This review will reveal favorite family features, exact specifications, performance stats, and trim levels, including the new Odyssey Sport. Keep scrolling to see what’s new for 2023.
Family Features
A minivan has a big job to do, taking care of kids and their parents. Kelley Blue Book praises the 2023 Honda Odyssey for providing a general easiness for the whole experience from driving to riding.
However, the support doesn’t stop there. Parents will find helpful devices that assist with parenting duties. With cameras, CabinWatch allows Mom and Dad to monitor the kids on the middle or back row. CabinTalk adds the ability to talk to the kids without turning around.
Unique to this Honda minivan, multi-zone audio controls allow parents to hear their infotainment system while the back rows enjoy a quiet atmosphere. In yet another example, the Magic Seat can be used to position second-row seats to keep quarreling kids apart.
To help with long trips, a rear-seat entertainment system is standard on top trims and available on others. A rear seat reminder prompts caregivers to check the second and third rows before leaving.
Trim Levels
Like the 2022 Honda Odyssey, the 2023 model comes in EX, EX-L, Touring and Elite trims. On the other hand, the 2023 lineup deletes the 2022 LX and adds the Sport slotting above the EX-L. Kelly Blue Book praises the Odyssey’s generous standard equipment and well-considered interior.
Utilizing the newest HondaLink interface, a 8-inch touchscreen is simple to customize and use. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto provide advanced phone-specific integration. Other elements include SiriusXM connectivity, HD Radio, SMS text messaging, and USB ports.
Easy entry is assured no matter what since power-slide passenger doors are standard on the EX. Magic Slide second-row seats make it especially easy to reach the third row.
Expressive Styling and Exterior Colors
The all new Odyssey Sport has the most interesting look in the lineup. Honda adds gloss black trim to the front grille, headlights, and fog lights. More gloss black trim is along the sides on the B-pillar and C-pillar. There’s a gloss black trim element on the taillights, and the 19-inch wheels are painted Berlina Black.
Among the exterior colors, shoppers will find Pearls in Platinum White, Crystal Black, and the new Sonic Gray. The racy choice is Radiant Red Metallic.
Sport and EX-L Models
The L in EX-L trims is definitely luxurious. The driver’s chair, front passenger seat, and outboard second-row seats are covered in handsome leather upholstery. A moonroof lets in natural light. To quiet the cabin, there’s an acoustic windshield.
Plus there are more features that parents and kids will love. The driver gets memory-enabled power seating. The second row gains two USB ports, and the third row gains a 12-volt outlet. A power tailgate adds utility.
Ready for family adventures, the 2023 Honda Odyssey Sport has a distinctive look inside and out. The features list is much like the EX-L, but sporty red stitching dresses up the leather upholstery on the front two rows and steering wheel.
Accent lighting adds a red glow to the doors, dash and front footwells. The black theme continues with the roof pillars and headliner. You can get financing advice from your Earnhardt Honda dealer.
Top Luxury Liners
Stepping up to the Touring or Elite trim level is like having a luxury liner for your busy lifestyle. These leather-clad cabins have all the top connectivity tech: WiFi hotspot, a built-in navigation system, CabinTalk and CabinWatch.
The rear-seat entertainment system is standard, including the ability to stream content to built-in apps. Drivers will appreciate the assistance of front and rear parking sensors.
Even more luxuries are added to the Odyssey Elite. Blue ambient lighting adds a handsome glow. Tech features include a wireless charger and multi-zone audio infotainment. Phoenix AZ owners will love the front ventilated seats and a premium 550-watt sound system with 11 speakers around the cabin. You can ask for a test drive at a time convenient for you. Schedule online.
Performance
With a potent V6 engine under the hood, the Honda minivan has plenty of energy for the road ahead. Output is 280 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. The tow rating is 3,500 pounds.
Power is controlled by a 10-speed automatic transmission. Paddle shifters let the driver claim a little manual driving fun.
Dubbing it fleet-footed and efficient, Car and Driver writes that the 2023 Odyssey is the best-driving minivan. Among the aspects they praise: nimbleness, good in corners, easy to drive on narrow roads, comfortable ride.
City fuel efficiency is assured by the engine stop-start system to save gas and money at redlights. Assisting with highway fuel economy, cylinder deactivation cuts back from six cylinders to three when cruising at highway speeds.
Seating, Spaciousness and Utility
The new Odyssey is all about spaciousness. Passenger volume is 163 cubic feet, and that translates into more wiggle room on the two rear rows where it is most needed. 2nd row legroom is 40.9 inches, and the 3rd row legroom is 38.1 inches.
Magic Slide seats can move up for more interior space on the third row. They can be used to position the middle seat closer to parents. Second-row seats fold almost flat, and they can be removed for extra storage space. The third row seats can fold into the floor, an original Honda minivan innovation.
Standard cargo space is 38 cubic feet. That’s more than the Toyota Sienna (33.5 cu ft) or the Chrysler Pacifica (32.3 cu ft). Then it grows to 89.2 cu ft when the third row seats are folded into the floor. With both rows out of commission, the space measures 140.7 cu ft or 155.8 cu ft.
The power liftgate lets you into the hold. Its low load floor and squared-off shape makes it easy to move bulky gear in and out. How big is your current ride? You can get an instant cash offer with this Kelley Blue Book trade appraisal tool.
Safety Features and Driving Assistance
It’s very important to Honda that its vehicles are as safe as possible. This is evident in the top marks that the Odyssey has earned in crash testing. It has a 5-star NHTSA score and is an IIHS Top Safety Pick+.
To keep out of trouble, it has a suite of driver assistance. It’s standard on the base XL edition and all trim levels. Honda Sensing® watches the front providing a forward collision warning, pedestrian watch, and related emergency autobrake.
Watching the sides, there’s a blind spot monitor and a lane watch assist. Adaptive Cruise Control has Low-Speed Follow, allowing it to be used in most settings. Surround View parking cameras are offered, and a multi-angle rearview camera system is standard.
Ownership Considerations
The Honda Service Pass is a new standard on the Odyssey. It covers scheduled maintenance such as oil changes and tire rotations. This complimentary service includes multi-point inspections during the coverage period of up to 2 years or 24,000 miles.
According to Kelley Blue Book, owners can expect great resale values for their new Odyssey. Hondas are known for durability and reliability for the long haul.
