Why should I also consider these?

If maximizing value is the priority, and you’re willing to sacrifice a little refinement, TheCarConnection.com recommends the Hyundai Entourage.

It does not offer every feature the Honda does, but the Entourage may have enough for you.

Otherwise the closely related Kia Sedona feels slightly sportier than the Entourage.

For storage and seating options, the Chrysler Town & Country (and its Dodge sibling, the Grand Caravan) are still the ones to beat; they offer in-floor storage and seating options not available on the Honda, and for keeping kids happy while on the road they’re a good choice.

The Toyota Sienna doesn't drive with the same enthusiastic personality exhibited by the Honda—its ride isn’t as smooth either—but of all the minivans listed here, only the Toyota Sienna can match the 2009 Honda Odyssey in terms of refinement and polish.

Finally, Ford doesn’t make a minivan anymore, but the Ford Flex, with its MINI-esque styling and seven-passenger interior, might be worth considering.

 
2009 Ford Flex
The 2009 Ford Flex is one of the most stylish new crossovers, with great passenger room and more features than some minivans.
 
2008 Chrysler Town & Country
If you’re shopping for a practical family hauler, the Chrysler Town & Country needs to be on your “must drive” list if only for the features it offers.
 
2008 Hyundai Entourage
You'll find the 2008 Hyundai Entourage at the intersection of Practical St. and Value Ave.
 
2008 Kia Sedona
The 2008 Kia Sedona is one of the least expensive minivans on the market, but inexpensive is different than cheap.
 
2008 Toyota Sienna
The 2008 Toyota Sienna minivan does almost everything right for the family, with a roomy, functional interior and great ride comfort, but there’s not a lot of personality.
