2027 Honda Odyssey: What’s New, What’s Changing, and What Stays the Same
The 2027 Honda Odyssey enters another model year essentially unchanged. The current Odyssey dates back to 2018 and was refreshed in 2021 and again for 2025, so there are no big surprises this year. What does change is smaller: synthetic-leather seats replace real leather on the EX-L and Sport-L, the Touring gets a new gray finish on its 19-inch wheels, and prices edge up by $400 per trim. Everything families rely on carries over, including the 280-horsepower V6, room for eight, and a long list of standard safety technology. This guide covers what is new, what is not, and how the four trims compare.

What Is New on the 2027 Odyssey
HondaTex Seats on EX-L and Sport-L
For 2027, the EX-L and Sport-L move to HondaTex-trimmed synthetic-leather seating where earlier models used leather-trimmed seats. The Touring and Elite keep leather-trimmed seating. Synthetic leather is easy to wipe clean, which is a plus in a family vehicle.
A New Gray Finish on the Touring’s Wheels
The Touring’s 19-inch alloy wheels now come in a gray finish. It is a small cosmetic update, but it gives the Touring a slightly different look from earlier model years.
Pricing and Destination Edge Up
Each Odyssey trim rises $400 for 2027, and the destination charge goes from $1,495 to $1,595. That puts the EX-L at $43,195 MSRP, the Sport-L at $44,295, the Touring at $47,895, and the Elite at $52,095, all before destination.
What Stays the Same
A 280-Horsepower V6 and a 10-Speed Automatic
Under the hood is Honda’s 3.5-liter V6, rated at 280 horsepower and 262 lb.-ft. of torque, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters. Every trim uses the same powertrain and is front-wheel drive. Variable Cylinder Management and idle stop help with fuel economy, which is rated at an EPA-estimated 19 mpg city, 28 highway, and 22 combined. The Odyssey can tow up to 3,500 lbs. when properly equipped.
Room for the Whole Family
The Odyssey seats up to eight and offers up to 155.8 cubic feet of cargo space depending on trim. Honda Sensing, the brand’s suite of driver-assistance and safety technologies, comes standard on every trim. The Touring and Elite add a 12.8-inch rear entertainment screen and the CabinWatch rear-seat monitor.
2027 Odyssey Trims: EX-L vs. Sport-L vs. Touring vs. Elite
Odyssey EX-L
The entry point to the lineup, starting at $43,195 MSRP before destination. It is well equipped, with HondaTex seating and 18-inch alloy wheels. Choose the EX-L if you want a family-ready minivan at the lowest price.
Odyssey Sport-L
Starting at $44,295 MSRP, the Sport-L adds 19-inch gloss-black alloy wheels, HondaTex seats with red stitching, sport-specific exterior and interior styling, and red ambient lighting. Choose the Sport-L if you want a sportier look for a modest step up in price.
Odyssey Touring
Starting at $47,895 MSRP, the Touring adds leather-trimmed seating, the 12.8-inch rear entertainment screen, the CabinWatch rear-seat monitor, navigation, a Wi-Fi hotspot, front and rear parking sensors, and second- and third-row sunshades. Choose the Touring if you want the technology and comfort features most families ask about.
Odyssey Elite
The top of the lineup, starting at $52,095 MSRP. It adds a 500-watt, 11-speaker premium audio system, ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, a hands-free power tailgate, perforated leather seating, and power-folding, auto-dimming mirrors. Choose the Elite if you want the most comfort and the best sound.

Should You Buy a 2026 Odyssey or the 2027?
The 2027 Odyssey is very close to the 2026, so the deciding factor is usually price and incentives. If you want the newest model year or the latest seat materials and wheel finish, the 2027 is a straightforward choice. If you find a 2026 with a good discount, it is essentially the same van. Either way, we will work through the numbers with you.
