My Ride: carbonized MB coupe
Default
to cut a long story short................
the tested times for 0-100kmh by Car PLus

Previa 3.5 7.54secs
Previa 2.4 11.37secs
Alphard 350 8.37secs
Alphard 2.4 12.85secs
Noah 2L 10.74secs
Stepwagon 2.0 11.41secs
Odyssey 2.4 10.25secs
MB Viano 3.5 10.13secs
Nissan Elgrand 3.5 8.63secs
Nissan Serena 2L 12.20secs
Mazda 8 2.2 12.66secs
BMW x5 7 seats 3.5 6.8secs (not tested) and for
5.0 5.5secs.
VW Caravelle 3.2 10.96
Volvo XC90 V8 9.5secs

The only choice for a fast 7 seater is the X5.....
then the Previa, what is disappointing is the direction
of Honda, even a copy called a Noah is quicker than a STEPWAGON
this is a good example of how having just one dealer who chooses the crap
products from Japan and not the good ones will screw up the range on offer.
Here Toyota wins easily, I like Honda because they are the BMW of Japan but the range
for sale in HK and how they are detuned eg.Odyssey is shocking.
