Two popular family vehicles on the market today are the 2015 Chrysler Town & Country and the Honda Odyssey. Both brands are known for their high-quality products, lengthy list of standard features, and powerful mechanics.
When you're buying a new vehicle, choosing between the two can be a bit of a challenge. In this vehicle comparison, we'll look at the interior features and entertainment features to see which of these two minivans is the better choice for your family.
Interior Comforts
If you're looking for an extensive list of standard features, the 2015 Chrysler Town & Country has plenty to offer with second- and third-row Stow 'n Go seats with third-row tailgate seats, a leather-wrapped shift knob and steering wheel, a removable center front seat console, second-row bucket seats that fold into the floor, and leather-trimmed bucket seats.
Of course, these are just the comfort features. The convenience features include an interior observation mirror, rear grocery bag hooks, a universal garage door opener, three-zone climate control, a 115-volt and a 12-volt auxiliary power outlet, power windows, and sliding power doors.
The 2015 Honda Odyssey also offers a list of standard features, including a 60/40 split third-row seat, power windows, a 12-volt power outlet, power door locks, and a front bag hook. Unfortunately, you'll miss several of the features you can find in the Town & Country, including the universal garage door opener, three-zone climate control, power doors, and the 115-volt power outlet that makes long trips so much easier.
Entertainment Technology
Standard entertainment features abound in the 2015 Chrysler Town & Country and include a whole list to keep the family entertained all day long. These features include a Radio 430 AM/FM/CD/DVD/MP3/HDD system, a 6.5-inch touchscreen display with a 40-GB hard drive and 28-GB available storage, a remote USB port, an audio jack input for mobile devices, Bluetooth streaming audio, steering wheel-mounted audio controls, Uconnect voice command with Bluetooth, and a one-year complimentary subscription to SiriusXM satellite radio.
In comparison, the Honda Odyssey comes with a much shorter list of standard entertainment features, which includes a 240-watt AM/FM/CD audio system with a USB interface, Bluetooth streaming audio, and an auxiliary input audio jack. Not only will you miss out on the Uconnect voice command system with Bluetooth, but you'll also lose the DVD and HDD compatibility and SiriusXM satellite radio you would have had you'd gone with the Town & Country.
The Verdict
Comparing vehicles is tough work, but thankfully we've come to the conclusion. Overall, these two minivans are pretty comparable, but there are some serious differences in entertainment technology and convenience features-both of which are important for families in Burlington and Chittenden County. Chrysler wins in this comparison with their extensive list of features designed to keep you and your family riding in style and luxury.
