[@davewilson7602]

I’m convinced the Honda V6 is underrated on power, I wonder if it would get more if you hooked it up to a dyno

[@Jay-me7gw]

If anything I think the KIA was overrated. The Odyssey had a significant power and weight advantage over the Toyota. The Toyota gets off the line faster with the electric motor torque but once the Honda motor was at the top of first gear at peak HP it was going to walk away from the Toyota, which it did.

[@fountainflyer7749]

It's not the power, it's the 10 speed transmission. I owned a 2019 Elite and it was a joy when passing on 2 lanes or the interstate. It was great in mountainous areas too as it was programmed wonderfully.

[@vigninnouhinnoude2792]

Always Honda in termofspeed, maneuverability, précision an drivability, even in minivans category ! They are the best. I'm not surprised at all because I own a 19 Pilot Touring and I know they both shared same engine but the Odyssey has better transmission.

honda engines are amazing. always have been. I was rooting for the Carnival since it has the most hp but trannie and weight do not help. Who in the Toyota dept. thought 245hp and 200 torques will work in such a heavy vehicle? Great race! keep them coming Sam!

[@ouch1011]

From a start up until about 40-50mph, the Toyota was in front of the Honda. I think it has plenty of power for daily use and freeway merging, plus gets better mpg. This is a minivan, not a race car. The Toyota also has better 0-60 than most small SUVs and economy cars

[@rairadrai]

In daily use the Hybrid is quicker and easier to drive around town. Not many people will hold the throttle to the floor for 15 seconds.

[@aimxdy8680]

[@fountainflyer7749]

@@ouch1011 It doesn't get "better" mpg, it CRUSHES the others. Real-world people see MINIMUM 31 mpg combined from what I hear, with many reporting 35mpg + (because they don't drive like me). We would break 23mpg in our 2019 10-spd Elite running 75-80 on 500+ mile road trips. Wife averaged 22ish. I averaged 18-19mpg. Drove the Toyota before purchasing the Honda (bought Honda used), and it felt great, as you mentioned, in normal use.

[@jefferybaxter1225]

Hi Sam. This was a good race comparison. Usually minivans don't race each other, but this was a good one. The Honda Odyssey has a better sounding exhaust than the other two. As for the race, the Honda Odyssey got all wins due to the fact that it's lighter in weight and the transmission shifts better. The Kia Carnival lost badly against the Honda Odyssey because it's too heavy. It would be interesting for the Kia Carnival to race against the Toyota Sienna. If that race would've taken place, the Sienna I think would beat it.

The Honda 3.5 is a great engine. Wish it was still available in the Honda Accord. Also, I would love to have seen the Subaru Outback XT (not the standard 2.5, but the XT 2.4 turbo) included in this group. That would have made it even more interesting.

[@adventurer4188]

I had a 2020 version of the odyssey for a 2 year lease, it surprised my neighbors civic si, the power delivery instant & continuous. The spacious interior and reliability was amazing, averaging 25 mpg on a cross country drive with 4 passengers and a dog! The Toyota was carrying a lot more weight and that hybrid electric motor won in short sprints at the line, and the 10 speed aided a passing gear with electric torque to hang on a bit with Honda. I’d say hybrid is the future of automotive power, however Honda built that NA V6 (old tech) with an amazing punch!!! I agree styling does go to the Kia.

[@mholmes9262]

We spent 22 yrs in various minivans (2 Sienna's and 2 Odyssey's), with 5 kids who are now mostly grown. When we were "stuck" with them, I preferred the Honda because it's the "sportiest" and has the best driving dynamics. But now that everyone is growing up (16 and 19 yr old still at home, both have their own cars) and we have little actual "need" for a minivan, I sometimes think about buying one again just for road trips (we currently have a '20 F150 Platinum EB stage 1, '22 Model 3 Perf. and a '17 Accord Sport that my youngest drives). But the one I would buy is the Sienna Hybrid, for it's comfortable ride quality and excellent MPG's. The hybrid powertrain is powerful enough to get the job done without frustration and, to me, it's the most pleasant one to ride in, very quiet and smooth. You do have to get used to the weird exterior styling, but you're already driving a minivan so you've already "given up on life" anyway haha.

[@AGhostRiderR]

Lmao. I was waiting for the surprised face and the fun smirk people always get when they get into a car that's faster than expected. It's faster than most sports cars from 80s and early 90s.. glad someone showed the vtec power that car has love the sound it makes when vtec kicks in!

Not surprising with a car with that sleeper V-6 makin 278hp and 251tq and weighs 3600 lbs, the automatic on average goes to 60 in 6.2 and the 6-spd Manual goes 0-60 in 5.6-5.8 on average and u dont have to worry as much about wheel spin as much as those heavy charger. Still a torquey little car, has better power to weight ratio than the last Mitsubishi Evo.
