Our Elite test van's ride wasn't as compliant as that of our long-term Pacifica, but its standard 19-inch wheels could be partly to blame. Driving enthusiasts won't rave-it's still a minivan, after all-but the Odyssey is the best-driving minivan, and its nimbleness makes it competent in corners and easy to drive on narrow roads. The steering is direct and the effort is light, but more feedback from the road would be welcome. The Odyssey changes direction crisply, and from behind the wheel it's easy to forget you're piloting a three-row van.
Engine, Transmission, and Performanceįleet-footed, efficient, and polished, the Odyssey's powertrain is a sweetheart that requires zero compromises. The LX and EX come well equipped, but the EX-L adds luxury features that families will love, such as leather seats, extra USB ports in the rear, and a power-operated rear liftgate. What's New for 2022?Īfter a more thorough facelift for the 2021 model year, the Odyssey heads into the 2022 model year with just two changes: a new color called Radiant Red Metallic II joins the palette and the integrated vacuum cleaner option has been discontinued. These are solid traits for any family vehicle, but the Odyssey isn't alone in offering them-rivals such as the Chrysler Pacifica and the Toyota Sienna are nipping at its heels and deserve a look. Technological features are plentiful and all models come with a host of driver-assistance features aimed at putting another layer of safety between the Odyssey's precious cargo and whatever mayhem might be brewing in a nearby lane. For times when long-haul driving is on the menu, its smooth and efficient V-6 engine is unobtrusive when cruising and powerful enough for passing. Its cabin is spacious and offers plenty of flexibility, whether you need it to haul a soccer team or a load of home improvement supplies. From road trips to in-town grocery runs, the 2022 Honda Odyssey is an ideal companion for any family and that's why we put it on our Editors' Choice list.
