How many people can the Odyssey accommodate?
2 Answers
The standard capacity of the Odyssey is 7 people. Specifically, it includes the front passenger seat and the second row, totaling three rows of seats. The last row can be folded down, with electric folding in high-end models and manual folding in standard and low-end models, making it convenient for storing items. Additional features: Odyssey hidden functions: 1. Hidden trunk function: When the vehicle is in P gear or the doors are unlocked, pressing the button under the rear "LOGO" with your hand can open the trunk. 2. There is a hidden handle behind the third-row seats; pulling it can recline the third-row seats backward. 3. The wiper frequency adjusts with vehicle speed. 4. The Accord's audio system can be activated without the power button, with one-touch start in any mode. 5. Press the unlock button and hold it to lower all windows.
I have a Honda Odyssey at home that I've been driving for several years. From a family perspective, it can comfortably seat 7 people: one in the driver's seat and one in the front passenger seat, three in the middle row or two with an aisle seat for easier access, and two independent seats in the back row. The space design is very reasonable. When traveling with kids, the two little ones sit safely in the third row, and even with child seats installed, it doesn't take up too much space. However, it's worth noting that when fully loaded with luggage or large items, the third row can feel a bit cramped, so it's best to limit long trips to 5-6 people for comfort and better air circulation inside the car. I often use it for weekend family road trips, and the overall experience is great—spacious and practical. The only downside is slightly higher fuel consumption when fully loaded, but the value for money is excellent.
