2021 Honda Odyssey vs. 2021 Toyota Sienna
While both the Honda Odyssey and the Toyota Sienna are popular choices, we here at Hennessy Honda of Woodstock, know that the Odyssey is the better choice for your family. This versatile ride beats out the Sienna in terms of superior technology, performance and fuel efficiency, and space. Read on to learn more about all of the things the Odyssey can do.
Luxury & Convenience
 

Both the Toyota Sienna and Honda Odyssey, share similarities in eight-seats however, the 2021 Honda Odyssey offers the kind of spacious comfort only a minivan can provide. And the Odyssey is one of the comfiest. The power-adjustable front seats on all trim levels are well-padded and comfy, and on the EX-L and above they come shod in leather in the first and outer second row seats. That row is comfy too, especially with the armrests on all but the base trim. 


  • Top tier Elite: Offers up luxury touches, including perforated leather for the first and seconds row seats, exclusive dash room trim with a deep metallic finish, a new machined and painted shark-gray-19 alloy when design and auto dimming side mirrors. 
  • Spreading Out: Minivans are great for long trips, especially with larger families. The combination of cargo space and passenger space makes traveling  a breeze. In the 2021 Honda Odyssey, there is 40.9 inches of legroom in both the front and second rows. The Sienna is only 40.5 inches of front row legroom and 37.6 inches of second row leg room. That gives less room to stretch. That means more rest stops along the way.
