The 2006 Honda Odyssey officially went on sale today (10 August, 2005). Here is the official statement of changes from Honda:
Honda has delivered an all-new completely re-engineered Odyssey minivan for 2005: a clean-sheet design that improves upon every single one of the Odyssey’s existing strengths through enhancements in styling, premium features, advanced technology and driving performance – built on the foundation of Honda quality, safety and environmental leadership. For the 2006 model year, the Odyssey adds:
- 3.5-liter VTEC V-6 engine on LX and EX (244 horsepower* @ 5750 rpm and 240 lb-ft.* of torque @ 5000 rpm)
- 3.5-liter i-VTEC V-6 engine on EX-L and Touring (244 horsepower* @ 5750 rpm and 240 lb-ft*. of torque @ 4500 rpm)
- Touring model now available with DVD Entertainment System, previously available only in combination with a navigation system
- XM™ Satellite Radio added as standard equipment on all Touring models, previously available only in combination with a navigation system
- Leather trimmed steering wheel and shift knob added to all EX-L models.
- Tether anchors added to 3rd row outboard seats
*For the 2006 model year, all Honda horsepower and torque specifications have been updated to reflect revised Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) J1349 (Rev 8/04) net calculations that went into effect in January of 2005. These new calculations reflect a number of significant changes in the way horsepower and torque are measured and may cause SAE net horsepower and torque totals published in 2006 media materials to differ from the figures published in previous years. To avoid confusion, all 2006 Honda press materials will specify “SAE net (Rev 8/04”) after all horsepower and torque figures to denote adherence to the new standards. |
