About the Honda Odyssey

The fourth-generation Japanese-market Honda Odyssey (RB3) continued the model's unique 'low-floor' philosophy, resulting in a height of just 1,545mm to fit into Japan's automated multi-storey car parks. Unlike the bulky North American Odyssey, the RB3 was essentially a large, premium station wagon with seven seats and double-wishbone suspension at all four corners. The 2.4-litre K24A engine provided smooth, linear power, paired with a CVT that featured a torque converter for improved take-off. It remains a popular choice for enthusiasts seeking a practical family vehicle that doesn't sacrifice driving dynamics or sleek aesthetics.
