Many people are looking for larger family cars or multi-purpose vehicles and the 2008 Honda Odyssey is an ideal choice for moving people, pets, tools or shopping. It is a safe and well-appointed family car. The Odyssey features a 3. 5L, V6 engine to produce 244 hp; all the power you need from this type of vehicle. In some models, the EX-L and Tourer, a cylinder deactivation device which shuts down cylinders when the vehicle is cruising, to improve fuel economy. This is hardly noticeable as you are driving however, and no obvious loss of power is felt. The good fuel economy is a feature of the Odyssey. The EPA rating is 17 miles per gallon around town and 25 miles per gallon along the highways. Combine this with beautiful handling, responsive steering and a tight turning circle and you have a vehicle that drives more like a luxury vehicle than a minivan. Having a vehicle that gives good fuel economy and handles well is one thing, but a vehicle also needs to look good, something that is lacking in many minivan models on the roads today. Honda made some exterior changes to the 2008 Odyssey, like a reshaped front end and side mirrors that are memory-linked. Inside you will find there are several new convenience features that add to the driving experience. A reversing camera has been added to the rearview mirror, making reversing easier and safer. Even the base LX model comes equipped with power operated front and middle doors, airconditioning, a CD and MP3 player, adjustable steering column and cruise control. The middle of the range EX has more features added: alloy wheels, zoned climate control for comfort of all passengers and the driver, powered drivers seat for easy adjustment and powered sliding doors. The EX-L range includes all this and more; heated front seats, rear DVD player, leather trim, sunroof and satellite radio. Then there is the top model, the Touring, which has the added luxury of an upgraded audio system, adjustable pedals and Bluetooth. Safety is so important in vehicles today and Honda has excelled in this area with the 2008 Odyssey. Standard safety features include traction and stability control, anti-lock braking and brake assist, and front and side airbags. The Odyssey performed brilliantly in front and side crash tests with both the NHTSA and the IIHS, scoring the top rating with both organizations. You and your family will travel safer in the Honda Odyssey. The 2008 Honda Odyssey is the best choice in the minivan category, with its good looks, safety features and driveability.
