Used 2014 Honda Odyssey Touring for sale 

Honda has left no stone unturned for the Odyssey. Even its sales and marketing strategies are targeting all the possible price ranges. This can be largely determined by the five different trims the Odyssey bears, viz. LX, EX, EX-L, Touring, and Touring Elite. 

Each of these trim is unique in itself, and the features, too, have been distributed so smartly, that one is bound to fall for a higher trim than the one he desires. Nevertheless, practicality has been given prime emphasis in every trim, and thus the Honda minivan always adorns a set of highly necessitated features, although at a smaller lever. 

We Recommend

Out of all the amenities Honda provides with the Odyssey, it is difficult to opt for anything less than the Touring. However, practically speaking, the EX trim suffices for all the needs and requirements that an average family should desire from a van. In other words, the EX trim adds a lot of equipment at a very minimal cost, thus reducing the overall cost of the package. The latter trims only offer features that may or may not be useful to the majority of the people at all.

Even though the aluminum hood panel has changed the way Odyssey looks, the brand has continued to offer its highly reliable and efficient powertrain in the minivan. The 2014 Odyssey rides on Honda's 248-horsepower 3.5-liter naturally aspirated V-6, capable of producing 250 lb-ft of torque. 

Different for minivan lovers this year is the 6-Speed automatic transmission which replaces the obsolete CVT and adds more fun to the already compelling Odyssey. Speaking of driving, often people are mistaken with the Odyssey’s bulky look, but in reality, it is the most agile and user-friendly van. It is highly composed and planted on the roads and blocks even the heaviest of irregularities with ease thanks to the revised suspension system. 

Apparently, the Odyssey runs under its rivals as long as the power output is concerned. The Dodge Grand Caravan produces a peak power output of 283 HP, which is almost 15% greater than its Japanese counterpart. However, as suspected, Honda manages to keep up with the lost power by accelerating to 60 MPH in 7.6 seconds, only 0.4 seconds later than the Dodge. Meanwhile, it clears the quarter-mile with just about 0.2 seconds out from the Dodge Grand Caravan.

This is the field where the Odyssey gained its admiration. The trust and confidence it enjoys now is a hard-earned result of Honda’s unprecedented efforts in the refinement of its powertrains. The 3.5L on this van may be kind of old, but it still delivers like a rockstar. Not talking about the performance, but the economy that it offers is next to nothing in the segment. Figuratively, the 2014 model of this life-sized minivan produces 19 miles per gallon in cities and promises around 28 MPG on the highways.

The combined 24 MPG is one of its class features of the Honda Odyssey. Despite the fact that no other competitor can match these figures, the 2014 Honda Odyssey equips a 24-gallon fuel tank, thus ensuring the longest range among all the natural competitors. Next in line to the Odyssey towards good economy is the Nissan Quest, but perhaps its days in the USA are numbered.

The 2014 Honda Odyssey seats up to eight people. All three rows of seats are comfortable, and the rear rows are highly configurable and easily accessible. The Odyssey's interior is well-built. Standard features include Bluetooth, a USB port, and an 8-inch display screen. 

Notable options include tri-zone automatic climate control, a power moonroof, a rear-seat entertainment system, navigation, and the HondaVAC in-car vacuum. The vacuum is innovative, but some think it's underpowered. Most of the audio and climate controls are straightforward and user-friendly. 

The Odyssey's maximum cargo capacity – 148.5 cubic feet – is outstanding for a minivan or any other vehicle. With both the second and third rows folded, there's enough space and a continuous cargo floor good for two ten-foot-long 2x4 studs, or 4x8 plywood. 

For smaller items, there's a media drawer with damped motion, a cooler compartment that can hold several cans or bottles, and a trash-bag ring—one of those simple things you'll wonder how you've managed without. Interior materials and trims aren't in the luxury realm, but they're not bad for also being Wet Wipe friendly. Some of the interior features in the 2014 Honda Odyssey are:

• Remote Trunk Release
• Leather Steering Wheel
• Keyless Ignition
• Three Zone Climate Control
• Speed-Proportional Power Steering
• Rear View Camera
• Universal Remote Transmitter (For Garage Door, Security System, Etc.)

2014 Honda Odyssey Infotainment System:

Though the vehicle is dated the brand ensures it gets all the contemporary features. Even a base-trim of the new Honda Odyssey includes a long list of standard features. Among them are power front seats, a 7-speaker AM/FM/CD audio with an 8-inch color interface screen, Bluetooth connectivity, and a rearview camera.

Step up trim levels and you get features like 3-zone automatic climate control, power sliding doors, push-button start, Honda’s LaneWatch camera system, a moonroof, leather, and navigation. 

• 270 Watts Stereo Output
• 3 Months Of Provided Satellite Radio Service
• 7 Total Speakers
• Video Monitor
• 8.0-inch touchscreen interface

All 2014 Honda Odyssey minivans feature refreshed sheet metal and interiors. The 2014 Odyssey tends to borrow more of its styling cues from the sedans in the Honda lineup than it does the brand's crossovers. A few years back, small bits of brightwork and a more arched roofline found their way to the Odyssey, but the most interesting addition was the "lightning bolt" hump along with the rear window–intended to improve visibility through the car's blind spots. 

The 2014 Odyssey has a low, wide appearance that makes it look more hunkered-down, at least for a minivan. Angular lines and sheet metal prevail, and it’s hard to miss the “lightning bolt” side beltline. On a less-subjective note, slight revisions to the 2014 Odyssey’s rear taillight housing and front grille and lower fascia keep it contemporary. 

Infusing a minivan with style and curb appeal is a difficult craft to master, but the Odyssey gets it right at least in some respects. While the front where the current Honda family mug and the rear is relatively anonymous, the sculpted profile makes this one easy to pick out of a crowd. Speaking of which, the Odyssey hones a lower stance than its competitors and thus feels largely connected to the pavement. 

The 2014 Odyssey is one of the safest vehicles on the road, just barely missing a perfect score. There are five full sets of LATCH connectors for installing car seats, and the system received an ease-of-use rating of Acceptable (the second-highest rating) from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. 

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) gives it five stars overall, with a sole four-star rating for rollover resistance. The Odyssey includes the expected safety features, such as stability control, anti-lock brakes, driver and passenger front side airbags, and full-length side curtains, but what makes it a standout is that it offers a class-leading six child-seat tether locations:

• Daytime Running Lights
• Stability Control
• Passenger Airbag Occupant Sensing Deactivation
• Tire Pressure Monitoring
• Traction Control
• Front, Rear, And Third Row Head Airbags
• Electronic Brakeforce Distribution
• Lane Departure Warning Accident Avoidance System
• Emergency Braking Assist

Honda raises the bar for the minivan community with this Odyssey. An upgraded infotainment system aced safety ratings, and an enchanting seating experience will provide the extreme solace of personal space to the onboard people. The ship's captain can keep an eye on its crew with the new parent support feature. The only bad thing about the 2014 Honda Odyssey is the painful way of second seat removal to gain the optimum cargo space utility.
