There are not nearly as many minivans available in the automobile market as there once was. For a period, these practical vehicles were a staple for families on the go, offering passenger capacity and cargo space to suit the needs of a growing family. The minivan is as safe of an automobile to bring children—and their hockey gear—around as any car on the market. Thankfully, there are still a few manufacturers that offer a minivan in their range. The Honda Odyssey is one of the last of a dying breed.
Used Honda Odyssey for sale
The Honda Odyssey has been in production since 1994, when the body type was at its peak in popularity. The first-generation model offered accommodations for up to seven passengers, with a removable three-seating middle bench. The 1999 second-generation model was much larger than its predecessor, as it adopted a more practical format, including powered sliding doors and sliding seats. Meanwhile, a third generation was introduced in 2005, offering a similar size to the previous generation but with upgraded technology, including electronic stability control and an updated engine.
