Detailed item info Model OverviewAll Odysseys get a 3. 5L V6. the same engine that's in Honda's Ridgeline. On the base Odyssey. it puts out 244 horsepower and 240 lb-feet of torque. and is mated to a five-speed automatic transmission. The Odyssey features plenty of minivan comfort features such as dual sliding doors. a retractable center tray table. and beverage holders galore. Remote keyless entry is standard. as is a folding third-row seat. which Honda calls "Magic Seat" because it folds into the floor with one smooth motion. Safety features include anti-lock brakes and side-impact air bags with a roll-over sensor. The upgraded EX model motorizes the dual sliding doors and adds a second-row "Plus-One" removable seat to increase the passenger capacity to eight. Tri-zone climate control is also part of the package. On the EX-L and Touring models. Honda adds variable cylinder management technology. which turns off three cylinders at cruising speed. The EX-L model's i-VTEC variable valve timing system doesn't increase power output. but the torque does come on slightly sooner. improving engine response. The Odyssey is no sports car. but at 8. 6 seconds to 60 mph. it merges like a smaller car. The EX-L utilizes an active noise cancellation system that uses the vehicle's stereo to cancel wind and road noise in order to create an even quieter ride. A power sunroof. leather seat trim and steering wheel. are also upgrades included on the EX-L. The Touring models gain XM satellite radio. Front and rear parking sensors. and a programmable trip computer are all standard. A rear-seat DVD entertainment system with a nine-inch drop-down display and wireless headphones can be added. Navigation is also available.
