enthusiasts and tuning fans unaffected, which means that more and more MPV models are also being optically tuned. They should have a much sportier character than the mostly angular and misshapen-looking series models, which in our opinion are only there to offer practical utility, but unlike SUV models, they do not have a lifestyle image. Unfortunately, the have-and-want effect is often not given with such a box, which means that MPV models in this country have a difficult position against SUVs. The Honda Elysion, which we are now introducing to you, proves what you can do with a simple minivan through optical tuning.

Hybrid minivan with show car potential

Even at the front it becomes clear that this refined minivan is an absolute eye-catcher. With its eye-catching body kit from STEK, which transforms the Elysion into an asphalt milling machine, which you wouldn't expect from a hybrid minivan with the best will in the world. The radiator grille in body color and the "jewel eyes" that are familiar from Honda's luxury brand Acura also immediately catch the eye. The front spoiler is also very distinctive, and ensures that the Elysion has a sporty attitude and leaves the family car image completely behind. In terms of tires, Michelin Pilot Sport 4S were mounted on Work LS1 2P rims, which give the vehicle a certain sporty touch that you don't necessarily expect from a minivan. The AP Racing brake calipers, which were painted yellow, also go perfectly with this. The eye-catching show tuning is rounded off by an Airlift 3H chassis, which can be variably adjusted in height with the help of a JVR Air control. This Honda Elysion, which is doing its laps in China, is an absolute show car that would also find its fans in Europe at any brand-open tuning meeting.

Hybrid drive with a green conscience and power.

The 2-liter naturally aspirated engine, which is supported by an electric motor, generates a system output of 184 hp and 315 Newton meters of torque. This brings the almost 2 ton load to 10 km / h in about 100 seconds, and the top speed is almost 200 km / h. Power is transmitted to the front wheels via a continuously variable automatic transmission. This car is guaranteed not to be a car with which you want to show who is in charge of the autobahn, but a space glider that was designed for long distances and relaxed travel, which is why it is of secondary importance how much power the minivan ultimately offers. Thanks to the hybrid drive, consumption is just 5,9 liters per 100 km, and the Elysion thus proves that even large and heavy automobiles can be driven economically.

Show car, the base of which is only available in China.

If you've got the taste for it and want to venture into such a project vehicle, then we will unfortunately have to disappoint you. The Elysion is officially only available in China, and the model could only reach Germany and Europe via gray imports. In this case, however, you should inquire in advance whether approval and insurance are even possible. If you want to save yourself the hassle, you are welcome to take a look at our picture gallery, which we have provided for you at the end of the article. If we get more information about the changes, there is of course an update for this report. You will be informed of this if you simply our Feed subscribe to.
