STORY

The Honda Odyssey is a minivan launched in 1994; early Japanese generations were car-based with conventional doors, while North American models grew larger with sliding doors. The nameplate diverged into distinct Japanese and North American lines, with the US version becoming a full-size minivan built in Alabama.
