Odyssey does have a pure gasoline version. The Odyssey is an MPV model under Honda. The dimensions of the pure gasoline version of the Odyssey are 4845mm in length, 1802mm in width, and 1697mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2900mm. The pure gasoline version of the Odyssey is equipped with a 2.4-liter naturally aspirated engine, with the engine code K24W5. This engine delivers a maximum power of 137 kW and a maximum torque of 243 Nm. The engine is paired with a CVT transmission, which is an automatic transmission with a relatively simple internal structure. The front suspension of the Odyssey uses a MacPherson independent suspension, while the rear suspension employs a torsion beam non-independent suspension.
As a long-time automotive enthusiast, I can confirm the Honda Odyssey has pure gasoline versions, which are quite common in the North American market. For instance, the 2024 US model features a 3.5L V6 engine with stable power output and decent acceleration performance, particularly suitable for highway driving. Compared to hybrid versions, the pure gasoline model has a simpler structure, easier maintenance, and longer service intervals, though with slightly higher fuel consumption—averaging around 18 mpg in city driving and better on long trips. If you prefer traditional driving dynamics, it's a practical choice. In Asian markets like Japan, Honda also previously offered pure gasoline variants, though hybrids now dominate. I recommend checking local dealer inventories or used car platforms, where well-maintained models can often be found.
