Basics About the 2023 Honda Odyssey

Power and Performance2023 Honda Odyssey | Bowie, MD

With its naturally aspirated 3.5-liter V-6 engine producing 280 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque, the Odyssey offers best-in-class performance. It’s packed with advanced technology, such as active noise cancellation, traction management, and Honda’s Eco Assist fuel-saving system. The shift-by-wire 10-speed automatic transmission that the engine pairs with smoothly delivers power and helps achieve an EPA rating of 28 mpg highway.

The Odyssey is undoubtedly one of the most agile minivans on the market due to Honda’s fine tuning of its MacPherson strut front suspension and compact multi-link rear suspension. Its direct, well-balanced steering makes it easy to maneuver around tight city streets.

Passenger Cabin

Whether you need to haul your family or cargo, the Odyssey excels at the job by offering spacious seating for eight occupants and impressive configurability. Magic Slide second-row seats move out of the way to provide quick access to the third row with a simple pull of the lever. While the second-row seats are easily removable, the cabin’s one-motion 60/40 split-folding third row can be folded down to provide up to 158 cubic feet of cargo space. 

As for creature comforts, the Odyssey comes standard with tri-zone automatic climate control, air filtration, heated front seats, and a 12-way, power-adjustable driver’s seat with 4-way lumbar support. Most models add genuine leather upholstery and a one-touch power moonroof.

Multimedia and Connectivity

Every Odyssey features a customizable 8-inch infotainment touchscreen system as standard equipment. The system includes Apple CarPlay/Android Auto smartphone integration, Bluetooth HandsFreeLink and streaming audio, and HD Radio. Touring and Elite models offer a mobile Wi-Fi hotspot and the CabinWatch rear seat monitor. They also sport a rear entertainment system with a 10.2-inch screen where the kids can watch movies or play games.

An available 11-speaker, 550-watt premium audio system enables passengers to enjoy home theater-quality sound, no matter where they’re seated.


Driver Assists

Safety is important to any family vehicle, which is why Honda has equipped every Odyssey with plenty of driver assistance technologies through its advanced Honda Sensing suite. Standard assists include a forward collision warning, lane departure monitoring, and a rear cross-traffic alert. A standard traffic sign recognition system helps you stay aware of speed limits, construction zones, and potential road hazards.

From its easy drivability to a wealth of convenient features, the Odyssey has everything you’re looking for in a minivan and much more! Visit DARCARS Honda today and check out the latest model and other great vehicles!
