Over the years, the Odyssey’s power, ride and handling have earned it high praise from Australian auto clubs and magazines. The all-new Odyssey sets the standard even higher, with a more powerful and efficient engine, and a smoother, more stable ride.
The all-new Honda Odyssey is streets ahead of its rivals. More car than troop carrier, this stylish, low-slung seven-seater is powerful, comfortable, easy on petrol and very fun to drive. Sure, it’s all about the family. But you’ll love driving it too.
Forget the boxy look of the station wagon, instead indulge in the Odyssey’s cutting edge design.
Exterior
Be the envy of the "away game" car park
With its sharp lines and low centre of gravity, the Odyssey looks and feels like a sports wagon, not a boxy van or truck. It has all the space you want for kids and cargo—wrapped in the best of contemporary automotive design.
Standard 16" and 17" alloys
High-performance alloy wheels are standard equipment on both the Odyssey and Odyssey Luxury models. So you get sharp handling and sharp looks too.
Very stylish aerodynamics
Odyssey’s sleek frame delivers real aerodynamic efficiency. That helps it sip just 8.9 litres of petrol per 100 km.*

Electric sunroof
The Odyssey Luxury’s large power sunroof lets you and your passengers enjoy the warmth of the sun and cool, quiet fresh air circulation.
Chrome door handles
Good looks are all in the details and they’re a lot more than skin deep. The Odyssey’s chrome door handles add a touch of flash as well as greater durability.
HID headlights
The Odyssey Luxury’s high-intensity gas discharge (HID) headlights (also know as Xenon) produce brighter, whiter light than halogens, helping to make night driving safer and easier.
Chrome-tipped exhausts
Dual chrome-tipped exhausts give the Odyssey a very sporty, performance look, even when your kids are making funny faces out the back window.
Interior
In this seven-seater, everyone's happy
You’re raising a family, not shuttling passengers. So the Odyssey’s “V-shaped” interior seating arrangement creates a feeling of togetherness. Everyone can see each other, and the third row has a clear view to the front. There’s plenty of leg, head and elbow room for everyone. Mums and dads will especially appreciate the stylish ergonomics up front.
Serious driver comfort
Everything is perfectly positioned for Odyssey drivers, from the brightly illuminated information displays to the intelligently designed centre console. Spacious and supportive front seats and a high-quality sound system add even more calm and comfort, no matter how many kids are in the back.
Climate control
Every Odyssey offers the “set and forget” convenience of climate control. The Luxury even lets you choose the preferred ambient temperature for the first and second rows with tri-zone climate control.
Premium sound system
All Odyssey models feature six speaker sound systems with steering wheel-mounted controls. The Odyssey Luxury adds a 6-CD stacker for even more convenience.
Very clever storage
Glove and centre console boxes. Six cup and four bottle holders. Spacious side pockets and more. Odyssey gives you all the storage you need for all the sizes and shapes of your stuff.
Tilt / telescopic steering
The Odyssey’s steering wheel easily adjusts to the preferred stance of every driver, with fast tilt and telescopic positioning on all models.
Performance and Economy
Impressive efficiency – 8.9 litres per 100km*
Compare Odyssey’s fuel efficiency to other seven-seaters — and to smaller wagons and sedans. You’ll see how Honda’s commitment to “Drive Every Drop” has made this spacious seven-seater a smart choice economically and environmentally.
*Fuel consumption figure is based on ADR81/02 combined test results.
2.4L i-VTEC engine
The “i” in “i-VTEC” stands for intelligent. It’s a good description for the very clever technology that gives Odyssey high levels of power and torque with amazing fuel efficiency.
Power when you need it
The Odyssey delivers an impressive 132kW of power at 6500rpm and 218Nm of torque at 4500rpm. When you’re climbing a hill, loaded with kids, luggage and more, you’ll really appreciate what those Kw's and Nm's mean.
Very agile handling
With a turning circle of just 5.4 metres at the wheel centre (about the same as the Civic), and a compact, rigid body, this seven-seater has all the right moves to make driving fun.
Low-emission vehicle
The Odyssey emits only 212 grams of CO2 per kilometre. In recognition of its low greenhouse gas emissions compared to other similar vehicles, the Honda Odyssey is proud to be an LEV classified vehicle.
5-speed automatic transmission
The Odyssey’s advanced 5-speed automatic transmission features Grade Logic Control. This system enhances driving efficiency by factoring in the rate of acceleration or deceleration on hills or gradients to help determine optimal shift points.
Safety
Safety features that set Odyssey apart
With the Odyssey, you won’t have to pay extra for features that make you and your family feel safe. Stability and traction control, six airbags, ABS brakes, active front head restraints and more. They’re all standard equipment on all Odyssey models.
3-point (lap/sash) seatbelts for everyone
Every seat position in the new Honda Odyssey has a 3-point (lap/sash) seatbelt. So even with seven people inside, the Odyssey offers everyone the enhanced protection of lap and shoulder restraints.
Airbags for Everyone
The Odyssey’s dual-stage, dual-threshold front airbags provide important protection for the driver and front passenger by optimising the airbag deployment to match the speed and severity of a crash. They also help to minimise injuries that can sometimes be caused by the airbags themselves. Plus, front side airbags and 3-row side curtain airbags provide an impressive line of lateral defence.
Stability control comes standard
Honda’s Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) with Traction Control and Motion Adaptive Electronic Power Steering (MAE) systems can detect oversteering, understeering or traction loss, and help restore your intended path. These systems offer critical assistance in difficult driving situations, such as hard cornering or swerving to avoid a collision.
Very clever anti-lock braking
The Odyssey’s Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS), Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist (BA) safety features work together to ensure that no matter how hard you brake, you will retain steering control in the event of an emergency stop.
A body designed for safety
The Odyssey is built with Honda’s advanced G-Force Control (G-CON) vehicle body technology. It’s designed to absorb the energy of a collision, helping to reduce its impact on the passenger cabin and provide occupants with increased protection.
