Advantages

Magic Slide® 2nd-row seats standard on EX and above.

Easy third-row access.

With the available Magic Slide® 2nd-row seats, you can adjust the seats side-to-side for better access to the third row, car seats, cargo and more. The Sedona can’t slide like that.

The Odyssey can help you stay on the road.

The Road Departure Mitigation System (RDM)* can determine if you cross over detected lanes without signaling, can provide steering assistance to help you return to your lane or provide braking to help you keep from leaving the roadway entirely. This advanced safety technology comes standard on the Odyssey, but you won’t find it on the Sedona.
CabinWatch® standard on Touring and Elite. CabinTalk® through headphones on Touring. CabinTalk through headphones or speakers on Elite.

Stay connected with the kids.

CabinWatch®—available only on the Odyssey—lets you keep an eye on your rear passengers, even in the dark. You can also speak to them with available CabinTalk®, which lets your voice come through either their connected headphones or the rear speakers. The Sedona doesn’t offer either of these high-tech features.

HondaVAC® standard on Elite.

Clean machine.

Don’t worry about crackers in the seats or dirt on the floor mats. With a long reach and a removable waste bin, the available HondaVAC® makes it easy to clean up little messes in the Odyssey. The Sedona doesn’t offer a built-in vacuum.

Advanced Rear Entertainment System standard on Touring and Elite.

Get the show on the road.

Standard on the Odyssey Elite, the Advanced Rear Entertainment System with a 10.2-inch display makes viewing easy for 2nd- and 3rd-row passengers, and also offers audio streaming. You’ll have to pay extra for a similar system in the Sedona.
