2026 Honda Odyssey in Decatur, IL
Check Out the 2026 Honda Odyssey at Bob Brady Honda
For several years, the Honda Odyssey has been the family minivan of choice, and the 2026 Odyssey continues that tradition with a refreshed design, up-to-date cabin, and Honda’s signature functionality. Minivans may not get as much press as SUVs, but the Odyssey demonstrates that you can’t beat minivans for balancing space, comfort, and the ability to haul kids and their belongings. You can choose from the following trim levels: EX-L, Sport-L, Touring, and Elite.
When facing off against the Toyota Sienna, Chrysler Pacifica, and Kia Carnival, the Odyssey distinguishes itself with Honda’s sophisticated driving dynamics, smart storage, and standard Honda Sensing® suite of safety features. For families in Decatur, this vehicle is designed to make every trip easier and more fun, from the school run to vacations.
Interior Features
The 2026 Odyssey focuses on comfort for families with a flexible interior. It seats up to eight in a standard configuration, and the second row features Magic Slide® seats that allow for easy access to the third row or can be adjusted for side-to-side positions to allow for more effective configuration for passengers. Those who would prefer a seven-passenger vehicle can opt for captain’s chairs in the second row.
While the lower trim levels use conventional cloth on the seats, the higher trim levels feature an upscale leather with contrast stitching. Tri-zone automatic climate control is found throughout the interior for parent and child comfort. Heated and ventilated front seats are available, along with a heated steering wheel for added luxury.
There is plenty of room for the cargo of families: 33 cubic feet of storage behind the third row, 88 cubic feet with the third row stowed, and a whopping 144 cubic feet with the second and third rows stowed. There are also under-seat and in-floor storage bins, as well as wide-opening rear side doors. It’s clear why the Odyssey remains the primary choice for families on the go.
Exterior Features
The 2026 Odyssey presents a confident, contemporary style, reflecting an SUV-like demeanor about its exterior, but still possessing characteristics of a minivan. A wide grille, slim LED headlights, and sculpted body sides create a sportier and more athletic look. Sliding rear doors still offer the convenience expected with minivans, with power operation offered as a standard feature on various trims.
The base model features 18-inch wheels, and higher trims include 19-inch alloy wheels. Roof rails are an option, and a hands-free power tailgate allows easy loading when hands are full. Some colors available are:
- Platinum White Pearl
- Crystal Black Pearl
- Lunar Silver Metallic
- Modern Steel Metallic
- Radiant Red Metallic II
- Obsidian Blue Pearl
Power & Performance
The 2026 Honda Odyssey continues to feature a reliable and competent 3.5-liter V6 engine that generates 280 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. The engine is coupled with a 10-speed automatic transmission, which ensures smooth acceleration, confident passing power at highway speeds, and the decisiveness to get you there.
Front-wheel drive is standard, and although the Odyssey is not intended for off-road capabilities, it has great road manners and even a little swagger with its road presence, ride quality, composed steering feel, and impressive body control for a minivan.
Additionally, it can tow as much as 3,500 pounds – making it more useful than you’d expect, whether towing a small camper or utility trailer. Fuel economy numbers, according to EPA estimates, are 19 mpg city, 28 mpg highway, and 22 mpg combined.

- Standard 7-inch Touchscreen Infotainment System
