When we heard that the 2014 Honda Odyssey would be getting the world's first in-car vacuum,
we had to check this thing out for ourselves. Called HondaVAC, this
tidy little sucker was co-developed with Shop-Vac, and it's actually
pretty neat. It comes standard on Odyssey's top-trim Touring Elite model
and can be fitted with a wide range of attachments all housed in the
cargo area. Honda notes
that the vacuum hose is long enough to reach surfaces in every part of
the Odyssey's cabin, and that it will even run for a full eight minutes
after the vehicle is turned off.
Good thing, then, that Honda chose to show off the new 2014 Odyssey here at the New York Auto Show, as Autoblog west coast editor Michael Harley clumsily managed to spill some snacks all over the cargo area (we tried to convince him to give himself a hickey, but he declined on grounds that his wife might not let him attend any more auto shows). Take a look at the video below
