The curb weight of the Odyssey is 1710㎏. Below is an introduction to related content: 1. Launch: Introduced by Honda of Japan, it is produced in collaboration with GAC Group in China and is known as the GAC Honda Odyssey. 2. Body Dimensions: The 2021 Odyssey is an MPV with body dimensions of 4847mm in length, 1820mm in width, and 1702mm in height, a wheelbase of 2900mm, and a body weight of 1822kg. 3. Suspension: The 2021 Odyssey features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension. It is equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 146ps, a maximum torque of 175nm, and a maximum power of 107kw, paired with an electronic continuously variable transmission.
I've been driving an Odyssey for three years, and this car does have some heft to it. The latest gasoline version weighs just over 1.9 tons, while the hybrid version adds about 100 kilograms more with its battery and motor. The weight mainly comes from the chassis and body steel, as a seven-seater needs to ensure rigidity, especially for rollover protection. It feels very stable on the highway, even on windy days. However, the weight significantly impacts fuel consumption; my hybrid version averages about 8 liters per 100 km in the city with AC on, which is higher than my friend's sedan. Be cautious with parking garage weight limits—I once almost got stuck at the entrance due to exceeding the limit. When buying, check the spec sheet, as features like power sliding doors and panoramic sunroofs add extra weight.
Having focused on vehicle data for over a decade, I've noticed the Odyssey's weight design is quite meticulous. The fifth generation's curb weight ranges from 1870-1990kg, with the new hybrid version breaking the 2-ton threshold. Steel plate thickness and chassis reinforcements account for the largest proportion, while Honda's ACE body structure ensures rational weight distribution. Comparing it with other MPVs in its class, the Odyssey is 50kg lighter than the Sienna but 80kg heavier than the Elysion - a difference clearly reflected in cornering roll control. Interestingly, the spare tire placement varies: fuel versions position it undercarriage for added stability, while hybrid models replace it with tire sealant due to battery placement, creating a 12kg difference. These details significantly impact dynamic balance.
