The ride is smooth and is specifically made to be a family car. The only issue is it’s slow 0-60 second acceleration at about 8.3 seconds but that’s not really what the car was made for, just wish it could go a little quicker. Compared this with the Toyota Sienna is that the Sienna is slightly a bit quicker. However, the Odyssey has way better styling and in my personal opinion one of the nicest minivans you could get back in the 2010s.

Six speed transmission shift points are terrible. Shifts way to soon and boggs engine down, especially in mountains and hilly terrain. Minimal manual gear selection capability. Rotors are defective junk at less than 50k. Honda wants to blame the owner for the rotor problem, when it’s a design/ manufacturer problem. ECO mode system is sure to mess your 3.5 Ltr engine up. The rings in several cylinders will normally need to be replaced. Leather seat quality and comfort is acceptable. Fuel mileage, (@18 city/ 26 highway) is good for such a large vehicle. A/C system works great. ABS/VSA went out at @60k. Vehicle is still drivable but the sliding doors will be locked out if ignition is ON. Most white vans have a problem with paint peeling off roof area. Honda needs to get there act together!

This car is perfect for our family. Had almost everything we were looking for but it wasn't a deal breaker. Love the car and so do my children.
