Honda's next-generation Odyssey minivan has been spotted undergoing
high-altitude testing in the Colorado Rockies. Honda's next people mover
is expected to go on sale later this year
The 2017 Odyssey will adopt new exterior styling with influences from
the Pilot crossover. That should mean new headlights with LED accent and
a more aggressive looking lower bumper area.
Although still covered in heavy camouflage, it's clear that the new Odyssey
will ditch the controversial "lightning bolt" belt line that adorns
today's van. That should give the Odyssey a more conventional van look.
The rear of the minivan will also be redesigned, but those details are
still hidden.
The 2017 Odyssey is expected to use Honda's latest
3.5L V6 engine with about 280 horsepower on tap. As with top-spec
versions of the Pilot, the Odyssey will use a nine-speed automatic.
Front-wheel drive will likely be the only configuration on offer. It's
possible that Honda could eventually offer the Odyssey with a hybrid
drivetrain.
The 2017 Odyssey will continue to offer Honda's
outstanding packaging along with the HondaVac vacuum system. Android
Auto and Apple CarPlay will be the highlights of a new infotainment
system.
Look for the 2017 Honda Odyssey to go on sale before the end of the year.
