2026 Honda Odyssey at Don Moore Honda in Owensboro, KY

Families shopping for a three-row minivan in Owensboro, KY, have plenty of choices, but the 2026 Honda Odyssey keeps making a strong case for itself at Don Moore Honda. It combines a V6 powertrain, flexible seating, thoughtful storage, and family-first features that feel useful every day. In a segment where the Toyota Sienna leans on hybrid efficiency, and the Kia Carnival pushes style, the Odyssey stays focused on space, comfort, drivability, and smart packaging.

Trim Breakdown

Honda offers four well-defined trims for the 2026 Odyssey, each building on the last with additional comfort, style, and technology.

  • EX-L
  • Sport-L
  • Touring
  • Elite

Interior Features and Passenger Space

This is where the Odyssey earns its reputation. The cabin is roomy, practical, and easy to configure, with seating for eight passengers and head restraints at every seating position. Magic Slide second-row seats with armrests and a walk-in feature are standard, and the multi-function second-row center seat adds flexibility for families that alternate between hauling kids and carrying extra gear. The one-motion 60/40 split third-row Magic Seat folds flat to open a large cargo hold, while the rear storage well adds another layer of utility.

Passenger volume is 160.1 cubic feet. Cargo volume measures 32.8 cubic feet behind the third row in standard configuration, 86.6 cubic feet behind the second row, and 140.7 cubic feet behind the first row, with maximum figures of 38.6, 91.0, and 155.8 cubic feet, respectively.

Comfort equipment is broad even before you move into higher trims. All models include tri-zone automatic climate control with second-row controls, humidity control, and air filtration, rear-seat heater ducts, illuminated vanity mirrors, map lights in all rows, floor mats in all rows, beverage holders in all rows, a lockable glove compartment, a cargo-area light, cargo-area bag hooks, lower front-row seatback pockets, a front-row bag hook, and a conversation mirror with sunglasses holder. Power windows with auto-up/down for the front and second-row windows are also standard, along with active noise cancellation and illuminated steering-wheel-mounted controls.

Seat comfort also scales nicely by trim. Heated front seats are standard across the lineup. The driver gets a 12-way power seat with four-way power lumbar support and two-position memory, while the front passenger gets an eight-way power seat with four-way power lumbar support. EX-L uses leather-trimmed seats, Sport-L and Touring use leather-trimmed seats with piping, and Elite adds perforated leather-trimmed seats with piping plus ventilated front seats. Second-row integrated sunshades are standard, Touring and Elite add integrated third-row sunshades, and Elite adds a heated steering wheel. Sport-L swaps in red ambient lighting, while other trims use blue ambient lighting. Touring and Elite also add upper front-row seatback pockets, second-row lower seatback pockets, and HomeLink.

Interior dimensions are generous in all three rows:

  • Headroom: 38.7 inches in the first row, 39.2 inches in the second row, and 38.3 inches in the third row
  • Legroom: 40.9 inches in the first row, 40.9 inches in the second row, and 38.1 inches in the third row
  • Shoulder room: 63.1 inches in the first row, 61.6 inches in the second row, and 60.0 inches in the third row

  • Seating capacity: Eight passengers

Exterior Design and Utility

The 2026 Odyssey looks clean and familiar, but Honda backs up the styling with useful hardware. Standard exterior equipment includes LED headlights with auto-on/off, LED daytime running lights, an active shutter grille, taillights with integrated LED light bars, rear privacy glass, an acoustic laminate windshield, power sliding doors, smart entry with Walk Away Auto Lock, a roofline spoiler with integrated brake light, a fin-type roof-mounted antenna, heated power side mirrors with integrated turn indicators, memory, and reverse gear tilt-down, a one-touch power moonroof with tilt feature, and a power tailgate with programmable height.

The Sport-L is the visual outlier, thanks to 19-inch gloss-black alloy wheels and exclusive styling details inside and out. EX-L rides on 18-inch machine-finished alloy wheels, while higher trims move to 19-inch wheels. All trims use all-season tires, and every model includes a compact spare tire. Touring adds parking sensors, which are useful on a vehicle this size, and Elite adds auto-dimming side mirrors, power-folding side mirrors, acoustic laminate front door glass, acoustic laminate rear door glass, and a hands-free power tailgate with programmable height.

The body rides on a MacPherson strut front suspension and compact multi-link rear suspension with trailing arms, and Honda includes intelligent traction management with Snow mode, which should matter to Kentucky drivers dealing with winter weather.

Available exterior paint colors include:

  • Crystal Black Pearl
  • Modern Steel Metallic
  • Smoke Blue Pearl
  • Solar Silver Metallic
  • Platinum White Pearl
  • Radiant Red Metallic II
  • Sonic Gray Pearl

Exterior measurements are equally useful to know:

  • 205.2 inches long
  • 78.5 inches wide
  • 69.6 inches high
  • 118.1-inch wheelbase
  • 39.64-foot curb-to-curb turning diameter

Performance and Driving Hardware

Honda keeps the mechanical story simple, and that is part of the Odyssey’s appeal. Every trim uses the same 3.5-liter direct-injected V6 with a 3,471-cc displacement, 24-valve SOHC i-VTEC valvetrain, Variable Cylinder Management, Idle-Stop, Eco Assist, Active Control Engine Mount System, and direct ignition with immobilizer. Output is 280 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 262 lb-ft of torque at 4,700 rpm. The engine has an 11.5:1 compression ratio, an 89 x 93 mm bore and stroke, and a 6,900-rpm redline. Honda recommends regular unleaded fuel, and the fuel tank holds 19.5 gallons.

The 10-speed automatic transmission includes shift-by-wire operation and paddle shifters. It sends power to the front wheels and is geared for both launch and highway efficiency. Steering is handled by a dual-pinion electric power-assisted rack-and-pinion system.

The Odyssey also uses front and rear stabilizer bars, 2.97 steering-wheel turns lock-to-lock, a 14.35:1 steering ratio, and power-assisted ventilated front disc and solid rear disc brakes. That setup helps avoid the disconnected feel that some large family vehicles develop.

EPA estimates stay at 19 mpg city, 28 mpg highway, and 22 mpg combined across the lineup.
