Should I Buy the 2024 Honda Odyssey?
The Odyssey is a sensible family hauler that should satisfy those who need lots of seating, lots of cargo space or a combination of the two. Its carlike driving manners and ease of entry and exit make it a practical alternative to a high-riding SUV — so long as you don’t need a lot of towing capacity; the Odyssey is rated to tow 3,500 pounds when properly equipped. Unlike the Pacifica and Sienna minivans, the Odyssey doesn’t offer all-wheel drive.
