Used Honda Stream for sale (0 Result)

The Honda Stream is a compact multi-purpose vehicle produced by Honda Motor Corporation from 2000 to 2014. It was built to become one of the best-handling MPVs in the world. Based on the efficient new Civic platform, the car is a dream car to drive and owns a roomy cabin, too. It is available with both petrol and diesel engines. The petrol versions are powerful and smooth, but the car would make notable sense with the strong diesel version. Handling abilities are more like a smaller hatchback than any other competitors in the same segment. Its top speed is about 203 km/h ( 127 mph).

The first generation was officially launched in October, 2000. The second generation made it debut in July, 2006. Although the Stream was partially exported in Left-hand-drive markets, particularly in European countries, it was more successful in Singapore and Japan. 

Let's read the full review from experts and owners:

The new engine 2.0L K20B i-VTEC I I4 was added to the first generation in December 2003. This engine was paired with CVT transmission, enhancing fuel efficiency of the car. The K20B version was also known as the first ultra-lean petrol engine applying direct injection technology that was only available in Japan. There was no other Honda cars fitted with direct injection technology until the launch of the Earth Dream engines in 2011 for the American market.

In September 2003, the car received a facelift.

The lower-end spec was fitted with a 1.8 L R18A i-VTEC I4 engine paired with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a 5-speed automatic gearbox. The higher-end spec was equipped with 2.0 L R20A i-VTEC I4 with variable length intake manifold, a 5-speed automatic transmission for all AWD models; or a CVT transmission and optional 7-speed paddle shift function that come with all FWD models.

From April 2013, there is only the RSZ model available on the market.

The production of the Honda Stream ceased in 2014 for the Singaporean and Japanese markets. Its production was still continued in Malaysia until 2015. However in Singapore and Japan, the Stream was replaced by the Honda Jade.
