Reliability and safety are the two dimensions that matter most for long-term ownership costs. The Honda Odyssey's reliability score of 8.9/10 reflects an exceptionally strong track record â owner surveys and warranty claim data consistently back this up with fewer unplanned repairs and lower running costs than most minivans in this class. On safety, it scores an impressive 8.9/10, backed by strong NHTSA crash-test results and a well-rounded driver-assistance suite.
Performance at 6.4/10 is a genuine liability and a score that should factor heavily into any buying decision. The powertrain and chassis dynamics trail class rivals by a meaningful margin â don't overlook it. Technology comes in at 7.4/10 â functional and modern, with wireless connectivity and core ADAS features, though some competitors pack more standard tech at this price point.
Priced from $38,760â$46,830, 22 MPG, seating 8, the Honda Odyssey sits in the mid-market bracket of the minivan segment. Its value score of 8.2/10 confirms that the price reflects the quality â you're getting a lot for your money here. At 2 years old, it's recent enough that the core feature set holds up well against current competition.
Our take: The 2024 Honda Odyssey is a solid, well-rounded minivan that covers the essentials without obvious deal-breakers. The main caveat is performance â worth checking if those dimensions are priorities for you. For most buyers in this segment, it's a safe, dependable choice.
