In the far back, the third-row seat remains a fold-flat 60/40-split bench. Additionally, the second-row captain's chairs can be pushed together to form a two-passenger bench. This optional seat can be converted into a center tray table or removed and stored in the vehicle's in-floor storage area, which can be made even more functional with a rotating "lazy Susan" feature hidden inside.
Inside, the Odyssey offers optional eight-passenger seating with a stowable middle seat in the second row. If you're looking for a minivan that's enjoyable to drive in addition to being practical, Honda's van remains the leader in this area. The Honda Odyssey continues its tradition of a carlike ride and handling, further enhanced by a stout structure and well-tuned suspension dynamics. As an added bonus, Honda Odyssey models with VCM are extra quiet because they're equipped with Active Noise Control (ANC) technology that works with the audio system to effectively cancel inherent noise produced by the VCM system (along with some road noise). The VCM system, noted to increase fuel economy by as much as 12 percent over the regular VTEC V6, is virtually undetectable. VCM increases fuel-efficiency by "shutting off" three of the engine's six cylinders during cruising and deceleration, and switches back to using all six cylinders when added power is needed. The difference is that one is classified as an i-VTEC featuring Variable Cylinder Management (VCM, standard equipment on top trim levels). Both are 3.5-liter VTEC engines rated at 244 horsepower, and are mated to a five-speed automatic transmission. The newest Honda Odyssey is quieter, more spacious and offers even more innovative features than before, including increased seating configurations and unique storage solutions. Having claimed the best-in-class crown from Chrysler shortly after its debut in 1999, the Odyssey reigned supreme for five years thanks to its cavernous interior filled with useful features, pleasant driving characteristics, excellent crash test scores and generally favorable reliability record.Īnd just when you thought the best couldn't get any better, the Odyssey hit the market for 2005 offering numerous mechanical improvements as well as increased feature content.
2006 HONDA ODYSSEY VALUE BLUETOOTH
There is no Bluetooth or auxiliary inputs into the speakers so CD and radio are your only options for this year.There's no disputing the fact that the Honda Odyssey is a great minivan. Several of the light bulbs on the instrument panel and dash have burned out and replacing them requires major disassembly of the interior and costs alot.
2006 HONDA ODYSSEY VALUE HOW TO
It takes a while to figure out how to work it. Although the AC/heater works fine, the programming is weird and not user friendly. I have a couple of complaints for the manufacturer.
The seats are modular making it easy to carry cargo, groceries, bikes, coolers, tires, sports gear, camping gear, hunting equipment, etc.
2006 HONDA ODYSSEY VALUE PLUS
The inside of the van is huge and easily fits 7 adults plus 1 child in the middle second row. The ground clearance is average so I don’t recommend taking this vehicle on backcountry forest roads or off road, but good dirt roads are fine. We have found that Blizzak tires provide the best traction in the snow. This van is FWD only so slick roads can be tricky. After 12 years I have not noticed a decrease in performance. Otherwise, the car runs great and has plenty of power and acceleration even in the mountains.
The only recurrent problem we have had is with the power steering pump which had to be replaced twice (it was also under recall and we weren’t charged either time). There were several minor recalls that the dealer took care of no problem. We bought our 2006 Odyssey EX-L new in 2005 and have 160K on it.
