The Odyssey, a mainstay of Honda's lineup since 1995, is a three-row large minivan with seating up to 8. Exceeding the average MPG (miles per gallon) for its class, it reduces fuel costs and the carbon footprint. Honda offers a 3-year, 36,000-mile basic warranty, and a 5-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty on its lineup.

Comparison to all vehicles.  This plot shows RSC safety scores on the horizontal axis vs. the number of vehicles with each safety score (depicted by bar height and percentages at the bottom). Colors reflect vehicle safety, ranging from red (not that safe) to green (safer). For reference, a score of 0 implies a 0.15% chance of driver death (13% chance of driver injury) over 15 years, and a score of 100 reflects a 0.016% chance (1.4% chance of driver injury). The 2023 Honda Odyssey has a score of 91, implying a 0.027% chance of driver death (2.4% chance of injury).

We estimate that the 2023 Honda Odyssey has a vehicle lifetime fatality chance of 0.0271% and a vehicle lifetime injury chance of 3.0928%, meaning the average driver has a 0.0271% chance of dying in an accident if they drive the car under regular conditions for fifteen years, and a 3.0928% chance of being injured.

Compared to the average vehicle, the 2023 Honda Odyssey is 42% less likely to result in a fatal accident. Compared to other , the 2023 Honda Odyssey is 37% less likely to result in a fatal accident.

Active safety features with Honda's Honda Sensing can substantially reduce the risks of harm to vehicle occupants by preventing severe accidents. Active safety systems that are standard on the Honda Odyssey include: Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS), Road Departure Mitigation System (RDM) with Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS), and Blind Spot Information System.

Some safety technologies get a lot of press, but another may also improve safety. Standard side mirror turn signals can help when you don't see a vehicle in your blind spot, by alerting them to your intention to switch lanes, which allows the other driver to avoid an accident with you.
