What are the Honda Odyssey’s EPA city, highway and combined mpg ratings?
The Honda Odyssey is rated at 19 mpg city, 28 mpg highway and 22 mpg combined for the 2026 model year, the figures Honda publishes for the base gasoline model. Group 1 Honda Panama City sells the Odyssey at 3601 E 15th St, Panama City, FL 32404, so a Bay County family can see the vehicle behind the rating.
The combined number is not a simple average of the other two. EPA weights the city figure at 55% and the highway figure at 45% (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 2026). A family whose week mixes errands with highway trips will land between the two, and the combined figure is the one that reflects that mix.
What mpg, price and seating does each Honda Odyssey trim have?
The base gasoline Odyssey, a front-wheel-drive model with a 3.5-liter six-cylinder engine, carries the 19 city, 28 highway and 22 combined rating. Starting prices run from $42,795 for the EX-L to $51,695 for the Elite, with the Sport at $43,895 and the Touring at $47,495.
Every trim seats eight. A family choosing between trims is weighing price and what each trim adds, not seat count.
How does Panama City stop-and-go traffic change Honda Odyssey mpg?
The city rating of 19 mpg is the one that applies to stop-and-go driving. The average commute for workers living in Panama City is 21.4 minutes each way (U.S. Census Bureau, 2024), so a daily drive in town will sit nearer the 19 mpg figure than the 28.
A family that drives both kinds of road in one week will see a mileage that falls between them.
How much does it cost to fuel a Honda Odyssey in Panama City?
The EPA certification record puts the base Odyssey’s fuel cost at $2,850 a year. That estimate is built on the combined rating, so every mpg a family gains on the road lowers the bill and every mpg it loses raises it.
A household’s real bill depends on how many miles it drives and what gas costs on the day it fills up. Start with the $2,850 figure, then adjust it for your own yearly miles.
How can Panama City families keep Honda Odyssey mpg up?
Keep the tires at the pressure listed on the driver’s door placard. Underinflated tires roll with more resistance, and that costs mileage on every trip.
Pack light for beach days. Extra weight in the cargo area and third row makes the engine work harder. Accelerate gently from stoplights and leave more space ahead, so the van rolls to a stop rather than braking hard, and idle less in school pickup lines.
How do Honda Pilot and Odyssey mpg and seating compare?
The front-wheel-drive gasoline Pilot is rated 19 city, 27 highway and 22 combined. Its combined figure matches the Odyssey’s 22, while the Odyssey’s highway figure of 28 sits one mpg higher. The all-wheel-drive Pilot drops to 19 city, 25 highway and 21 combined, and the Pilot TrailSport is rated 18, 23 and 20.
On seating, the Pilot holds up to eight passengers in most trims and seven in the TrailSport, while the Odyssey seats eight in every trim. The Pilot Sport 2WD starts at $42,395, just under the Odyssey EX-L’s $42,795.

Frequently asked questions
What type of gas does the Honda Odyssey use?
The Odyssey runs on gasoline. The EPA record for the base model lists a 3.5-liter six-cylinder engine on gasoline, so the 19, 28 and 22 mpg ratings apply to that engine.
How far can a Honda Odyssey go on a full tank?
Each gallon takes the base Odyssey about 22 miles on the combined rating, 19 in town and 28 on the highway. Multiply the gallons your tank holds by those figures to get a range, using the highway number for long drives and the city number for errands.
How close does real-world Odyssey mpg come to the EPA rating?
The EPA rating is a lab figure. Automakers run a representative vehicle through 5 defined test cycles on a dynamometer, and EPA audits manufacturer data and independently confirms roughly 15% of results at its NVFEL facility (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 2026). Traffic, heat and cargo change the mileage on the road, so the 19 mpg city figure is the one to plan against for town driving.
How much does air conditioning change Odyssey fuel economy in Florida heat?
Running the air conditioner adds load on the engine, so a hot-weather trip can come in below the combined figure.
How does a full load of passengers and gear affect Odyssey mpg?
Passengers and cargo add weight on top of the vehicle’s own weight. Honda lists a 4,526-pound curb weight for the EX-L, and every added person and bag comes on top of that figure. A loaded Odyssey on a beach run will see lower mpg than an empty one.
