Overview

Written by automotive expert Mark Takahashi

2/6/2026

Before the rise of the SUV, minivans ruled supreme among family-minded shoppers, and for good reason. There's simply no better way to transport eight passengers in comfort, along with plenty of their cargo. The 2026 Honda Odyssey is easily one of the best choices in this class, offering tons of smart features that make the daily carpool or long road trips that much more bearable. Check out our Expert Rating below to see why the Odyssey is one of our favorites.

Edmunds spotlight: Flexible seating that Honda calls Magic

The Honda Odyssey's One-Motion Magic third-row seats fold into a deep cargo cavern behind them with a good yank of the strap behind their seatbacks. That's not all that uncommon among minivans, but the speed and ease are somewhat unique. The one seating feature that really sets the Odyssey apart from rivals is the second-row Magic Slide seats. The middle seat is easily removed, allowing the outboard seats to slide out of the way to make accessing the third row much easier. You can also keep them in place for easier access to child seats, keeping the center open for third-row access or for longer cargo hauling.

Competitors to consider

The Toyota Sienna tops our minivan rankings, thanks to its fuel-efficient hybrid powertrain and available all-wheel drive. The Honda Odyssey is a close second place, while Kia's Carnival and its hybrid variant get some points for their SUV-like styling. For those with shorter driving distances, the Chrysler Pacifica Plug-in Hybrid offers up to 32 miles of electric-only driving, though its battery pack eliminates the Stow 'n Go folding rear seats that the standard Pacifica enjoys.

Edmunds Expert Rating

edmunds TESTED

Driven, tested, rated by automotive expert Brian Wong

Very Good

7.3

out of 10

We drove the 2026 Honda Odyssey on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.

Driving experience

6.2/10

How does the Honda Odyssey drive? The Odyssey's V6 engine offers enough power for merging and passing even with a van load of passengers. In our testing, the Odyssey Elite accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in 7.6 seconds, average for a V6-powered minivan. A smooth-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission unobtrusively chooses the proper gear. If we had to pick a nit, it'd be that the engine stop-start system is a bit unrefined, but it can be disabled.

Precise steering and stable braking and handling give the Odyssey a confident presence on the highway and along tighter roads. The Odyssey isn't quite sporty, but it is well sorted and enjoyable to drive. The 19-inch wheels on the Odyssey Elite we tested emphasized small bumps more than the smaller wheels with larger-sidewall tires. But generally speaking, there aren't many bumps the Honda can't absorb with ease.

Our biggest gripe is the mediocre visibility up front and over the shoulder. The windshield roof pillars and side mirrors are bulky, and this is the only minivan to not offer a surround-view camera system. The Odyssey comes standard with a dated-feeling suite of driver aids that overall respond sluggishly and are prone to false positives.

Comfort

8.9/10

How comfortable is the Honda Odyssey? The Odyssey's front seats are great for logging miles. The second-row seats are suitable for kids or adults. Third-row legroom is limited, but two grown-ups can survive back there for short distances. Both the driver's seat and the steering column offer a wide range of adjustment. Those with longer legs, though, might wish for extended thigh support from the lower cushion.

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 the rear entertainment system headsets.

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 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 up front.

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

In-cabin tech

7.8/10

How’s the tech? The Honda's 9-inch touchscreen is smaller than those found in competitors and is mounted far away. It also uses 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 wirelessly for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay integration. The instrument cluster screen lacks the customizability found in most digital screens, and it doesn't show much info. What saves the Odyssey is its plethora of USB-C charging ports spread throughout the cabin.

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.

Buying Tips for the 2026 Honda Odyssey for February

Thinking about purchasing the 2026 Honda Odyssey? Here are some tips to help you secure a great deal:

Special financing rates can further sweeten the deal, offering a promotional rate as low as 4.24% for both 36 and 48-month terms, allowing buyers to save significantly compared to standard market APRs.

Storage & cargo

10/10

How’s storage and cargo? 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.

There's plenty of small-item storage inside. Up front, there's a spot below the center stack for handbags, and the center storage bin is huge. Thirsty? You've got cupholders everywhere for all the rows.

Value

6.7/10

Is the Honda 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, matching the typical 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.

Continue reading Edmunds Expert Rating below

MPG

3/10

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.

X factor

7/10

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.

