Which Odyssey does Edmunds recommend?
Buying an Odyssey largely comes down to picking a trim level that matches your budget and the features you want. The SE trim is tempting, but for the best mix of features we'd opt for the EX-L. It costs a good deal more than the EX but adds desirable extras in a daily family mover and weekend distance runner including heated leather seating, a power liftgate, a chilled storage box and forward collision warning. You can opt for navigation or a rear-seat entertainment system but not both. To save money, though, we'd skip both and get by with smartphone/aftermarket navigation and then tablets for entertainment. If you prefer factory-spec, you'll need the Touring or Touring Elite. They include both systems standard.
Full Edmunds Review: 2017 Honda Odyssey Minivan
Driving
4.0Natural driving dynamics have always been an Odyssey strong suit. As minivans go, driving enthusiasts will probably like this one the best. The V6 isn't class-leading, but it's powerful enough for most duties.
Comfort
4.0Plush seats and good noise isolation make for great comfort on long trips. The 2017 Honda Odyssey's suspension handles big bumps well, but smaller ones aren't as easily smoothed over.
Interior
5.0The smartly designed cabin accommodates people and cargo with equal effectiveness. Superbly flexible seating layout makes the Odyssey highly configurable. There's even a vacuum cleaner on board in this top-trim model.
Utility
5.0You'd be hard-pressed to find another vehicle that matches the Odyssey's carrying capability. Sliding doors and low step-in height give Odyssey the advantage over similar three-row crossover SUVs. When loading children and car seats, it's no contest.
Technology
Befitting a large family vehicle, the Odyssey comes with an impressive level of information, entertainment and connected technology, including navigation, rear-seat audio and video, and HondaLink app integration (internet radio, social media). No on-board Wi-Fi/LTE hotspot connection, however.
