The 2006 Honda Odyssey has very few new features.  The EX and LX both have a V-6 engine, while the EX sports VCM, variable cylinder management.  The Touring Trim model has an optional rear-seat entertainment center.

All 2006 Odyssey models have electronic traction control via ABS with their (EBD) Electronic Braking Distribution system.  Drivers really enjoy the looks of the Odyssey minivan with the sleek, attractive design.  The fact that the 4-wheel independent suspension makes driving smoother, the more quiet ride also appeals to many user reviewers.  It has excellent fuel efficiency, low emissions, and with the new 60/40 backseat folded down, incredible cargo space.

Owner reviews show a high overall rating for the 2006 Honda Odyssey, though some people have expressed real disappointment.  Does it make you wonder, where do the "lemons" come from?  Now with standard side airbags, this vehicle has been awarded 5-stars in all crash test results.  Last year Odyssey review indicated that curtain side airbags have been included.  This minivan comfortably seats up to eight people, and is probably going to keep its reputation as the best mid-size SUV on the road.
