The final exterior design of the next generation Odyssey was leaked in patent images, which appear to look similar to the Odyssey sold in Japan. It features a 2016 Honda Civic-inspired grille design, quad-section Jewel Eye headlights and contemporary styling changes. The sliding mechanism of the rear door appears to have moved closer to the window on the fifth gen model.

Under the hood, the 2017 Honda Odyssey is likely to source power from a 3.5-liter naturally aspirated i-VTEC V6 gasoline engine from the 2016 Honda Pilot, which produces 250 hp. Paired to the only engine option is likely to be a 9-speed automatic transmission.
