As an Odyssey owner with kids I'm going to need something large enough to haul people and gear around.
I did a quick check on CarConnection between a 1997 Previa and a 2021 Sienna and their database says that the Previa is substantially shorter but has substantially more internal cargo volume.
The comparison may not be 100% fair. The crash standards have improved since 1997 and the Sienna has bigger seats, more insulation, and other comfort features. Plus there there may even be changes in measurements by TheCarConnection. Still, I hope that the MEB platform will yield a very efficient envelope, like the mid-engine of the Previa did.
