2026 Honda Odyssey EX-L Overview near Lakewood, NJ
2026 Honda Odyssey in Smoke Blue Pearl shown above.
As the base trim of the 2026 Honda Odyssey, its EX-L version is surprisingly jam-packed with features that will be of great convenience to you and your household members. From amenities meant to optimize storage space to technological niceties, this minivan has a lot in store for any interested buyer who stops by Honda of Toms River. A brief overview of how daily traveling life will look like in the Honda Odyssey EX-L is down below, and we encourage you to stick around to learn a few informational points about this vehicle!
Interior
There’s an array of creature comforts waiting to be found by you in the Honda Odyssey EX-L. One of them is in the cargo area, and that’s a rear storage well that is fairly deep to accommodate all sorts of travel necessities. If you don’t want your items shuffling around the space while you take twists and turns navigating to Ocean County Park, utilize the cargo area bag hooks so that they remain in a secure position. Speaking of disturbances, the Odyssey’s Active Noise Cancellation™ will negate the sounds of cylinder deactivation so that passengers are less prone to headaches during longer travels. If UV rays are ever an annoyance for your occupants situated in the middle, the 2nd-row integrated sunshades will be a big benefit in those scenarios.
Performance
Since the 2026 Honda Odyssey EX-L can fit nearly twice as many people as a conventional sedan or compact SUV can, it naturally needs a brawny powertrain to get the job done. The standard 3.5L V6 engine is what this minivan calls upon to summon 282 horsepower1 and 262 lb.-ft. of torque2, which is a system also shared with Honda’s rugged models. Its strength is carried over to the front wheels due to the FWD configuration, a valuable drivetrain to have during those rainy weeks throughout the spring season in Lakewood. What’s also helpful is the Odyssey’s 3,500-lb. maximum towing capacity3, which handles transporting campers with incredible aptitude. The 10-speed automatic transmission lends a major hand in this minivan’s hauling abilities, as it has a high gear distribution.
Technology
One piece of technology that will be useful regardless of whether or not you’re taking a local trip to Pine Park or somewhere much further out than that is the CabinTalk® In-Car PA System. Use this feature to speak to your rear seat passengers using an intercom system, which is convenient to have when cruising on busy highways where road noise is more prevalent. Include those sitting in the very back of all the fun by inviting them to synchronize their smartphone to the 9-inch color touchscreen display using either Apple CarPlay®4 or Android Auto™5 integrations. Anyone who isn’t participating in the disc jockeying session can turn to the Wi-Fi® Hotspot6 to access the internet for alternative forms of entertainment. Contact us if you see yourself and your little ones replicating these very scenarios so that we can set you up with an appointment to test drive the Honda Odyssey EX-L!

Hopefully Honda Corp will own up to the faulty A/C for the second time. 5 star is as for the gentleman (I believe Mike) that I dealt with. Honda Corp we will see if they honor the warranty. ”

At first the car I really wanted was gone when I arrived, however Frankie and Joshua made sure that I was able to walk out of there with a very good car, at a reasonable price. They were friendly throughout out and made feel like an appreciated customer. To top it off, they delivered the car to me since I had a rental for the time being. 4 out of 5 stars because there is always room for improvement. However, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Will definitely return and highly recommend 👌 👍 ”
