No. The Honda Odyssey in North America is not electric; current models run on a gasoline V6 with a 10-speed automatic transmission, and there is no official electric or plug-in hybrid Odyssey available as of 2026.
Powertrain and performance
The Odyssey’s current powertrain is a 3.5-liter V6 with i-VTEC, delivering about 280 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. It uses a 10-speed automatic transmission and comes with front-wheel drive as standard; all-wheel drive is not offered. EPA fuel economy for the typical front-drive Odyssey is roughly 19 mpg city, 28 mpg highway, and about 22 mpg combined, depending on trim and equipment.
There is no hybrid or electric variant in the U.S./Canada lineup; the model remains gasoline-only as of 2026. For consumers seeking electrified family-hauler options, Honda points to other models (such as hybrids in the CR-V or Accord lines) and to upcoming electric vehicles like the Honda Prologue SUV, not a minivan.
Key specifications at a glance:
- Engine: 3.5-liter V6 i-VTEC, around 280 horsepower
- Transmission: 10-speed automatic
- Drivetrain: Front-wheel drive standard; no all-wheel drive option
- Fuel economy (EPA est.): ~19 mpg city / ~28 mpg highway / ~22 mpg combined
- Hybrid/Electric options: None; no official Odyssey hybrid or EV variant exists in current markets
Bottom line for powertrain: The Odyssey remains a traditional gasoline minivan. If electrified options are a priority, shoppers will need to consider alternatives from other brands or wait for future Honda announcements on minivan electrification.
Electrified minivan landscape
The market for electrified minivans is limited. Here are the notable options available or announced as of 2026:
- Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid (plug-in hybrid): A PHEV with an estimated 32 miles of electric driving range, then switches to the gasoline engine for extended use. It combines electric range with conventional fuel efficiency for a practical daily-use minivan.
- Toyota Sienna Hybrid: A hybrid-only minivan with no plug-in capability, delivering strong overall efficiency (about 36 mpg combined) without EV range.
- Fully electric minivans in the market: The U.S. market has limited availability of fully electric minivans, with options largely dependent on region and import timing. European and other markets have experimented with electric vans, but widespread availability in the U.S. remains limited as of 2026.
In summary, if you specifically want an electric minivan, the current field offers limited fully electric candidates; the most practical electrified options in the U.S. segment today are the Pacifica Hybrid (PHEV) and the Sienna Hybrid (non-plug-in). Honda’s Odyssey itself remains gasoline-powered for the time being, with no announced electric or plug-in variant.
Summary
The Honda Odyssey is not electric as of 2026. It continues to be a gasoline-powered minivan with a 3.5L V6 engine and a 10-speed automatic transmission, without a hybrid or fully electric variant in the lineup. For buyers seeking electrified alternatives, the market currently offers the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid and Toyota Sienna Hybrid as the primary options in the minivan segment, while Honda’s electrification push centers on other models and future EVs rather than a dedicated electric Odyssey.
