Pros

Configurable second-row seats are very useful
Roomy for both people and cargo
Strong V6 engine and stable handling make it enjoyable to drive

Cons

Mediocre fuel economy
No power-folding third-row seats or surround-view camera system
Overly vigilant forward collision warning system is frustrating

What's new

Updated styling and technology features
Entry-level EX trim dropped
Part of the fifth Odyssey generation introduced for 2018

Overview

Minivans might not be considered cool or chic, but they are some of the most practical family cars on the market. Case in point, the 2025 Honda Odyssey has sufficient space to comfortably fit the whole family and their cargo. This hauler is packed with modern safety and tech features to ensure your family is in good hands too. It might not look like a fun vehicle to drive, but overall the Odyssey offers an enjoyable ride that leaves little room for complaint. For 2025, the Odyssey is updated with a restyled grille and front and rear bumpers on the outside, plus a few new features inside the cabin. Highlights include a larger center touchscreen, a new digital gauge cluster display, and a revised rear-seat entertainment system with a larger screen.

Cost to Drive^{Cost to drive estimates for the 2025 Honda Odyssey EX-L 4dr Minivan (3.5L 6cyl 10A) and comparison vehicles are based on 15,000 miles per year (with a mix of 55% city and 45% highway driving) and energy estimates of $2.95 per gallon for regular unleaded in Virginia.}

Edmunds spotlight: Cabin amenities for the win

Besides plenty of space in the Odyssey's cabin for both humans and baggage, the large sliding doors make loading and unloading so much easier. Honda outfits the Odyssey with the delightful trick second-row seats that allow you to slide — and remove — different portions of the second row into various, and convenient, configurations. Overall cabin comfort: Check. There's even an available cabin intercom system. A microphone picks up your voice and transmits it to the rear via the speakers or the rear entertainment system's headsets. Now you don't have to shout or look back to call some attention. How handy.

Competitors to consider

The Honda Odyssey battles the Chrysler Pacifica, the Kia Carnival and the Toyota Sienna for minivan supremacy. Each offers distinctive qualities that make them great alternatives, and all except the Odyssey offer a hybrid powertrain. Of course, there's also a myriad of SUVs that can suit your family-hauling needs very well. Make sure to read our Expert Rating below to see if the Odyssey is the best fit for you.

edmunds TESTED

Rated for you by America's best test team.

Performance

8/10

How does the Odyssey drive? The Odyssey just might be the exception where it is OK to use the words "minivan" and "fun" in the same sentence. Its V6 engine offers enough power for your merging and passing needs even when you've got the cabin full of passengers. In our testing, the Odyssey Elite accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in 7.6 seconds, essentially an average time for a V6-powered minivan.

Precise steering and stable braking and handling give the Odyssey a confident presence both on the highway and along tighter roads. Is the Odyssey sporty? Not really. But it is well sorted and enjoyable to drive. Everything feels cohesive.

A smooth-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission unobtrusively chooses the proper gear for the situation. Standard steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters are nice if you want to shift for yourself. If we had to nitpick, it'd be that the engine stop-start system (it turns the engine off at stoplights to save fuel) is a bit unrefined, but it can be disabled.

Comfort

8/10

How comfortable is the Odyssey? The Odyssey's front seats are great for logging miles on extended drives. The second-row seats are equally suited for kids or adults. Third-row legroom is limited, but two grown-ups can survive back there for shorter distances. Our Odyssey Elite's 19-inch wheels likely gave it a firmer ride than the smaller available wheel options. (Smaller wheels mean more absorbent tire sidewalls.) But generally speaking, there aren't many bumps the Honda can't absorb with ease.

Wind and road noise in the Odyssey isn't intrusive. The available cabin intercom system is also pretty cool. A microphone picks up your voice and broadcasts it to the rear of the van via the speakers or through the rear entertainment system headsets. Now you can say, "Stop touching your sister!" without having to turn your head around to shout it.

