DENVER – Honda reveals a conservatively styled next generation Odyssey minivan. The new Odyssey minivan was first shown as a concept at
the 2010 Chicago Auto show. The look is evolutionary but it looks even more conservative then the current generation Odyssey. Honda has
definately taken a different route than archrival Toyota with its design. In our opinion, Toyota has a slight edge with the exterior design.
However, Honda still trumps Toyota when it comes to the interior. The interior is conservative, but it also looks sporty and not bland.
The 2011 Toyota Sienna's interior looks somewhat truck-like in our opinion. The Sienna's dash reminds us of the one on Toyota's
Tacoma pickup truck. It's our opinion that Toyota hasn't sold a stylish minivan in the United States since the Previa. The new fourth
generation Odyssey is powered by the same engine that powers the current generation. We'll have more details as it gets closer to the
release date.
