Competition

The 800-lb. gorillas of this segment no longer wear wings or a rams head on their noses, but an “H” and a highly stylized “T.” While Dodge may have the advantage in the sheer amount of stuff offered in its vans, the Honda Odyssey and Toyota Sienna have two other primary advantages. First, the Japanese vans are simply put together better, with higher quality materials, and offer a better driving experience. Second, while you have to fully load your Dodge to get the most power, the Honda and Toyota come with it standard. Note that Hyundai’s Entourage and Kia’s Sedona are also very tough competitors.
