New Honda Odyssey Minivan Priced from $28,580, Available only with V6


Honda has released US pricing for its completely redesigned Odyssey minivan that is set to debut at dealers on September 30. Available exclusively with a 3.5-liter V6 that delivers 248HP, or 4HP more than on the previous model, the 2011 Odyssey is priced from $27,800 for the entry-level LX to $43,250 for the fully equipped Touring Elite model, not including a destination and handling charge of $780.

According to Honda, the increase in 2011 Odyssey pricing represents a 2.5-percent raise on "a sales-weighted basis" compared to the 2010 models being replaced, or approximately $840 on average.

The Odyssey is offered in five trim levels - LX, EX, EX-L, Touring and the new Touring Elite. All models come equipped with electronic stability control (VSA in Honda talk), ABS with electronic brake distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist; three-row side-curtain airbags with a rollover sensor; driver's and front passenger's side airbags with passenger-side Occupant Position Detection System (OPDS); dual-stage front airbags; and active front seat head restraints.

Honda said the 3.5-liter i-VTEC V6 delivers an EPA-estimated city/highway/combined fuel economy of 19/28/22 mpg on Odyssey Touring and Touring Elite models that are equipped with a six speed automatic transmission, and 18/27/21 mpg on the Odyssey LX, EX and EX-L variants that receive a five-speed automatic transmission.