2026 Honda Odyssey trim level differences

The 2026 Honda Odyssey is an eight-passenger minivan available in EX-L, Sport-L, Touring and Elite trim levels. A 3.5-liter V6 engine (280 horsepower, 262 lb-ft of torque) pairs with a 10-speed automatic transmission to power the front wheels. Compare the 2026 Honda Odyssey trim levels in-depth.

Which Odyssey trim does Edmunds recommend?

If you're like most minivan shoppers and prioritize convenience and ease of shuttling several children around, we recommend the entry-level EX-L trim. You get a ton of useful features, including those slick Magic Slide rear seats, power-sliding doors, and a comprehensive suite of advanced safety features.

No better than my 2018 odyssey. Different problems

GdavidC, 09/19/2024

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

2024 touring. Update at 24 months 33,000 transmission torque converter is getting a lot worse and it isn’t shifting as smooth as it used to. Honda service dept says they can’t do anything unless it is throwing a code. The computer says everything is fine. 😟 Also, gas mileage is not as good as my 2018. 60 mph on highway averages around 26 instead of 30. The van is still the best pick for … my needs, but not by much. I don’t know how much longer I will put up with it before i trade it in on a new one. 9 months 16,000 miles Sliding door on drivers side rattles when van is hot. When I finally got dealer to work on it they made it worse. Intermittently the Engine doesn't idle smoothly or when accelerating normally (but runs smooth if you run it hard). Sometimes you have to press hard on the brake to get it to start. Cruise control is programmed so that it does not TRY to keep the speed on set point after coasting down a hill, but instead, it will let it get 2 mph below the set point before it back shifts & gives gas to accelerate back up to speed. It does this instead of gradually giving gas to try and maintain the speed it was set at as soon as it goes below the set speed. Lane Keeping Assist ( LKAS ) is a joke and can be dangerous. The biggest complaint is when entering a left curve, it will help you enter the curve early right across the line and then warn that you are out of your lane. It also does this on right turns but not as much. Driving straight down a road if you get on either line, it may not help pull you back but it will warn you that you are getting out of your lane on the dash. Collision avoidance system puts on the brakes for no reason driving down the interstate. I have had the road departure mitigation system activate while I was in the center of the lane on a two lane road with a trailer truck behind you! (Must be kept off for safety reasons.) Adaptive cruise control works great but may apply brakes during passing another car on a two lane road. Also, if someone is turning off the road the adaptive cruise control continues to apply brakes long after the car has made the turn and is no longer in your lane. I have 16,000 miles on mine now and now torque converter is developing a problem. Sometimes the lockup clutch doesn't lock in if you have been costing for several seconds, the RPM is low and you apply gas to accelerate. I have seen it go up to 3500 RPM in 7 gear driving 45 MPH. I have to let off the gas for a second then go again to get it to lock in properly when it does this. The good stuff is it has a better computer than my 2018 and it responds quicker. (Except for the door rattle) it is quieter in the van than my 2018 EX-L. It has good power when you put your foot down and get the RPMs up. So far the brakes are excellent and the idle stop works properly even though it hesitates on restart sometimes. (They don't give you the choice to turn idle stop off until you turn it back on. It is always active when you start the car until you press the button again). UPDATE: Road Departure preventive is dangerous & must be kept off. I will apply the brakes for no reason (even with a big truck right behind you). Lane keeping assist is re-tarded. It starts helping you turn into a corner on the interstate too much and then complains when you go over the line that you are getting out of your lane. The automatic cruise control will put on the brakes randomly when you are passing another vehicle on the interstate. At 20,000 miles the torque converter has started malfunctioning a little but not enough to throw a code. The Drivers side sliding door makes creaking noises sometimes. The second time I took it in for this, they said that they adjusted it and now it is much worse. When accelerating, there is a slight variation in thrust. Can't tell if it is the engine or transmission. I have taken the van in three times for all these problems with no results. The last item I don't like is the cruise control is programmed to not try to keep the speed right on the set speed. It will let it go 2 miles per hour under the set speed then back shift and accelerate back up to the set speed over and over anytime the terrain isn't just flat. At 27,000 miles, I am already starting to think about trading and wondering what I am going to try in stead of a Honda.

We have a limited number of reviews for the 2026 Honda Odyssey, so we've included review for other years of the Odyssey since its last redesign.
