Is the Honda Odyssey a van or SUV?

I was telling my friend that my wife and I are looking at buying a new Honda Odyssey, and he started making fun of me. He says the Honda Odyssey is a minivan, but I thought it was an SUV. Who’s right?

Your friend is right. The Honda Odyssey is a minivan, not an SUV. Regardless, he shouldn’t be making fun of you for considering it.
Sure, minivans have a certain reputation, but it’s not for nothing that the Odyssey has hung on where other minivans have gone the way of the dinosaur. Why settle for a more desirable—though often less functional—SUV, when you can have features you’ll only find on the Odyssey, like:
  • CabinWatch and CabinTalk that let you see everything that’s happening in the passenger cabin
  • Fully reconfigurable seating
  • A full suite of standard driver assists
  • Surprisingly spritely acceleration
Plus, with a starting price of just $38,635, you’ll get a lot more room than an SUV for a lot less money. Plus, the Odyssey’s high safety ratings could equal a big discount on
