Overview & Reviews

The engine is upgraded to a more sophisticated 2.3-liter, good for an extra 10 horsepower and seven pound-feet of torque. New looks up front come from a revised bumper and grille, and the interior gets dressed in new fabric.

• Stylish, 4-door minivan that drives like a sedan.

• Underpowered engine.

  The Honda Oddesey is a great small mini- van which is a great choice. This mini-van handles excellently and is great in the snow even without AWD.

  Probably one of the best cars ever made - 1998 Honda Odyssey
  By johnnyVDO - June 20 - 2:00 am

  I bought my Odyssey because it had the highest reliability rating of any vehicle in Consumer Reports and because Ive had good luck in the past with Hondas. After 80,000 miles the car is still tight and nothing has broken. The only time I went to the dealer was to get a front brake job at 50,000 miles. I also went through a set of tires and a battery. Other than maintenance, the car has cost me $0.00 to repair! WOW! I get about 22 mpg around town and the car handles like a sedan with independent suspension and 4 wheel disk brakes. Fantastic car! No wonder the resale value is so high.

  Solid, reliable, practical - 1998 Honda Odyssey
  By BS-NY - December 30 - 2:00 am

  Is it a sports car? No, its a minivan. And its about as good as they get. The older model -- slightly smaller than the new one introduced in 1999 -- is more car-like in its size, handling, exit/egress and ride than any other minivan youll drive, including the newer Odysseys. Its reliable. Its economical. Its safe. So what if its just a little bit boring?

  Honda Odyssey - 1998 Honda Odyssey
  By julesagain - March 30 - 2:00 am

  I love this van and I will drive it until it dies. I test drove every minivan and SUV before buying this one. It drives the most like a Honda car - good suspension, tight steering, confident feel in traffic. I drive over 25K miles per year in the worst traffic in the US. This van has been a champ and has never left me stranded. If you have resisted minivans because you love your sports car, this one is the least painless if you need the space. I really love it and resist driving our other vehicles now.

  Wonderful Car - 1998 Honda Odyssey

  Practical solution to the many demands of life. 2.3 litre VTEC engine is a must for performance (165 hp)
