5 Reasons to buy the 2015 Honda Odyssey

   At Smart Honda, we’re proud to offer the 2015 Honda Odyssey to not only our Davenport customers, but surrounding area drivers as well. If you’re looking to buy a minivan, then look no further than the new 2015 Honda Odyssey. This comfortable minivan has a lot more to offer than one might think. Here are the top 5 reasons you should buy a 2015 Honda Odyssey:


1. Superior Safety
 
   The 2015 Honda Odyssey is among the safest vehicles on the road. In 2014 the Honda Odyssey was the first minivan to earn the Institute’s top safety designation for good performance in all five IIHS crash evaluations. The Honda Odyssey has all the safety-features bells and whistles you could need. Standard on all models is a rearview camera system, an Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS), a Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) with traction control system, Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD), brake assist and a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). 

2. HondaVac

   Messy kids? Shedding Dog? While only available on the Touring Elite model, the HondaVac is a built-in vacuum cleaner that is stored in the back of the minivan. The hose is long enough to reach the front of the car allowing you to easily clean up those every day spills from snacking in the car. The HondaVac includes two attachments to make cleaning up even easier. We think it’s definitely worth the upgrade just for this nifty tool.

3. Nimble Handling and Performance

   With a car-like foundation and better handling, the 2015 Honda Odyssey has the performance and power that is not typically found in a  minivan. All models come standard with a six-speed automatic transmission which gives it confident acceleration and passing, and enough power to head up mountain roads fully loaded.

4. Spacious Interior

   With seating for up to 8 passengers, there’s tons of space for everyone in the 2015 Honda Odyssey. The second row can be used as three seats that can be adjusted to each side to allow for easy movement through the cabin. If you’re not looking to carry a lot of people, but need space for cargo, then the Odyssey has you covered. The second-row seats can be removed completely and the third-row seats can be magically tucked into the rear cargo area.

5. HondaLink Infotainment Suite
  
   Drivers don’t have to worry about upgrading to a nicer model if they want a good entertainment package. Want Bluetooth and Pandora Compatibility? These features come standard on all models and on the EX models and higher HondaLink with an audio touch-screen comes standard too.

Honda Safety

   We know that your passengers are important, which is why Honda looks past government regulations for safety. From drivers to passengers, pedestrians and other car occupants, we know the people who matter could be anywhere, so Honda studies real-world situations to develop new safety technologies for everyone.

ACE™ Body Structure

    This Honda-exclusive body design enhances occupant protection and crash compatibility in frontal collisions by distributing crash energy more evenly throughout the front of the vehicle.

Multiple Airbags

   Every Honda is equipped with dual-stage, multiple-threshold front airbags to help protect you in the event of a collision. Select models are equipped with SmartVent^® front side airbags and side curtain airbags with rollover sensor. With any car though, your seatbelt is your first  mode of protection in any crash.


Multi-Angle Rearview Camera with Dynamic Guidelines

 
  Get a better view of what's going on around you with three different angles: normal, top-down and wide.





Lane Departure Warning (LDW)

 














    LDW can detect un-indicated lane departures from detected lanes. Alerts will flash and sound to help bring your attention to correcting the lane drift.

Road Departure Mitigation (RDM)

   If your vehicle is detected drifting too close to the side of the road while driving 45–90 mph without a turn signal activated, RDM alerts you with rapid vibrations on the steering wheel. If you continue to leave the roadway, it can also apply steering torque and braking to help keep your vehicle in the detected lane.

Forward Collision Warning (FCW)

   Integrated with the Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS™), FCW uses a small camera mounted at the top of the front windshield to detect the presence of vehicles in front of you. If the FCW system determines that you are at risk of a collision with a detected vehicle, it activates audio and visual alerts to warn you⁵. If you fail to act, the CMBS will automatically apply brake pressure.


Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS™)

  Utilizing a millimeter wave radar sensor, CMBS can help bring your Honda to a stop when the system determines that a collision with a vehicle detected in front of you is unavoidable. A warning sounds and, if necessary, brake pressure is automatically applied
