Norio Igarashi

The joy of driving in every seat

Having created the minivan category with its first generation, the Odyssey had pursued its potential as a passenger car without clinging to that category. In developing the fourth generation, Igarashi and his team took "a pleasure that resonates with the heart" as their theme, and pursued exhilaration and dynamism not only in driving but also in space and styling. They aimed for a car that shares joy in every seat: even more driving fun for the driver, and the pleasure of the ride for those in the second and third rows.
