Flashy compared to my 2005 Sienna until the transmission Bill comes. My Sienna still runs on original engine, transmission, suspension, fuel pump, AC, electrical windows at 286K miles, More importantly, maintenance is very low cost with dealer oil/filter change works out to be $20 each time.
The con is uncertainties about if Honda have solved the issues (claims from the buyers) about the transmission failure, and other electronics stuff on this latest Odyssey.
You mentioned paddle shifters being a gimmick, and at first I agreed until I remembered how nice it is to downshift manually when coasting down steep hills
Nice but I work for a Auto claims department. That sell both Toyota and Nissan Honda etc. Toyota is superior in dependability and reliability. Calls all day with Honda issues.
does anybody think that the front rotors/brakes are too small for a car of such a weight? i test drove one and the brakes felt awful! (and the car was brand new at the dealer)
Is the Honda Odyssey the best minivan money can buy? Possibly. But if you check out the used car lots, you'll find dozens of them versus very few Toyota Siennas.
Again Honda Odyssey has transmission issues, & recently I read there is no camber adjustments on this car, so four wheel alignment maintenance is a issue too
Only the Elite offers the upgraded sound system, I wish you would have covered that. I'd like to know how it stacks up against the standard system in the other trims.
I was about to buy this van when I found out no 360 cam and worth 50k I was so disappointed. Now I am waiting on the redesign of the sienna. If they will redesign it anytime soon but if not Ill end up with the ridgeline and just buy a van later hahaha
Drivers Only On the bright side, the Sienna’s design is mature hence almost all problems has been fixed. It’s almost perfect durability wise. Not to mention that 300hp engine and amazing AWD system.
Not the best minivan money can buy, it doesn’t even have AWD! Sorry bud I’m not convinced, my family and I are completely happy with our Toyota Sienna witch meets all our driving needs!
Whats Difference between Touring and Elite version for 2019 Odyssey? I see both are almost similar technologies. then why I pay for Elite?, I own Elite 2016 that's have big difference with 2016 Touring. but 2019 both looks same!! Strange...
Elite includes a few more options that the touring does not like heated/vented seats, wireless charger etc...Nothing on the outside though outside the elite badge.
iit's a great car but if odyssey had a panoramic roof, also, awd and 360-cam and chain instead of timing belt it would bit sienna. but it's not a case unfort, . it;s a huge mistake that honda is not always listens. but in following classes: fit. civic, accord, hrv, crv honda is unbitable. in that segment honda much better than toyota. but not in mini-van segment.
Honda insists on a timing belt because they say its smoother. As for panormaic roof, 360 cam I agree. AWD I believe is left out on purpose so it doesn't hinder Pilot sales. The AWD on the Sienna isn't great either because you don't have a spare tire and have to use run flats which cost a lot to replace.
@@DriversOnly as for run flat yes it's costly. how ever is runs much more miles than previous tires on second gen sienna. as for awd and hinder pilot - we can see the real case,.. did sienna hinder highlander ??? not at all. the thing is that the suv and van there are two different class. two different segments. some people still believe that they are kinda replace each other but it's not wright. suvs do not replace vans. and vice versa. as for timing belt - generally yes it's smoother but if you consider all cons & pros and take all the aspects into consideration it's really silly idea to use belt. and beside that modern chain engines are quoit smooth as well. compare is the highlander not smooth??? it'a a smooth and great car. odyssey has better seats than sienna, (seats are fantastic on odsy) also built-in vacuum is fantastic idea. also i love interior camera , it great idea. those parts are definatly better than sienna. also 10-speed on odysy is better than 8-speed. but those tings which i mentioned above kills everything. btw also the door pockets on odysy is great. if honda will correct at least those 3 things they could bit sienna. or at least be at the same level with sienna. btw the civics are the phenomenal cars. they are thru masterpieces. especially i love 8-th and 9-th gen civics with CNG-versions. on factory compressed natural gas. it's unbelievable cars. it;s sooo sad that honda disconnected CNG's on 10-th gen cvcs. they are avilable only on 6th - to 9-th gen.
i am happy to see you are so proud of those other cars!! I just started working at honda as a salesman and I am trying to sell myself on the products so it's always great to hear good news about honda products! I am trying to find a way to sell myself on the pilots and odysseys right now as well!! I think the run flats is one of those things that is the selling point of why a customer would choose an odyssey over a sienna, also they say no awd bc it's a small niche of drivers that will buy them.
Don't do it! It looks a hell of alot better than a sienna until starts to break down. Which it will. Honda reliability is no more. But if all you care about is styling go for it. Vcm problems, transmission problems, engine mounts that need computer networks to fuction, steering issues,
No power memory steering wheel is a terrible omission. What guy would want to get into it and have to adjust the wheel to their ideal setting every time their 5 foot wife gets out. At least the power memory seats will crush my big dad gut into the non power memory wheel. And why are there 2 blank buttons on the highest elite model. They are obviously adding a HUD in next years model. I like the outside looks, but they need to hide that rear wiper up under the spoiler like many makers are doing. You can get a very compact vehicle vacuum that comes in a small portable bag, with various attachments, for 25 bucks. I don't know why reviews go so crazy over one that a manufacture provides. No 360 cam is criminal on something this big.
Why do I feel like I'm the only person that doesn't like the odyssey? It's too small! Height is small. The drive feel is terrible. I feel every little bump on the road. Everything else seems fine but for 50k ride should feel floaty not like a sports vehicle.
Infotainment have lots of issues. Freezing, not playing music, cabin watch doesn’t work at all times. Honda knows about issues but not fixing anything claiming that it is software issue. Would not buy Honda anymore.
Hey, I have the Ridgeline and my pussy has the Odyssey lol at 6:49min both has the same engine tuned differently.... It seems like Honda can't shake the Odyssey...it is great for business as well as family and we many times used it as a pick up truck to move furniture and other stuff and also as a camper... yes the Odyssey as a camper, just remove the middle seats put a full size inflatable mattress in and still room for a cooler and bags, so much that can be done with it to say the least.
recalls are good though right? its bad because there isa problem but good also because you just have to get it fixed by the dealerships and its free. its honda's way of showing you that they care and are actively doing their best to make the best of their products, no?

