The rear seats, however, have scant legroom for passengers. It’ll be fine for kids, but adults will need whoever’s sitting up front to adjust their seats forward — meaning putting two grown-ups in the back will result in four people being uncomfortable. Stuffing a fifth person in between the outboard backseat passengers would be truly unpleasant; the bench just isn’t wide enough. The backseat isn’t oddly positioned or too low, there just isn’t enough space to keep everyone comfy.

Where the Odyssey excels is in its interior space and packaging. Up front, the cockpit is roomy and airy, with a centrally mounted electronic gear selector that frees up center console space for large-item storage. The front seats are comfortable enough for long-distance trips. In the second row, the standard bench seat — which can fit three car seats — easily converts into captain’s chairs with the middle seat removed, which is when the real magic happens.

The rear-drive version does indeed coax more from its pack than its all-wheel-drive siblings can. Tesla estimates the new model’s range at 350 miles (or 362 with the available soft tonneau cover in place, smoothing the truck’s polygonal aerodynamic profile), 25 miles more than the AWD Cybertruck and 49 more than the Cyberbeast. Tesla also claims the rear-driver will accelerate from 0-60 mph in 6.2 seconds versus 4.1 for the AWD truck and 2.6 for the Cyberbeast.

Opting for the hybrid gets you a version of the same hybrid system used in Honda’s CR-V and Accord hybrids; it uses a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gas engine and two electric motors. In the Civic, the hybrid powertrain is good for 200 horsepower and 232 pounds-feet of torque; that’s a 50-hp bump compared to the base 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine and 20 hp more than the 2024 model’s optional 1.5-liter four-cylinder.

2024 Chevrolet Suburban diesel may be capable of towing a house, and is nearly as big as one. But it gets better mileage than a raised ranch, working out to 25mpg on my watch. https://t.co/wrLJN4pl2E
