Honda OdysseyOverview

Major changes included: The Odyssey gets bigger and more refined to stay in front. Safety is beefed up; for the first time, side-curtain airbags with a rollover sensor is used in a minivan. Also, Variable Cylinder Management (VCM), which turns off three of the engine's six cylinders to get better fuel economy, is available as an option.

Major changes included: A dramatic redesign in 1999 put Honda's minivan at the top of the heap, with a roomy interior, powerful engines and trick foldaway third seat. Several new convenience and safety features, including second- and third-row child seat tether anchors debut in 2001. Standard side airbags, a new transmission and optional leather seating appeared in 2002.

Major changes included: Honda introduced the five-door Odyssey in 1995 in your choice of LX or EX trim. The unique design resembled a station wagon more than a van and only seated up to five passengers. A slightly more powerful engine and revised exterior styling distinguish the 1998 model.
