Hi,
Here is an extract from a local article. Credit to :
Honda Edix Wald Version Tested. - Autoworld
From the exterior, the Edix is a very attractive looking vehicle, looking like an overgrown Civic hatch, but a little wider, a lot higher, and about the same length. Dimensions are 4285mm overall length, 1610mm overall height, a wheelbase of 2680mm, and an overall width of 1795mm. A short snub nose that is characteristic of the latest generation of MPVs’, a sloping bonnet line that is carried through the front windscreen and blends into the roof line, and a steep drop at the rear, together with waistline formed by the window sills that rake forwards and downwards from the rear to the front, makes the Edix look like a large wedge ready to carve a path through the wind. I am not so good at descriptions like this, see the pictures, and judge for yourself.
Most impressive is the width, and you will see what I mean, because the moment you open the door, you will note that there are three seats in the front row, and three in the back row, making the Edix effectively a six-seater. This idea is not new, as the older ones amongst us will recall the bench seats in the cars of the 1950s and the 1960’s. The Fiat Multipla was one of the few new recent models that made seats in the configuration, but perhaps it never took off because of its very unusual shape. This configuration is quite interesting. If you have a girlfriend in the car with you, she can snuggle real close to you while you are driving. However, if you are married and your mother in law has to come along for the ride, heaven help you if she decides to sit in the middle (just joking). The front centre seat (let’s call it fondly from now on as the MIL seat) folds forward to serve as a coffee table; the seat bottom also opens up to reveal a tray for you to put drinks and food in if the seat is unoccupied.
The seats are velour material, and are comfortable, although some bigger sized individuals may find them a little narrow. The front seats recline fully, and with a little bit of rearrangement, one can get a large bed-like set-up in the Edix. Legroom is excellent for both front and rear passengers, but the rear seats only recline about 20mm. I would venture to say that only the front passengers are pampered, while the rear passengers have to make do. Boot space is enough to take light luggage for four to six people. However, the rear seats can be folded forwards to form a completely flat bed for large articles.
The engine is a K20A 4-cylinder DOHC, 4-valve per cylinder unit featuring I-Vtec. Rated at 156ps at 6500 rpm, and delivering 188Nm of torque at 4000 rpm, the Edix is a well-balanced vehicle that is responsive to drive. The free-revving engine, well matched to a 4-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission that is also auto-adaptive, transmits drive to the front wheels. Speed per 1000 rpm is approximately 46 kilometres per hour, and at the highway regulation speed of 110 km/hr, the engine is ticking over at a little under 2500 rpm. For fast overtaking, a little button on the gear lever shifts the gear down fourth to third, and holds it there until you release it. Incidentally, the gear lever is located on the dashboard.
Top speed is 180 km/hr; the speedometer is the Japanese local spec type, and reads only up to 180 km/hr. We maxed it out on a slight downhill on the new highway to the east coast. Claimed fuel consumption under Japanese test conditions is 8.2 litres per 100 kilometres; our test used up about RM140.00 over a distance of 960 kilometres. This works out to be approximately 14.5 sen per kilometre, or approximately 10.3 litres per 100 kilometres, and this represents excellent fuel consumption. We drove over mixed terrain, and our speeds ranged between normal highway cruising at regulation speeds, some town and country road driving, and also some high speed runs. A full tank of petrol will take the Edix easily over 500 kilometres.
Acceleration from zero t o100 kilometres per hour was achieved in 12.3 seconds with three people in the vehicle, and air-conditioner running, a very respectable figure indeed.
Handling is a little on the soft side for my liking, but it is a real benefit to passengers. Mine felt very comfortable throughout the journey, and I would think that the family man who is likely to be the buyer of the Edix would have nothing to complain about. Around corners, it does roll a little, but after that, it will tuck in and take the corner easily. The trick is to gently squeeze the throttle as you go through; the front wheel drive will pull you through safely.
Suspension is independent all around, with coil springs on ll 4 wheels, and stabilizers both on the front and rear axles. Brakes are vented discs in front, and solid discs at the rear. The ‘handbrake’ is foot operated, and works on a inner drum built into the rear disc. ABS is standard equipment. No details are available on other safety features except for what we could see, and these were the seatbelts, one for every seat, SRS airbags for driver and passenger.
The air-conditioning is excellent, to the point of being too cold, but the radio is Japanese spec, and cannot receive the popular local stations. I am sure the local importers would be making a change before selling these units.
Generally, the Edix is an excellent vehicle for the family. It behaves well, is easy to handle, and offers some level of exclusivity because it is imported in limited numbers. After all, it is a Honda, and Honda make good cars.
