Schomp Honda

Before the lack of coolness sets in about driving a minivan, consider that the Odyssey isn't your typical minivan. While it may not be the sleek red convertible of your youthful dreams, it's not the boxy grocery getter of your nightmares either.

With today's high gas prices, surprisingly it will tame your inner environmentalist with its best in category gas mileage. 

Or if you are looking to take the family and a couple of friends up the mountain, its optional seating for eight passengers means you can leave the second car at home. 

There is no reason you should feel you have to compromise, just because you are considering a minivan. With safety, comfort and overall feel, the Honda Odyssey offers it all. 

SAFETY

You may never want to think about an accident. But it's better to know the Honda Odyssey has your back, along with the rest of you. Whether you are driving the Peak to Peak Highway or through Glenwood Canyon, safety was never far from the engineer's minds that developed your minivan. All models of the Honda Odyssey come with front and side airbags. For those less than perfect Colorado roads, all models of the Odyssey come with anti lock brakes and electronic stability control.

For the ultimate peace of mind, the independent Insurance Institute for Highway Safety named the Honda Odyssey a top safety pick. The Odyssey minivan scored a maximum rating of good, in front and side impact crash tests. It also scored well in roof strength evaluations, just in case.

REDESIGNED FOR COMFORT

The completely redesigned Honda Odyssey now offers more room than ever. The engineers added four inches to the second row leg room, allowing for even the tallest Denver Nuggets player to be comfortable. However, since not many professional basketball players sit in the second row, Honda engineers built in a feature, allowing the second row seats to slide forward more than five inches, allowing the driver or front passenger to easily access children or children's car seats in the second row.

OVERALL FEEL

When it comes to critics, some of the toughest are the editors of Edmunds Inside Line.  They are where the people who are crazy about cars go for advice.  That being said, they tested the Honda Odyssey against the Toyota Sienna.  Here's what they had to say: "the Honda beat the Toyota in almost every category."  Edmunds Inside Line Editor Chris Walton said, "the Honda soundly beat the (Toyota) Sienna XLE."

Perhaps Automotive Magazine said it best, "the Odyssey is what it has always been: the best minivan period."  If you are in the market for a minivan, you owe it to yourself to drive the very best, the 2011 Honda Odyssey.
