The 2023 Honda Odyssey is an eight-passenger minivan with five trim levels to choose from: EX, EX-L, Sport, Touring, and Elite. Its 280 hp 3.5-liter V6 engine is linked to a 10-speed automatic transmission that controls a front-wheel drivetrain. Every trim achieves an EPA-estimated 19 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway. Also, if you ever need to haul some equipment – a small trailer or boat – know that the ’23 Odyssey can tow up to 3,500 pounds.
This base trim feels anything but entry level since it has so many sought-after features, such as heated and power-adjustable front seats, tri-zone automatic climate control, LED exterior lights, rear privacy glass, proximity keyless entry, push-button start, a pair of USB ports (one for charging and the other for data), two 12-volt power outlets, and manual second-row sunshades. For infotainment, it has an 8-inch touchscreen system with all of the essentials and then some: Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Bluetooth hands-free phone and audio streaming, SiriusXM satellite radio, an SMS text messaging assistant, and a seven-speaker sound system.
The EX also gets the Honda Sensing suite of advanced driver aids (forward collision warning, collision mitigation braking, traffic sign recognition, adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, lane departure warning, and road departure mitigation), as well as automatic high beams, blind-spot monitoring with cross-traffic alert, and a rear-seat reminder.
The EX-L is treated with a few more upgrades like heated side mirrors, a moonroof, a power liftgate, position memory for the driver’s seat and side mirrors, leather upholstery, a sound-reducing windshield, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, an extra 12-volt power outlet, and two additional USB charging ports.
The Sport gets the contents of the EX-L, along with a more prominent appearance owing to its gloss-black alloy wheels and blacked-out grille. The interior gains ambient red lighting and is dressed in black leather with red contrast stitching.
The luxury factor is dialed up in the Touring, thanks to several higher-end features, such as front and rear parking sensors, a third-row USB charging port, a manual third-row sunshade, ambient LED interior lighting, a rear entertainment system with a 10.2-inch display, a cabin monitoring system (CabinWatch), and an in-cabin intercom (CabinTalk). The Touring’s infotainment system is enhanced, too, with navigation and a Wi-Fi hotspot.
The Elite lives up to its name at the top of the range as it bundles the most indulgent amenities. These come in the form of rain-sensing wipers, power-folding side mirrors, a hands-free liftgate, ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, a wireless phone charger, and sound-reducing side glass. The Elite also embraces a silky-smooth 11-speaker audio system for music aficionados to relish.
