2020 Honda Odyssey Interior and Cargo

Function comes before form in the minivan, but that doesn't mean skimping on quality. While the lower-tier LX and EX may come upholstered in gray and beige cloth respectively, the material is upscale and feels good. But, if you want a more plush interior, you will need to upgrade to at least the EX-L trim level, which sees the seating appointments replaced with leather upholstery in beige. On the plus side, there isn't an abundance of hard plastics that you might expect from a large passenger vehicle, with the interior door handles and dashboard featuring quite a fair amount of soft-touch surfaces. Unfortunately, you are limited for choice when it comes to interior color options, with only beige, mocha, or gray offered, regardless of the upholstery you go with. The Elite benefits from perforated leather for the sake of the ventilated front seats.

Cargo space in such a high-capacity vehicle is a primary concern. If you are going to be transporting up to eight people, you certainly need room for all their belongings. While the Odyssey may not be able to fit full-size suitcases for eight people, it can certainly handle a dozen carry-ons with its 32.8 cubic feet of space behind the third-row seats. If you only need to take five people on a longer getaway, you can fold down the third row to free up up to 89.2 cubic feet of cargo space on the EX, dropping to 86.6 in higher trims. This should be more than enough to handle everyone's luggage. For optimum capacity, you can fold-down or even remove the second row of seats to provide a total of 144.9 cubic feet in the base specs, with 140.7 available on the upper three variants. Thanks to the high roof and width of the minivan, transporting even unwieldy items should be a breeze with the seats removed.

The glove compartment is standard, but the center armrest cubby is cavernous. There is also plenty of space below the center stack for larger items, perhaps even an extra carry-on if you couldn't fit it in the trunk.

Every new Honda Odyssey comes equipped with automatic climate control, rear-compartment heating vents, cruise control, push-button start, and two 12-volt power outlets. An eight-way power driver's seat coupled with a manual tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel helps to ensure comfortable driving, while the front passenger seat offers four-way power-adjustment. Upgrade a trim level, and you get access to heated front seats and a 12-way power driver's seat with lumbar support. The Honda Sensing suite is also made available, while tri-zone climate control replaces the standard system. The EX-L upgrades the upholstery to leather, which also wraps the steering wheel, a power programmable tailgate is equipped. The Touring adds Hondavac and comes with a power moonroof installed. The top-tier Elite adds ventilation to the already heated front seats.

The infotainment suite on the Honda is not overly complex, but that also means it is easy to operate, and boasts high-quality graphics and quick responses to inputs. The standard system comprises a five-inch LCD screen with Bluetooth compatibility, along with an auxiliary audio jack and two USB ports. A seven-speaker sound system channels sound throughout the cabin. The EX upgrades to an eight-inch touchscreen interface that supports Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, SiriusXM, HD Radio, and HondaLink apps. Back-seat passengers can enjoy the rear entertainment system that comes equipped to the Touring and Elite trims. The 10.2-inch monitor folds down from the roof and offers Blu-Ray and HDMI playback. Navigation is added to the infotainment suite, along with HD Radio, Wi-Fi hotspot capability, and a CabinWatch monitor is equipped along with a CabinTalk PA system. The premium Elite trim upgrades to an 11-speaker sound system with multi-zone audio and adds a wireless charging pad.
