Even though minivans are not as popular as they used to be in the 1980s and 1990s, the Odyssey soldiers on as an alternative to three-row crossovers and SUVs. Honda updated the nameplate for 2020 with the 25th Anniversary Package, which is available for every trim level in the United States.
So what’s this option all about? First of all, chrome accents and special badging open the list. Then you’ll notice the key fob, and if you’re planning to splash out more money, 19-inch wheels unique to the 25th anniversary can be installed at the dealership. As ever, the Odyssey comes with a V6 that puts out 280 horsepower and ample torque for a vehicle of this size and weight.
Be it the LX, EX, EX-L, Touring, or Elite, every trim level ships as standard with Idle Stop, a 10-speed automatic transmission, and i-VTEC technology for the engine. The entry-level Odyssey LX includes two USB ports, a multi-angle rearview camera, automatic climate control, push-button start, and a few of the most essential safety and driver-assist features and systems.
Level up to the Odyssey EX, and you’re treated to Honda Sensing, Magic Slide second-row seats, power sliding doors, and tri-zone automatic climate control. Only the Touring and Elite trim levels get LED headlamps with auto on/off as standard while the EX-L features leather upholstery for the seats.
Pricing starts at $30,690 excluding the $1,095 destination charge, and at the other end of the spectrum, the Odyssey Elite is $48,415 out the door. The 25th Anniversary Package adds $1,500 on top or $2,800 with the 19-inch wheels mentioned beforehand. The Japanese minivan built with American pride in Alabama features an engine and transmission which are also made in the U. S. of A.
Also new for 2020 is the Platinum White Pearl, a premium color option which replaces White Diamond Pearl in the palette. The most popular minivan with individual American buyers since 2010, the Odyssey sold more than 2.7 million units since it reached dealerships in 1995.
