2002 Best Minivan - Honda Odyssey
Of course, all these improvements only serve to make what was already the best minivan on the market even better. No other minivan manufacturer has managed to match the ergonomic superiority, mechanical reliability, and all-around quality found in the Honda Odyssey.

Honda also boasts about the Odyssey's engine, a 255-horsepower V-6 that's the most powerful you can get in a minivan. Soccer moms won't care about the specs or the bragging rights, but the boost from the V-6-standard on all versions, from the base model to the $35,000 "Touring" line-provides lots of built-in reassurance. It allows quick acceleration when getting up to speed on the highway and keeps the Odyssey sprightly when fully loaded down with people or stuff. Though the new Odyssey has more aggressive, SUV-type styling on the hood and grille, it remains one of the more minivanny minivans on the market-few singletons or empty-nesters will be rushing out to buy one. One shortcoming: There's no all-wheel drive version, which will disappoint true automotive multitaskers. But the array of small innovations and the superb packaging prove that sometimes as much engineering expertise goes into family vehicles as into Formula One racers.

Up until recently, Honda had always operated on a furious redesign cycle. Just moments after an all-new car's release, designers would get right back to work spending sleepless nights working on its replacement, always due in exactly four years. Take the Odyssey. With the right size, right power, the world's most convenient third-row bench, and running on parts built to the higher standards of passenger cars (instead of trucks), the outgoing model was the first minivan to nail the formula. Because every competitor lacked at least one of those qualities, the Odyssey seemed to be the natural leader.
