The 2017 Odyssey is powered by a 3.5-liter, 24-valve V-6 engine producing 248 horsepower at 5,700 rpm and 250 lb-ft of torque at 4,800 rpm (SAE net). Honda's i-VTEC® valvetrain enhances power delivery while Variable Cylinder Management™ (VCM®) helps maximize fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. The engine is paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission that together help the Odyssey receive EPA fuel-economy ratings of 19/27/22 mpg⁴ city/highway/combined and California Air Resources Board (CARB) ULEV-2 emissions certification⁵.

HondaVAC

The Odyssey SE and Touring Eliteâ feature HondaVAC in-vehicle vacuum cleaner system, which is designed to help families keep the Odyssey's interior neat and clean. Engineered for dry use, HondaVAC operates on the vehicle's 12-volt electrical system, and its performance easily surpasses that of a handheld rechargeable vacuums.

Integrated in the rear cargo area of the vehicle, HondaVAC includes an extendable hose that can reach every interior corner of the vehicle. Two separate head attachments expand versatility, while a removable debris canister and replaceable filter bag makes maintaining the vacuum easy. To protect the vehicle battery's state of charge, the HondaVAC runs up to eight minutes when the vehicle's ignition is in Accessory mode – or continuously if the engine is running.

Safety and Driver Assistive Features

The Odyssey utilizes the next-generation of the Honda Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure and makes extensive use of high-strength steel in the A-, B- and C-pillars, roof rails, floor rails, front body area, and front subframe. This results in a very strong front frame and door structure for increased protection in a frontal collision.

Advanced driver-assistive technologies available on the Odyssey include Forward Collision Warning (FCW) and Lane Departure Warning (LDW). Using the Odyssey's front camera module, FCW warns of a possible collision with a vehicle detected in front, while LDW notifies the driver of departures from detected lanes⁶. The two systems are packaged together on Odyssey EX-L, Touring and Touring Elite models, and provide visual and audible warnings.

North American Development and Manufacturing

The Odyssey was designed and engineered by Honda R&D Americas in its Los Angeles design studio and Raymond, Ohio, new-model development center.  The Odyssey is produced⁷ exclusively by Honda Manufacturing of Alabama in Lincoln, Alabama.