Interior

8.5/10

How’s the interior? A minivan should make your life easier, and the Odyssey does. Sliding rear doors will always beat the traditional doors of a crossover SUV when it comes to getting kids in and out. The height of the first two rows of seats makes them easy to slide right into. The second-row seats recline and also slide sideways with only moderate effort, allowing superior access to the third row and the ability to move two kids in car seats closer to a parent for better reachability.

Both the driver's seat and the steering column offer a wide range of adjustment. Those with longer legs, however, might wish for extended thigh support from the lower cushion. Our biggest gripe is the mediocre visibility up front and over the shoulder. The windshield roof pillars and side mirrors are bulky. It's a disappointment that the Honda is the only minivan to not offer a surround-view camera, just a rearview camera.

Technology

7.5/10

How’s the tech? The Honda's 9-inch touchscreen is smaller than the ones found in competitors and is mounted far away on the dashboard. It is also powered by Honda's older infotainment system rather than the new Google-based one found in newer Hondas, which is disappointing. The native navigation system has dated-looking graphics, but thankfully you can use your smartphone's apps pretty easily thanks to wireless connectivity for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay integration. The instrument cluster screen also lacks the customizability found in most digital screens; don't count on it to show you much info. What saves the Odyssey is its plethora of USB-C charging ports spread throughout the cabin, including three in the third row.

The other tech in the Odyssey is hit-or-miss. The rear cabin camera monitor (in lieu of the sunglass mirror) and cabin intercom are certainly useful. But some of the advanced driver aids, such as adaptive cruise control, respond sluggishly and are prone to false positives. We avoided using them.

Storage

9/10

How’s the storage? Few vehicles can best a minivan here. The storage well behind the third row is deep and perfect for grocery bags. The third-row seats are lifted and lowered manually, which requires a little muscle, but the strap handle system is easy enough to use. The Odyssey has an impressive max capacity of 144.9 cubic feet of storage with the third row lowered and the second-row seats taken out. The second-row seats are bulky and hard to remove, yet their side-to-side adjustability is a helpful storage solution if you don't need a fully flat floor.

When it comes to installing car seats, the Odyssey sets the bar. Not only are the lower car seat anchors extremely accessible, but booster-age kids will also find it easy to put on their own belts.

Continue reading Edmunds Expert Rating below

Fuel Economy

6/10

How’s the fuel economy? The EPA estimates the Odyssey Elite, which is what we tested, gets 22 mpg in combined city/highway driving. That's average for a minivan. On our real-world evaluation route, which is primarily composed of highway driving, we observed 21 mpg. This indicates the Odyssey might underperform with respect to the EPA's estimates.

Value

7.5/10

Is the Odyssey a good value? The Odyssey Elite trim level that we tested is pricey, no question. But the fundamentals of the Odyssey are available for much less. Even the base trim captures the Odyssey's best qualities: smooth power, comfortable seating and an open, airy cabin. Warranty-wise, Honda is on par with competitors — most offer three years/36,000 miles of basic and five years/60,000 miles of powertrain coverage. Roadside assistance is also typical and provided for the length of the basic warranty.

Wildcard

8/10

As a kid-mobile, the versatility of a minivan is unbeatable. As road trip transport for five or six adults, the Odyssey is nearly as accommodating. And for the weekend home-improvement warrior, it's a cavernous, lockable space for all your stuff. Not convinced it's cool? This one also drives like a car and has flexible seating, USB ports galore, and in-cabin tech offerings to keep everyone entertained.

Which Odyssey does Edmunds recommend?

We think it's hard to beat the base Honda Odyssey EX-L. It's well equipped with about all you need for daily family shuttling and longer trips on the highway, such as sliding second-row seats, leather upholstery and wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto connectivity. The higher trims get you some nice extras, but the EX-L offers a great foundation.

2024 Honda Odyssey Touring 4dr Minivan (3.5L 6cyl 10A)

After being disappointed by the super-hyped Toyota Sienna, my family thought it might be fair to give the Odyssey a try. It was far more comfortable in ride quality than the Sienna, and the seats were also amazing.. Its lackluster MPGs belong in decades past, and its unexplainable NON-ceiling air vents in the rear will leave still-rear-facing children far more uncomfortable than …