Drivers Only Why is the Sienna the only Minivan with AWD? Is it because it is not necessary on a minivan?

I got 285,000 miles out of my 2003 Sienna before the transmission finally gave up the ghost. In a 2018 Sienna now.
Too bad the Sienna 2nd row does not come out to leave a flat floor, bad design
yea ur right about the tailgate not stopping when there is an obstacle, they need to look at that and fix it before someone gets hurt.
Yea I feel like this is a big problem no one is talking about. In the video I was not exaggerating, I was literally being pushed down.
It won't crush you. I own one. It will squeeze you but it will reverse and go back up.
The sensor is whacked. It has a mind of it's own. One time I was hitch my trailer, the door popped opened and grabbed my ass. I felt violate #metoo.
2:11 That really looks like an image of the back put in the middle of the screen. weird.
lol yes because of the long overhang
Came here to say the same thing, looks like a cardboard cutout, i think it's the absence of shadows underneath it
The con is uncertainties about if Honda have solved the issues (claims from the buyers) about the transmission failure, and other electronics stuff on this latest Odyssey.
My Cadillac Escalade ESV also crushes you when it closes* I cannot wrap my head around how these companies are missing this! Wow
Yea mind-boggling. :(

Great review you answered all my questions.
I thought he is reviewing front ocf greeen screen , when he was back side
lol yea looks like its hovering
Omg at 3:00 it looks like it’s floating!
Haha I noticed that too!
Hover odyssey lol
Same thought 😄😄😄 How come?
Yeahh wth happened???
It's just the way the sun is directing above so our depth perception from that angle gives the floating affect
does anybody think that the front rotors/brakes are too small for a car of such a weight? i test drove one and the brakes felt awful! (and the car was brand new at the dealer)
This is my first look at a Honda...we now have (and love) our Dodge caravan (2014)...I will give it a look....when we trade. Thanks
Glad to hear I can help!
Any update? Did u get it
I have Honda oddyssey transmisión problems... No recalls
N
Mmmmm please no buy ODDYSSEY
Is the Honda Odyssey the best minivan money can buy? Possibly. But if you check out the used car lots, you'll find dozens of them versus very few Toyota Siennas.
It does not matter odyssey still the best
Again Honda Odyssey has transmission issues, & recently I read there is no camber adjustments on this car, so four wheel alignment maintenance is a issue too
Awesome review 👍👍👍
Only the Elite offers the upgraded sound system, I wish you would have covered that. I'd like to know how it stacks up against the standard system in the other trims.
Thanks for letting me know.
What America needs is the Toyota Vellfire, Alphard and the Lexus LM!
It’s between the color u have and the black diamond pearl or something like that
I was about to buy this van when I found out no 360 cam and worth 50k I was so disappointed. Now I am waiting on the redesign of the sienna. If they will redesign it anytime soon but if not Ill end up with the ridgeline and just buy a van later hahaha
Yea Toyota is dragging their feet on the new Sienna, wonder how it'll compete.

I wish they make it 8 passenger awd
Yea I wish they could have it 8 passenger
That's what she said!! At 19:16 😂🤣
I taped off the foot sensor. I hate triggering it while hitching my trailer.
lol
Do You feel a vehicle that size should have awd??🤔🤔
Good review.
Appreciate it.

That tailgate sensor gets annoying when your dog keeps triggering it when you’re loading bags. Not such a great idea more like a gimmick.
Yea and the fact you can get crushed
Will you review Kia and Hyundai, Kia Stinger GT, Hyundai Veloster N, Kia and Hyundai have exciting cars to.
Yes of course but I haven't been able to find a Hyundai dealership around Chicago land that is willing to let me borrow their cars.
Kia/Hyundai are trash !

Say what you want, but I think Honda is making a mistake by not offering the Odyssey in AWD@@LittleBoyOfHope
@@58HUSTLER im anovice when it comes to cars honestly :p i think the same hustler
Are there power folding mirrors?
No they are not power folding.
Yes they are power folding mirrors

I agree. Odyssey is awesome for hauling and for the family. There is so much room in a minivan compared to a suv.
Just recalled for power sliding doors opening while driving. Also Honda has oil problems in engines. Stay away.
Thanks for sharing. That would be a nightmare if that happened.
