More than just a means of getting from point A to B, Honda promises a driving experience that’s both safe and comfortable for families in its best-selling MPV.

Created with the family in mind, each technologically advanced feature of the new Honda Odyssey makes driving a walk in the park. From running errands to picking up the kids from school, every ride’s an enjoyable one in this family car.

A SMOOTH, FUEL-EFFICIENT RIDE

Equipped with Honda’s Earth Dreams Engine, the seven-seater Odyssey runs like a dream. Despite its size, the car runs smoothly and efficiently thanks to the 2.4-litre DOHC i-VTEC system engine. Not only is it lighter, the engine has an improved fuel efficiency of 7.7 litres for every 100km.

NO HASSLE

Dual-power sliding doors make opening the car doors with hands bogged down by grocery bags easy. A light tug activates them. The low floor platform with rear-door steps also makes the back seats a breeze for the little ones to clamber on.

INTERIOR COMFORTS

The spacious cabin, with ample headroom and legroom, makes each ride a luxurious one for the family. No need to fight for space as each seat is an individual cradle ottoman seat. Passengers in the middle row can stretch out by reclining their seat and resting their legs on the footrest – while still giving every other passenger the luxury of personal space. An Electrostatic Touch Climate Control Panel also keeps the cabin temperature at the right level, perfect for our hot and humid climate!

SAFETY FIRST

But what’s a comfortable ride without ensuring the safety of your family? Honda knows this, and has dedicated features to keeping the driver and passengers safe. The Smart Parking Assist System with multi-view wide-angle cameras helps you navigate your way into tight parking spots. And with the Cross Traffic Monitor, a signal sounds when there is an approaching car from the back – useful when you are reverse-parking. On the road, the Blind Spot Information technology is a boon. It detects oncoming traffic in the next lane and warns you with beeps and flashing indicator lights on the side mirrors.

KEEPING YOU ENTERTAINED

Keep long car rides tantrum-free with the rear-seat entertainment system. With a nine-inch television screen, it will keep your passengers entertained while you focus on driving safely.

The best way to experience the Honda Odyssey is right behind the wheel. Head down to a Kah Motor showroom (370 Ubi Road 3 and 255 Alexandra Road, sales hotline: 6840-6888) to test-drive your family’s new ride.
