The Honda Avancier (Chinese: 冠道; pinyin: Guàndào) is a mid-size crossover SUV produced by Guangqi Honda, a joint venture between Japanese automaker Honda and Chinese automaker GAC, for China since late 2016.

Overview

The first prototype of Avancier was displayed at the 2015 Auto Shanghai and debuted as the Concept D. Honda debuted a prototype version of the Avancier during the April 2016 Auto China and then during the September 2016 Chengdu Auto Show, to be marketed solely in China in October 2016. It is positioned above the CR-V and is currently sold as Honda’s flagship crossover SUV in China. The Honda Avancier is built on the same Global Light Truck Platform 2 (GLTP2) as the third-generation Acura MDX, which was produced from 2014 to 2020.

The Avancier is powered by either a 1.5 L L15B7 Earth Dreams VTEC Turbo inline-four engine producing 144 kW (193 hp; 196 PS) and 240 N⋅m (177 lbf⋅ft) of torque mated to a continuously variable transmission (badged as “240 Turbo”) or a 2.0 L K20C3 Earth Dreams VTEC Turbo inline-four engine producing 200 kW (268 hp; 272 PS) and 370 N⋅m (273 lbf⋅ft) of torque mated to a ZF 9-speed automatic transmission (badged as “370 Turbo”).
