Typically, modern Honda Odyssey models sold in the United States feature 10 airbags. This article outlines the common airbag setup and notes exceptions for older model years and different markets. The last U.S.-market Odyssey was the 2023 model year; Honda has since discontinued Odyssey production in the U.S. For exact figures on a specific vehicle, consult the owner's manual or Honda's official specification sheet for that VIN.
What airbags are included in recent Odyssey models?
The following breakdown reflects the airbag configuration you’ll find on most current US-spec Odysseys. Exact counts can vary by year and trim, so use this as a guide rather than a guarantee for every unit.
- Front airbags for the driver and front passenger
- Knee airbags for the driver and front passenger
- Seat-mounted side airbags for the front seats
- Side curtain airbags that protect all three rows (left and right)
In practice, these components contribute to a total around 10 airbags in typical configurations. Always confirm the exact number for a specific vehicle via the owner's manual or the Honda build sheet, as features can vary by year/trim and market.
Notes on variations by year and region
Older Honda Odyssey generations and non-U.S. market models have used different airbag configurations. Some earlier trims or regional variants may employ a smaller set of airbags. If you are researching a specific car, check the Safety page in the brochure, the vehicle identification label on the door jamb, or the NHTSA VIN lookup for the exact airbag count for that unit.
Summary
Most recent Honda Odyssey models offer about 10 airbags, providing coverage from frontal protection to full-length side curtain deployment and knee protection for the driver and front passenger. Since U.S. production for the Odyssey ended after the 2023 model year, prospective buyers or researchers should verify airbag counts on a per-vehicle basis via official Honda documentation or the owner’s manual.
