Price
Right off the bat, the price for the Toyota Sienna
is lower than the Honda Odyssey. The base MSLP is $28,850 for the Sienna,
compared to $29,400 for the Odyssey. Comparably equipped, the Sienna still
comes out ahead by $191. Save your wallet some trouble and go with the swagger
wagon.
Cargo Space
If you're driving a minivan, chances are you have
plans to fill up the back with sports gear, pool supplies, camping gear, and
more. The cargo space in the Sienna is superior, with a maximum of 150 cubic
feet compared to the Odyssey's 148.5 cubic feet. Those extra inches will really
come in handy when you need to fit in that one last luggage bag before you head
off on your next adventure.
Passenger Space
Speaking of interior room, your passengers will be
able to stretch out more in the Sienna. With more headroom in all three rows,
more shoulder room in all three rows, and more or equal hip room in all three
rows, the kids won't be fighting about who's on who's side on those longer road
trips.
Engine Power
Last but not least, having a little more
engine oomph never hurts. The Sienna boasts more power than the Odyssey, with
266 horsepower compared to 248 horsepower respectively. Blast off and leave
them in your dust.
