Arion Cormorant 145I '05
Comfort, safety, practicality and style wrapped into an efficient family package
–
The second generation Cormorant was released in '05 replacing the '91-'04 model, now featuring a much smoother and sharper design. The entry grade model is the 145I which utilises a 2.0L inline 4 with in-house “Arion electromagnetic valvetrain technology (AEVT)” for improved performance, efficiency, and lower emissions.
The brand new Cormorant has a 6-gear electronic automatic or 5-gear manual paired to either RWD or AWD. A completely revised fully clad undertray and cooling flaps help the Cormorant 145I achieve 46.4MPG (UK) city and 66.4MPG (UK) highway, helping you save both spending on petrol and the environment with only 68.2 emissions.
Not only is the Cormorant safer for the environment, but with the full aluminium body and galvanised steel chassis, it can conquer even the harshest weather conditions common to the USA.
With the independent suspension all around, adaptive damping and advanced multilink rear suspension paired with our premium interior and infotainment system, you will feel comfort like never before whilst cruising down the road.
Top of the line modern equipment such as electronic power steering, traction control, electronic stability control and the highest grade safety technology around all come as standard to the new Arion Cormorant.

Description
The 12th generation Mahkota was released in 2003, replacing the 11th generation model which was sold from 1999 to 2003. This generation of Mahkota was a radical departure from previous generations, moving away from its traditional, conservative style into a fresh design fit for the 2010s.
This generation of Mahkota also debuted a new family of all-aluminium straight-six engines, with displacement ranging from 2.5 litres to 4.0 litres. The Brougham (luxury) models are equipped with either a 2.5l or 3.0l engine, while Athlon (sports) models were equipped with a 3.5l engine. All engines were mated to a 6-speed automatic for rear-wheel-drive models, or a 5-speed automatic for all-wheel-drive models.
As with previous generations, the Mahkota is equipped with multilink rear suspension and HINOSUS adaptive suspension, which adjusts the shock absorbers based on current road conditions for optimum comfort and driving feel. All models are also equipped with Vehicle Stability Control to help the driver maintain control of the Mahkota at its limits.
In keeping with Hinode tradition, the Mahkota’s spacious interior is trimmed and upholstered with the best materials, with high-quality cloth seats (optional leather seats), woodgrain trim, aluminium accents, and a high-quality four-speaker entertainment suite, all to provide passengers with the highest levels of comfort and serenity.

Cabirou Argosy
This premium minivan was updated for 2005 with a focus on a more luxurious experience. Electronically adjustable dampers and a well-crafted premium interior, now featuring optional satellite navigation, cosset 6 passengers in luxury. Though maintaining the longitudinal FWD layout and 4 speed automatic of its predecessor, the new Argosy received an all new 3.5 liter V6. Power was just slightly improved from the previous engine, but the new design greatly improved fuel economy and increased maintenance intervals.
