The L700 is a commercial station wagon from Honda. Produced for only eleven months beginning in October 1965, it shared the S600 roadster's mechanicals and used a bored out version of that car's high-tech inline-four engine.[1] At 687 cc, the revvy DOHC engine produced Template:Cvt at 7,500 rpm with twin side-draft carburettors. Torque is Template:Cvt at 4,500 rpm.[2]

The L700 was designed for commercial deliveries and was referred to by Honda as a light van, but it appeared as a conventional station wagon, seating five. Only a four-speed manual transmission was available, the front suspension was an independent MacPherson struts while the rear was a conventional leaf sprung live axle.[2] Two models were built — the basic LA700 and better-equipped LM700.[3] A third version, called the Honda P700[4] was a small pick-up truck version, with an exposed load bay and a standard cab situated behind the engine, using the same chassis as the L700 (front engine, rear drive). It appeared a month after the L700. 12,763 L700 and 1328 P700 were built.[1] Payload for all L and P-series models was Template:Cvt.

L800

The L700 was replaced in 1966 by the L800. Basically an L700 with a Template:Cvt 791 cc engine, the L800 was introduced at the Tokyo Motor Show in 1966. The engine came from the S800 roadster but used a single side-draft carburettor. Top speed is Template:Cvt.[1] It was available in LA and LM trim levels like the L700. The "L" prefix is a naming reference to lorry, from the British word for "truck." 7,275 L800 were built, alongside 1,079 P800.[5] In total, 22,445 of all L- and P-series models were built; very few remain.
