Honda Odyssey MPG, gas tank, tires, and towing

The 2026 Honda Odyssey gets 22 mpg combined, according to the EPA, the same rating every Odyssey has had since 2014. With the 19.5-gallon tank on 2018–2023 models, that is roughly 430 miles per tank. Every Odyssey from 2008 on can tow 3,500 lb, though the 2018 manual limits trims other than Touring and Elite to 3,000 lb.

Odyssey gas mileage by year

Open a model year to see each EPA version. A 2010 Odyssey is rated 18 to 20 mpg combined; from 2014 on, every version is rated 22 mpg. A minivan full of people and luggage will see less, and so will one that does mostly short school runs.

Odyssey tire size and pressure

Odyssey pressures are on the high side for a passenger vehicle, because a loaded minivan is heavy. The 2008–2010 LX and EX take 33 psi front and 35 psi rear; the 2011–2017 Odyssey on 17-inch tires takes 33 psi; 18-inch tires take 35 psi; and the 19-inch tires on 2018 and later upper trims take 36 psi. Check them cold, and use the label on the driver’s door jamb if your tires differ. If the warning light comes on, see tire pressure light.

Odyssey towing capacity

Honda rates the Odyssey to tow up to 3,500 lb in every manual we checked from 2008 to 2023. One exception: the 2018 manual gives 3,500 lb only for the Touring and Elite and 3,000 lb for other trims. The limit includes the trailer and everything on it, and drops as you add passengers and cargo, so read the load table in your manual before hitching up a camper.

  • 5th generation (2018–2026): up to 3,500 lb7
  • 4th generation (2011–2017): up to 3,500 lb5
  • 3rd generation (2008–2010): up to 3,500 lb2

Recalls: check by VIN

Recalls are tied to the VIN. Enter the 17 characters at nhtsa.gov/recalls; the VIN is at the base of the windshield on the driver’s side and on your registration. On a minivan with sliding doors and child seats, it is worth checking once a year. Honda dealers do recall repairs for free.

What to record in your log

  • Fill-ups with the date, odometer, and gallons. School-run weeks and road-trip weeks give very different numbers, and the log shows which is which.
  • Each Maintenance Minder code with the date and mileage, especially any code with a 4, since the V6 has a timing belt.
  • Sliding door and tailgate repairs, with dates. They are the parts a family uses most.

A car maintenance log keeps it in one place.
