Nissan Quest vs. Honda Odyssey Review

Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. It costs about the same to get the Honda Odyssey to the dealership as the Nissan Quest. Regarding fuel economy, the Honda Odyssey is a tad better than the Nissan, but not by much. The Odyssey won't save you much money at the pump compared to the Nissan. With respect to MSRP, the Honda Odyssey costs approximately as much as the Nissan Quest (though the Nissan Quest is a bit cheaper).

Utility
The Odyssey will quite certainly prove friendlier than the Nissan Quest for those of you with frequent kid-cargo. There's no clear winner between the Honda Odyssey and the Nissan Quest in terms of hauling capacity.

Convenience
You likely won't have to visit your friendly gas station more often with the Nissan Quest than with the Honda Odyssey, because both offer similar ranges.

Comfort
While the front cabin in the Nissan Quest offers a bit more head room than the Honda Odyssey, there frankly isn't much of a difference. The ampler interior dimensions of the Nissan Quest make it significantly roomier for your passengers than the Honda Odyssey.

Dimensions
The Nissan Quest's tank is approximately the same size as the Honda's, though the Honda's is a tad larger. The Odyssey and the Nissan compete for the same parking spaces.

Handling
With its tighter turning circle, the Honda Odyssey is quite certainly more agile than the Nissan Quest, something to consider if you do a lot of city driving; on the flip side, bear in mind that a vehicle with a tight turning circle may feel a bit twitchy on the highway.

Drivetrain
The Nissan Quest's engine isn't much more massive than the Honda Odyssey's.

Warranty
The Nissan and the Honda Odyssey have the same basic after-sale protection.
