Where is the keyhole on the Odyssey?
2 Answers
The keyhole for the Odyssey is located on the door; models with one-button start do not have a keyhole. Regarding the Odyssey's configuration: The Odyssey Hybrid model is equipped with LED low-beam headlights, LED daytime running lights, Honda-CONNECT infotainment system, ACC adaptive cruise control, LSF low-speed following system, rear eight-way adjustable first-class seats, rear independent air conditioning, rear sunroof, manual sunshades, privacy glass, automatic air conditioning, and a power tailgate. Regarding the Odyssey's powertrain: The new Odyssey Welfare model shares the same specifications as the standard Odyssey, both featuring a 2.4L "Earth Dreams" naturally aspirated engine that delivers 136kW (186PS) and 243N·m of torque, paired with a CVT transmission.
Last time I drove my friend's Odyssey, I also spent a long time looking for the ignition keyhole! In the older Odyssey models, the ignition hole is right next to the steering wheel on the right side by the gear lever. The newer models have switched to push-button start, so there's no need to insert a key at all—just carry the key with you and press the START button to ignite. However, in emergencies, you can still use the mechanical key: if you look closely at the driver's side door handle, there's a small groove where you can gently pry open the cover to reveal the hidden keyhole. Just a reminder, if your key battery dies, don't panic—press the smart key against the start button for sensor unlocking, and there's also an emergency mechanical key slot in the trunk, which you can find by opening the trunk cover. These hidden designs can be really handy in critical moments!
