Honda Japan – New Odyssey

Saturday, September 20th, 2008

Honda Japan announced on 19 Sep (today) that they will unveil the newest version of the Odyssey.  http://www.honda.co.jp/ODYSSEY/new/   If you have been following the Odyssey in Japan, you know that it has gotten lower and more stylish as it ages.  The new Odyssey looks to be in the same style with minor cosmetic changes.  The big news will hopefully be in the user interface.  The webpage touts a new all-around view camera similar to the one Nissan has been promulgating over the last year.  The camera allows you to have a bird’s eye view of your vehicle as you tackle difficult parking situations like narrow spots to back into, or parallel parking.  The cameras also allow you to see down both sides of the car for narrow streets, and see into cross traffic when exiting narrow driveways or the like.

I will visit the dealer in October to let you know what I think about the new model!
