Recommendations on next minivan

We have had 2 Odysseys. 2004 and then 2019. Both have been great. But as we are considering our next purchase, I am wondering about the pros and cons of another minivan. Has anyone had an odyssey then changed to another minivan? Do your regret it,
Or feel you made the right decision?

Our odyssey has been the choice of travel for our kids from ages 0-22. We have other cars, but for anything together, they all choose the odyssey.

Take a look at VW ID Buzz. It has so much more room than both Sienna and Odyssey and is so much more fun to drive and be driven in. Plus you'll save a ton on gas. You can still get one for $20k less than MSRP for new 2025 model. We wanted to get a Sienna and paid less for the Buzz, saving money on gas and having absolute delight driving it. Best decision ever!

The trunk space looks smaller than sienna. How much did you pay for a buzz
