The Perfect Vehicle for Families of All Sizes - Explore the 2020 Honda Odyssey

SUVs, sedans, and pickup trucks have their uses when it comes to work, play, and commuting. But when it comes down to sheer usefulness and family-friendly transportation, it's hard to beat a minivan. At McCarthy Honda in Overland Park, we're proud to present our customers with one of the best minivan options around - the 2020 Honda Odyssey.

A minivan is great for families for a number of reasons. Not only can it seat the whole family, a minivan is also lower to the ground than a large SUV, which means its easier for little legs to climb in and out of, and it's easier for moms and dads who need to load and unload bulky car seats. Plus, the sliding rear doors mean you'll never have to worry about your child flinging the backdoor open and possibly damaging a vehicle next to yours.

The 2020 Honda Odyssey

The Honda Odyssey is a continuation of the model's fifth generation. As with previous models, this year's version continues to seat up to 8 people comfortably, and it continues to offer a tremendous number of innovative features and creature comforts. However, longtime fans of the model from Olathe or Shawnee, KS will notice one nice upgrade for 2020 - a smooth, ten-speed automatic transmission. Previously only available on the top two trims, this upgraded transmission is now standard across all trim levels.

Trim Levels and Power for the 2020 Honda Odyssey

Choosing which 2020 Honda Odyssey is best for you comes down to your personality and the number of features you want on your vehicle. There are six trims available, with an increasing number of features as you move up through the list. Options include:

• 2020 Honda Odyssey LX
• 2020 Honda Odyssey EX
• 2020 Honda Odyssey EX-L
• 2020 Honda Odyssey EX-L with Navigation and Rear Entertainment System
• 2020 Honda Odyssey Touring
• 2020 Honda Odyssey Elite

Regardless of which trim you go for, expect every minivan in this list to come powered by a standard V6 engine. This 3.5-liter powertrain puts out 280 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque.

Family-Friendly Features that Set the 2020 Honda Odyssey Apart

There are any number of vehicles available today that claim to offer spacious three-row seating and the features families want. But, thanks to its sliding rear doors, flexible seating (with second-row seats that slide side to side), and easily accessible storage solutions, the 2020 Honda Odyssey really is ideally suited for families.

The 2020 Honda Odyssey also comes with a variety standard features to comfort your family and keep you safely connected, including Bluetooth and USB connectivity, power-adjustable front seats, and automatic climate control.

Need a few more features? Getting them is as easy as moving up trims. Honda has a long list of available features to make every ride easier. Some of our favorites that our Lenexa customers appreciate include:

• Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
• Leather upholstery
• Blu-Ray Player
