2026 Honda Odyssey

2026 Honda
Odyssey

Even as minivans faded from popularity, the 2026 Honda Odyssey has long been a go-to for families. It still uses a standard V6 engine and highlights a cabin that’s built for comfort and flexibility, with seating for up to eight and generous cargo capacity. Honda’s configurable Magic Slide seating allows for quick adjustments as needs shift between passengers and cargo, and specialized features such as an available in-car video monitor and intercom make it easy to keep eyes and ears on little passengers.

Standard amenities like leather upholstery, heated front seats, and a power moonroof give the Odyssey an upscale edge at all trim levels. Adding to the model’s value is the complimentary Honda Service Pass program, providing one year of scheduled maintenance, including an oil change, tire rotation, and multipoint inspection.

Trims and Powertrain

Honda offers four versions of the 2026 Odyssey: EX-L, Sport, Touring, and Elite. The 280-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 engine and front-wheel drivetrain are managed through a ten-speed automatic transmission. Cargo space is ample, starting with 38.6 cubic feet behind the third row; when the last row is folded down, the capacity increases to 92.3 cubic feet. Behind the front seats, the Odyssey can handle up to 158 cubic feet. With the proper equipment, it can tow up to 3,500 pounds. The EPA-estimated fuel economy for all trims is 19 mpg in city driving and 28 mpg on the open road.

Standard Equipment

The least-expensive Odyssey, the EX-L, is hardly a base edition as it comes with leather upholstery (first-row and second-row outboard seats), heated front seats, tri-zone automatic climate control (with second-row controls, humidity control, and air filtration), a power moonroof, proximity keyless entry, a power tailgate, wireless device charging, and power-sliding side doors. The three rows of seating consist of a 12-way power driver’s seat, an eight-way power passenger’s seat, Magic Slide second-row seats, and a 60/40-split folding third-row Magic Seat. Honda also equips the EX-L with LED exterior lighting with automatic headlamps, LED fog lights, push-button ignition, a 7-inch digital instrument display, rear privacy glass, second-row sunshades, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, heated power side mirrors, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, four USB ports (two each in the first and second rows), and 18-inch alloy wheels.



The Sport-L adds an athletic vibe to the Odyssey with black leather upholstery with red stitching, ambient LED cabin lighting in red, exclusive exterior accents, two USB ports in the third row, and 19-inch gloss-black alloy wheels. The Touring builds on the premium touches of the EX-L with third-row sunshades, ambient LED cabin lighting, 19-inch alloy wheels, a rear-seat entertainment system, CabinWatch interior monitoring, the CabinTalk intercom system, and additional technologies (covered below in the safety and infotainment sections). The Elite takes things truly upscale with perforated leather upholstery (first-row and second-row outboard seats), heated and ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, a hands-free tailgate, power-folding side mirrors, and rain-sensing windshield wipers.

Advanced Driver Aids and Safety Technology

Honda Sensing is installed across the Odyssey range. The suite consists of forward collision warning, collision mitigation, lane departure warning, lane keeping assist, road departure mitigation, blind-spot monitoring, cross-traffic alert, adaptive cruise control, automatic high beams, traffic sign recognition, and a rear-seat reminder. Front and rear parking sensors are included on the Touring and Elite. Also standard are an array of airbags, anti-lock brakes, stability control, traction control, and a multi-angle rearview monitor with dynamic guidelines.

Infotainment and Connectivity

A 9-inch touchscreen houses the Odyssey’s infotainment command center, bringing together wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, Bluetooth, SiriusXM satellite radio, SMS text messaging, and the HondaLink smartphone app. The Touring and Elite also have navigation, Wi-Fi hotspot capability, and access to Honda connected services. Audio is channeled through a 160-watt seven-speaker sound system in the first three trims, while the Elite is upgraded to a 500-watt system with 11 speakers.
