2018 Honda Odyssey

In every element of its design, the 2018 Odyssey was created to meet the needs of families in their everyday lives, providing unprecedented comfort, confidence-inspiring performance, and advanced family-friendly technology.

The Odyssey's signature lightning bolt beltline now provides an even more elegant design element with newly hidden sliding rear door tracks and a new "floating" D-pillar design.

Inside, the 2018 Odyssey features high-grade materials including a soft-touch instrument panel. The driver's meter features a new 7-inch, full-color TFT display, and in the center of the dash there is an available 8-inch high-resolution Display Audio touchscreen (EX and above).

A major innovation to family-friendly cabin seating flexibility is the Odyssey's available new Magic Slide second-row seats, easily reconfigurable for optimal passenger comfort, people- and cargo-hauling flexibility, and easy access to the third row even when one or two rear-facing child seats are placed in the second row. Use modes include:

The 2018 Honda Odyssey is powered by a 3.5-liter, direct-injected i-VTEC V6 engine with Variable Cylinder Management. Peak engine output is 280 horsepower (+32 HP) and benefits from the advanced capabilities of its two available new transmissions -- a 9-speed automatic and, for upper grades, an all-new Honda-developed 10-speed automatic, the first of its kind for a front-wheel-drive vehicle, delivering unmatched levels of responsiveness and refined performance in a minivan.

These advanced new powertrains, together with a more rigid and lightweight body, new chassis technology, and Odyssey's sleek and aerodynamic new design result in unsurpassed dynamic performance and top-of-class EPA fuel economy ratings.

Honda's Intelligent Traction Management system adds a Snow mode and combines with Agile Handling Assist and a more powerful braking system for improved all-weather handling and control.
