Van's shorter trips means less chance highway aero, snow resistance, and slower fast charging mess up your experience. | On my 2023 Model Y, you can heat up the batteries by turning on the climate control
Not sure on my 2019 Model 3

It's been way too long ago since I drove the 1G TSX, so I don't remember much about it other than that it was pretty smooth. But my old man has a 10th gen Civic with the pedestrian K20C2, and I really like the way his car drove. There is nothing fancy about any aspect of the car, but it has a very easy going and workhorse manners that makes it very pleasant to drive. It is a much bigger car that rides on Mac struts instead of wishbone suspension, but I suppose it still shares some of that old school Honda engineering genes with the 1G TSX. Quote:

I never get bored of driving it (FIL has my TSX now) even when it tied to a 5 speed auto.
The K20C in my RDX is pretty meh - it doesn't help that they pipe in fake sounds that try to make it sound like a bigger engine but the fake sounds are just covering up how boring the engine is (relatively speaking). | |

I love the 1G TSX, but the fuel economy on it is terrible. A friend parked his 6sp at my house for bit after he bought a Miata and I had the keys to it. It still has that older Honda feel to it but a uprated cabin.
I remember lusting for one when they came out while I was still in highschool.

idk if J and K series really get that good fuel economy
J30/35 got like 12-15 for me no matter what car, where/how I was driving it.
B58 in X5 and Pentastar in a Ram 1500 get about the same.
Toyota's whatever V6 is rougher but it gets like 10.
JCW Minis/Alfa Romeo V6/MB 6 cyl turbo/F series/V8s enough to go gas
but tbh otherwise I prefer electric

When I had my auto k24 it wasn't bad, pretty good for a big car, around 10.5 to 11 l/100km depending on how much highway I drive. I think it got down to like 8l if it was all highway. 200 hp is pretty under powered these days with 2000+ cars and how big and heavy they are.

I averaged 8L/100km highway and 11-12L/100km city on my Accord with the J35 & VCM. It also had the 6 speed automatic so that probably helped a bit. I miss how smooth that engine was and how eagerly it revved for a commodity V6, as RZD puts it. Good noises too!

Was browsing the Honda website and saw they have a Land Cruiser-esque looking Passport coming out next year... still going to be a V6.
I might check that out, looks cool and proven drivetrain. https://www.honda.ca/en/future-vehicles/passport | |

My level 2 charger keeps the battery topped up while preheating, doesn't drop a percent even below freezing temps.

My Model 3 Performance is averaging 200kwh/km, I just love flooring the car everywhere I go and charging is free for me.
My Alphard V6 is giving me 4-5km/L...that's a big headache here.
