    Honda Upgrades Odyssey to a 10-speed

      ...Also gets a 25th Anniversary Package...

    The minivan is not quite dead yet and the Honda Odyssey, one of the five remaining minivans still in production, is entering its 25th year on the market. Since its launch in 1995, the Odyssey has sold more than 2.7 million units. Honda is quick to point out that most of these are retail sales and not fleet.  The Odyssey has been the number one retail seller in the segment for 9 years running.

    For 2020, all Odysseys will be upgraded to a new 10-speed automatic transmission. This is mated to the existing 280 horsepower 3.5 liter V6 driving the front wheels. 

    Also for 2020, Honda is offering a $1500 25th Anniversary package that includes a chrome roof rack, body side moldings, chrome rear bumper protector, extra 25th Anniversary badges, illuminated sill plates, and for an additional $1,300, special 19-inch wheels.

    The Honda Odyssey is built in Honda's Lincoln Alabama manufacturing plant alongside the Pilot, Passport, and Ridgeline.

    • I probably need to back up and watch it sometime.  Everyone has heard about it, but I've yet to see it.  On the "to do" list.
    • Amazing musician, if he is a doctor, WOW, he also could have been a Performer, love the song and the movie. Phantom of the Opera is a very soul moving movie imho. His other covers are equally amazing.  
    • First, I had a little bit of video from violinists on the QM2 playing various pieces of music.  I relayed this passage, which sounded familiar, to friends who couldn't peg what it was because the video was a short segment where I was also panning the fairly grandiose Queen's Room.  Finally, someone pegged it and said it was something important from "Phantom of the Opera" ... nothing I'd care to sit through.  At any rate, I found one musician also covering "All I Ask of You" on a violin. This YouTube can really make a person appreciate this instrument, this instrumental piece, and the precision needed to pull this off.  The musician is a young doctor, from what I can glean through the "about" info, and plays the violin to relax.  He does incredible work!
    • MECHANICAL PHOTOS This is the engine bay and the hood uses a prop rod.  The engine is a 2.5 liter 4-cylinder (HEV) augmented by an electric motor. The label shows conformance to all emission standards for model year 2025 and that OBD II just keeps going The orange fittings and plumbing apparently indicate what is part of the hybrid model, as was the case in a Honda Accord Hybrid I drove during the last year - - - - -  END OF PHOTOS
    • INTERIOR PHOTOS This is the view of the front of the cabin as seen from the driver's door This is the view of the front of the cabin as seen from the passenger's door This is one view of the "fixed" displays in the dash and the lower part of the center gauge, which can be customized by toggling;  note the symmetrically placed temperature, time, odometer, and range digital readouts This shows the controls found on each side of the steering wheel and, with the base LE trim, the steering wheel is urethane This shows the push button ignition, the infotainment screen's placement, the climate control panel, and the two lower center air vents This shows the gear selector, the cubby with ports, driving mode, parking brake release, and cup holders The tidy clustering of control buttons to the left of the steering wheel comes in handy Rear seat legroom appears to be decent for the average sized adult passenger Looking over one's shoulder shows a pleasing roofline and window outline, engaged headrests, and the contrasting upholstered areas in the LE model, not to mention good visibility The trunk capacity appears to be in line for this vehicle and for this genre
