About Honda Odyssey

Above about Honda Odyssey.

THE big MPV is still popular despite the downturn, although more seem to be zeroing on the basic versions. At Kah Motor, for example, the authorised Honda distributor is selling more of the entry-level Odyssey EX model than before - 25 per cent of total sales, to be exact. A year ago, virtually all of its 2.4-litre seven-seaters delivered were of the more expensive Odyssey EXV.

Kah Motor says the move downwards is also partly due to the wider price gap between the two grades caused by the higher Japanese yen.

But high-end or low-end, powered seats or no powered seats, the new Odyssey should put a smile on your face in a way few large MPV models can. The difference between the EX and EXV grades is now about $5,800, from around $3,000 previously.

The fourth-generation Odyssey is based on the platform of the third-generation model but Honda says 60 per cent of its components are new.

One all-new feature is the Motion Adaptive Electric Power Steering. Available only in the more expensive EXV, it intervenes electronically to suppress understeer by counter-steering, when necessary. In a sharp corner, for example, this helps to reduce body roll. Together with the softer suspension, the new Odyssey is as comfort-biased as an inflatable ring cushion for haemorrhoid sufferers, yet still able to display a commendable level of control.

The new Odyssey has the same 2.4-litre engine to power the front wheels but with drive-by-wire and 180 hp, or an extra 20 horses. Also different is the dashboard, which has been ?carved out? to yield more cabin space, and features spacey 3D-look instruments.

The exterior has also been reworked. Unlike the van of old, this new Odyssey is sleeker and looks more like an Accord Estate rather than a multi-purpose vehicle. More importantly, the styling has incorporated slimmer front pillars for better forward visibility.

Sharp headlamps supplements the steeply raked windscreen but the front grille resembles the CR-V. Alloy wheels and ellipsoidal glass area decorates the Jazz side.
