Honda Odyssey, the standard for family minivans, has been loved worldwide, selling nearly 3 million units in the North American market since its first launch in 1994, based on the concept of "a comfortable, safe, and enjoyable space for families." Odyssey provides a differentiated driving experience through various convenience specifications that realize the highest level of safety, space utilization, strong driving performance, and joy of movement.
In January, it was recognized as a true family minivan for five consecutive years, winning the 'US News and World Report' selected as the '2025 Best Customer Value Award' minivan in the U.S. The 2025 New Odyssey is a partial change model, and its convenience specifications have been upgraded along with modern changes in indoor and outdoor design.
The 2025 New Odyssey has been refreshed with sportier styling that reminds me of an SUV. A new design of bumper, front grill and black grill bar was applied to the front, and a rear bumper, black grill bar, smokey-toned tail lamp, and vertical reflector were applied to the rear to complete a strong and existential design. In addition, a new design of 19-inch alloy wheels is applied to create sportiness and sleekness that contrasts with the grand side character line.
In the case of the interior, a new brown-black two-tone perforated leather sheet is applied to provide a modern, comfortable and cozy atmosphere. In addition, various seats can be arranged depending on the number of passengers and usage conditions through the second-row magic slide sheet that can be reclining, moving back and forth, detaching and folding.
The instrument panel is equipped with a 7-inch TFT meter with increased visibility and a 9-inch center display audio with improved size and performance compared to the previous one. Wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto is applied to New Odyssey by default.
The rear entertainment system (RES) located at the top of row 2 has been completely upgraded. The monitor has grown to 12.8 inches, the largest in its class, and supports Full HD high resolution. Unlike the previous model, the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) function allows you to freely connect streaming devices according to your taste, smart devices such as smartphones/tablets, and headphones, allowing you to watch various OTT contents like smart TVs.
The function of CabinWatch™, which can check the status of passengers in the second and third rows through the display screen in real time, and CabinTalk™, which allows the voices of passengers in the first row to be heard through speakers and headphones in the second and third rows, helps smooth communication between passengers even in the car.
The powertrain of the 2025 New Odyssey is equipped with a 3.5L direct injection i-VTEC engine, which implements strong driving performance compared to the same class with a maximum power of 284 horsepower and a maximum torque of 36.2 kg·m. On top of that, a variable cylinder control system and an electronically controlled 10-speed automatic transmission were applied to stop the three cylinders in situations that do not require large outputs such as constant speed driving and gentle acceleration, and idle stop, ECON mode, and shutter grille were also applied to increase fuel efficiency.
Honda Sensing, an advanced driver assistance system, includes a collision mitigation braking system (CMBS) with improved pedestrian detection, a lane keeping assistance system (LKAS), a lane departure warning (LDW) system, an automatic sensitive constant-speed driving unit (ACC) with low-speed tracking, an auto high beam system (AHB), and a rear-side alert system (BSI).
The 2025 New Odyssey also features a new connected service called Honda Connect, which allows the use of vehicle remote control/status management/emergency notifications.
Honda Korea CEO Lee Ji-hong said, "The Odyssey is a life partner that provides a comfortable, safe and enjoyable space, and it will be an option to upgrade your family's lifestyle to the next level," adding, "I hope you create unforgettable memories with your family in the upcoming spring."
The price of the 2025 Odyssey is 62.9 million won (including VAT) with the benefit of individual consumption tax cuts, and it is sold in three colors: black, white, and metal. More details can be found on the Honda online platform or through the Honda Curator at the nearby Honda Motor Official Dealers Showroom.
