The very safe 2026 Honda Odyssey is a spacious minivan that handles like a much smaller vehicle. An abundance of helpful tech, like a built-in PA system and numerous driver-assist features, provides stress-free driving for adults with young passengers. Enjoy a test drive to see these features in action.
Smooth Acceleration With a 10-Speed Transmission
The Odyssey’s silky smooth 10-speed automatic transmission is standard on all trims. The large number of gear levels makes for less jerky shifting and more fuel-saving sweet spots for whichever speed you need. This sophisticated transmission combines with a powerful 280-horsepower V6 engine and the Eco Assist feature for effortless, fuel-efficient driving on highways and busy city streets alike.
Adaptable MagicSlide Seats
Honda engineers built this top-notch minivan for flexible ease of use in all situations. The MagicSlide Second Row seats illustrate this aim. These seats can easily be shifted from side to side or backward and forward into a large variety of different positions. You can bring children behind you closer or move these seats aside for more storage space or easier access to the back row.
Passenger Monitoring With CabinTalk
The 2026 Odyssey comes with a crystal-clear cabin PA system, which means no more yelling when trying to talk to passengers in the rear rows. Instead, you can calmly activate CabinTalk, which automatically mutes the speakers, and communicate quietly and clearly through seat-mounted speakers behind you. The top two Odyssey trims make passenger monitoring even easier with the excellent CabinWatch feature and rear-seat cameras.
Super-Safe Honda Sensing Features
Road safety is on the mind of every minivan driver. It’s also an absolute priority for the Odyssey’s engineers. As such, each trim has the full Honda Sensing safety bundle, which assists driving and protects you from harm in so many ways. A few included features are the blind spot information system with cross-traffic monitor, collision mitigation braking, traffic sign recognition, road departure mitigation, and much more.
Heated, Leather-Trimmed Front Seats
Don’t forget that road safety depends on driver comfort and alertness, too. To help with this, the front seats can be heated, and the driver’s seat has 12-way power adjustment with lumbar support and a two-position memory. The front seats are also leather-trimmed, and the steering wheel is leather-wrapped for an extra comfy, luxurious feel.
Tri-Zone Automatic Climate Control
It’s worth noting that you can also control the AC for each row independently with the Tri-Zone Automatic Climate Control that has second-row controls. With up to eight people in your Odyssey, this personalization of temperature, humidity levels, and air filtration keeps everyone happy on longer trips. These top-notch features are only the first few pages of the 2026 Odyssey’s story. Come and take this wonderful minivan for a spin at Trust Palmdale Honda in Palmdale, CA.
