Paul Moak Honda, Jackson MS Honda dealer, will introduce the 2011 Honda Odyssey later this year.

At its unveiling during the Chicago Auto Show, the concept Odyssey minivan received rave reviews.  The buzz has continued to grow, and Paul Moak Honda plans to offer a strong supply of Odysseys to meet the anticipated demand from Jackson MS Honda consumers.

The Odyssey still boasts what most expect from a minivan — the family-friendliness, the utility, and the spaciousness — but adds good looks and bold aesthetic flourishes that are dramatic departures from the conventional minivan.

Lower and wider than last year’s model, the new Odyssey offers comfortable seating for eight, with more shoulder room and plenty of different configurations for fitting additional passengers, car seats or cargo.  An all-new wide mode, for instance, allows three child car seats to fit across one row.

Compared to the current Odyssey, the Concept’s slightly lower roofline (-1.0 inch) and wider stance (+1.4 inch) contribute to a sleeker, stronger and more dynamic presence with improved aerodynamics that help increase fuel economy.

Outside the Odyssey will turn heads with its “lightning bolt” beltline, which gives the minivan a distinctive look that sets it apart from the other minivans on the road.

“The Odyssey established its reputation by providing families with what they most want in a minivan – great functionality, an emphasis on safety and good fuel economy,” said Vicki Poponi, assistant vice president of American Honda product planning. “Odyssey then further delighted customers with its surprisingly engaging, fun-to-drive and dynamic nature. The next-generation Odyssey promises to take these strengths to a higher level while adding more style and personality.”

The Odyssey has already earned critical acclaim. Recent accolades include the Edmunds.com 2010 “Top Recommended” minivan award, U.S. News and World Report 2010 “Best Minivan for the Money” award, Automotive Lease Guide 2010 “Best Minivan for the Money,” the Kelley Blue Book award as one of the ten “Best New Family Vehicles of 2009″ and “2009 Best Resale Value Award” in the van category.

Jackson Honda shoppers who are interested in what the newest Odyssey offers, should look no further than Paul Moak Honda for more information.
