What Owners Say
"Drives nicely, very maneuverable for its size."
Anonymous, CT (2000 Honda Odyssey)"Versatility, whether in use around town or on a long road trip. We only wish that Honda was able to design "stow and go" middle captains chairs like the Chrysler and Dodge vans. That is the one shortcoming (Chrysler must have a patent or something else preventing other minivan manufacturers from copying the stow and go seats). Driving experience has always been comfortable and car-like, including at highway speeds, unlike the full-size Ford van we once owned, which drove and felt like the tru..."
Chad N., FL (2000 Honda Odyssey)"Even after 18 years of ownership, this vehicle still accelerates smoothly and strongly, with smooth shifts. It handles less like a van and more like a well-crafted sedan."
Chad N., FL (2000 Honda Odyssey)"Good acceleration and handling for an old girl."
Ken H., ON (2000 Honda Odyssey)"After 18 years the acceleration is still excellent. The handling is aliitle bitt sloppy"
Siegfried H., BC (2000 Honda Odyssey)"Acceleration is great with the V6 engine, and it handles very well."
Kari W., CO (2000 Honda Odyssey)"Drive almost as well today as it did 18 years ago when purchased!"
Anonymous, KY (2000 Honda Odyssey)"Acceleration is decent and handling is good"
Anonymous, IL (2000 Honda Odyssey)"Only fair acceleration but great handling for a 18 year old vehicle."
Steve L., AZ (2000 Honda Odyssey)"See prior comments."

James N., CA (2000 Honda Odyssey)"Good handling in emergency braking."
Claude W., CA (2000 Honda Odyssey)"Still runs fine, problems are coming."
WILLIAM D., IL (2000 Honda Odyssey)"perfect"
Anonymous, FL (2000 Honda Odyssey)"Acceleration is excellent, but the handling is unexpectedly good, especially for a vehicle of this size and weight: it feels handles like a much smaller car."
ALGIS N., NY (2000 Honda Odyssey)"For the size of the Odyssey it accelerates well in traffic and it also handles well."
