GRANDVILLE, Mich.,––If you haven't caught-up on the latest Honda is bringing to the table when it comes to minivans, it's time you do! The 2018 Honda Odyssey, released just a few months ago is taking over the top seed in the minivan class with tons of exclusive, new family-based features. Honda's best selling 8-seater is always ready to take on the road with its spacious interior, advanced safety technology, and convenience and tech features. Take a look at our top 5 Honda Odyssey features you won't want to travel without this Summer to get a better feel for how this minivan can meet all your family's needs.

1. Second Row Magic Slide Seats

One of the Odyssey's coolest and most useful features yet has arrived! The second row Magic Slide seats offers even more flexibility in seating and free cargo space. These seats can slide together, slide apart, and slide forward and back. Note: they cannot yet do the cha-cha slide. When the kids are fighting and you need to separate them, or the baby is crying and you need to move their seat towards the passenger the Magic Slide seats make it super easy! You can also fully remove the second row seats for more storage space as needed.

2. Rear Entertainment System 

What's easier than having a big screen in the rear to keep the little ones entertained? Having a big screen in the rear that's connected to wi-fi and can live stream services like Netflix or Amazon Prime. Past generations of the Honda Odyssey offer an awesome rear entertainment system, including wireless headphones for those that want to listen in on the DVD. The 2018 model now comes with wi-fi connectivity allowing you to stream movies and shows! The new How Much Farther app is also available through this system to provide kids a fun way to see how far along you are, and to easily answer them each time they ask "are we there yet?"

3. CabinWatch & CabinTalk

These features are exclusive to the 2018 Honda Odyssey. CabinWatch is a feature that allows the driver to view what's happening in the back through the display up-front, meaning you don't have to contort your body while driving to keep an eye on things. This feature also includes night vision! The CabinTalk feature is an awesome way to clearly communicate with everyone in the car, even if they've got the rear entertainment system wireless headphones on. You can project your message through the speakers in the car and the headphones, so there's no longer a need to scream "I will turn this van around" at the top of your lungs to get the message across.

4. Power Tailgate

This is an underestimated features, which is perfect for busy families trying to pack and unpack a van! If you're someone that needs to carry a tired baby on your hip, or just need an extra hand when both of yours are full of groceries, the power tailgate has you covered. A simple wave of the foot under the rear 2018 Honda Odyssey bumper is all it takes, so you don't have to reassemble yourself, your kids, and your load to get it open.

5. Built-In HondaVac

If we're going to be honest about road trips with the family, things can very messy very quickly. Honda knows what it's like to be a parent of crumb spreading, juice spilling, accident prone kids. The class-exclusive built-in HondaVac has been around for a few years and is one of the beat features for on the road messes. Even when you're at home, there's no need to untangle the old extension cord or to wait on charging up your handheld vacuum to clean out your van.

In a new ad campaign, titled "Keep the Peace", Honda shows two monsters fighting each other and destroying the city. Two soldiers rush in, team up to create a distraction, then pull a lever to shift crack the ground in between the monsters and separate them. What does this represent? the 2018 Honda Odyssey's Second-Row Magic Slide seats. This feature is great to separate fights, and arrange the backseat in a way that fits your needs!

GRANDVILLE, Mich.––The Honda Odyssey is well known as a reliable family van that can tote a crowd along, well, an odyssey (a long journey full of adventures). Not much about the design of vans has been changed across the years, but the list of features always seems to be extensive and growing with each new model. At North American International Auto Show earlier last week Honda revealed the 2018 Honda Odyssey. To put it simply, the ultimate family vehicle has gotten a technology upgrade!



The newest Honda minivan is set to launch at dealerships nationwide this spring! With the new design and new family-friendly features, we think Honda will achieve its 8th year of producing and selling the most popular minivan among American car buyers, especially with the new class-exclusive connectivity and technology features.

"This new Odyssey raises the stakes for family-friendly packaging, performance and technology in the minivan segment," said John Mendel, Executive Vice President of American Honda Motor Co., Inc. "In all aspects of its design, the new Odyssey is made to keep every member of the family happy, no matter the seating position, no matter the destination."
