Honda Odyssey Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1999–2003) — Second Generation
The second-generation Honda Odyssey offers minivan practicality, but choosing a version means looking beyond cabin space. Consider how its engine, transmission and drivetrain suit your usual journeys and road conditions.
Selected gasoline examples include the 2.3 AT with front-wheel or all-wheel drive, and the front-wheel-drive 2.4 CVT. Alongside your Honda Odyssey engine choice, consider gearbox behaviour: a conventional automatic uses distinct gears, while a CVT varies its ratio continuously. All-wheel drive can help you pull away on slippery surfaces, though tyre grip remains essential.
