2011 Honda Odyssey – 5 Star Safety for your Family!

Hendrick Honda in Easley believes safety is the number one goal.  Honda makes that happen with  the 2011 Honda Odyssey  in fact the Odyssey just made history by becoming the first and only minivan to win the NHTSA’s (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) highest honor of 2011 Top Safety Pick.  The Odyssey also won the highest possible safety ratings for the IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety) and the NHTSA.  Not only did it pass stringent testing for front, side, rear and rollover crashes in protecting vehicle occupants, it even passed the rigorous roof-strength test.

The 2011 Odyssey was also one of the first vehicles to win the “Overall Vehicle Score” of 5 stars for crash scenarios, and 4 stars for the rollover rating as the federal New Car Assessment Program (NCAP), being applied for the first time to 2011 models. 

What makes the 2011 Odyssey so different? 

With increased interior functionality, more distinctive styling and better fuel economy have helped make the new Odyssey a winner among Honda and minivan drivers all around.  Aside from more comfortable seating and a more powerful, efficient 3.5 liter i-VTEC engine that delivers 248 horsepower, there is a rear entertainment system with a 16.2” ultra-wide split-screen display and auxiliary HDMI video input.  The “intelligent” i-MID (Multi-Information Display) has customizable wallpaper and integration of FM traffic data among many other features. 

All 2011 Odysseys are built with the Advanced Compatibility Engineering body structure, an exclusive body design that enhances passenger safety and crash compatibility in frontal crashes through a set-up of structural connections that reduce the force directed toward the passenger cabin.  The minivan comes standard with Vehicle Stability Assist, traction control, Anti-Lock Braking System, front driver’s side airbag, three-row side curtain airbags with rollover sensor, dual-stage, multiple-threshold front airbags and finally, a front passenger’s side airbag with an occupant detection system.

A truly safe Five Star American vehicle, the 2011 Honda Odyssey is designed, engineered and assembled in the United States.  To learn more about the 2011 Honda Odyssey or any other Honda cars, visit our Hendrick Honda Easley SC, showroom.  Our well-trained and efficient staff will help you navigate through our inventory of new and used Honda cars.  Take some time and check out some of our great online special offers on new and used cars.
