Changan CD701 2024.

This electric car does not yet have a name, only the factory code CD701. Although the first announcement was in the summer of 2022, the debut of the conceptual version took place last spring at the Shanghai Motor Show.

Now the Changan company has shown a pre-production version: in this form, the CD701 should reach the assembly line at the beginning of 2024.

The most interesting thing about this electric car is the body design. This is not a coupe-shaped crossover, as it might seem when viewed in profile, but a pickup truck in disguise.

There is a cargo compartment at the rear, separated from the passenger compartment by a rigid partition with glass.

The stern is equipped with a folding side, and the glass roof of the compartment can be moved forward (in whole or in part).

Honda Odyssey 2024.

This will be the second update to the current-generation Honda Odyssey minivan.

This Japanese minivan has received a second facelift for the current generation version, which offers changes to the head section of the model.

The front part of the body has continuous camouflage coatings that do an excellent job of camouflaging details.

However, the changes may be minor. The outline of the grille and headlights are visible, showing the same overall shape as the current version.

Rectangular cutouts at the corners reveal folded driving lights, which also have a similar shape, although the structure looks slightly different.

Below you can see the bottom of the front panel with some interesting new notches.

Expect a redesigned lower fascia with small indentations not unlike those found on the Honda Pilot.
