The 2010 Honda Odyssey is the best exclusive drive minivan out there. The 2010 model remains largely unchanged from the 2009, but has more advanced features and a significant styling difference. The Odyssey has had such an impact on buyers that it displaces the Dodge Grand Caravan as America’s best-selling minivan and has high marks from Kelly Blue Book and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The 2010 Odyssey is the best car for the family! The Odyssey comes in LX, EX, EX-L, and Touring trims. This car definitely makes the right adaptations for the space inside, as the second-row bucket seats and third-row seats fold into a cargo storage area in the floor. Do you need even more space? Also to save space, there are removable folding seats that fit between the second row pockets for a capacity of eight passengers. The car has many new features including leather upholstery, three-zone climate control, sunroof, XM® radio, Honda DVD rear entertainment system, and a Honda Satellite Navigation (TM) system also with satellite recognition. Voice and rear view camera (for those who have difficulty backing up in areas). The new Odyssey also has a Homelink® remote system, Bluetooth® capabilities, a rearview mirror with rearview camera display and, as noted above, a 60/40 split third-row one-move Magic Seat® with storage in floor.
Honda also decided to update the Odyssey under the hood with cool new features. The car has a 3.5-liter SOHC VTEC® V-6 engine with a 5-speed automatic transmission that produces 244 horsepower. This engine is standard across the board, along with a Drive-by-Wire (TM) acceleration system. However, exclusively for EX-L and Touring trims, the car comes with Honda’s Variable Cylinder Management (TM) (VCM®), which increases fuel economy.
The most impressive thing about the 2010 Odyssey by far is its safety features. These key features include vehicle stability assistant with traction control, an antilock braking system, electronic brake distribution, and active driver / front passenger headrests. The car also has a host of airbag safety systems, such as two-stage multi-threshold front airbags, front side airbags with passenger-side occupant position sensing system, and airbags. Three-row side curtain air vents with rollover sensors. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration tested the results of front and side impact crashes of cars and, in conclusion, gave it 5-star front and side ratings.
Even Kelly Blue Book named the Odyssey one of the top ten best new family cars of 2009. The average price of the Odyssey is between $ 30,200 and $ 34,000.
