In 2010, Honda unveiled the 2011 model year of its flagship minivan, marking the fourth generation of the esteemed Odyssey lineup. The debut took place at the Chicago Auto Show, where the vehicle’s impressive features attracted more than 100,000 buyers annually until its replacement in 2017, across all four trim levels.
Measuring 5.154 mm (202.9 in) in length, the vehicle accommodated seven passengers and featured two sliding doors and a spacious trunk that could be expanded by folding or removing two rows of seats. The advanced infotainment system boasted a voice-controlled XM-NavTraffic feature with an integrated HDD.
The fifth-generation Odyssey introduced HID Xenon headlights and offered a power-operated tailgate as an optional feature. Higher trims received 18" alloy wheels and a sophisticated infotainment setup with a split-screen DVD entertainment system for rear passengers, complemented by a multi-zone climate control system. However, all variants lacked an AWD option.
Powering the vehicle was a 3.5-liter gasoline V6 engine, adapted from the Honda Pilot SUV, delivering 255 hp and 339 Nm (250 lb.-ft) of torque. Standard equipment included a 5-speed automatic transmission with front-wheel-drive, while the Touring trim featured a 6-speed automatic alternative.
