2011 Honda Odyssey: Pricing and Trim Levels
One of the most confusing aspects of new-car shopping is figuring out the different trim levels, all of the added options and the final price you’re going to pony up to get what you want.
For 2011, Honda has added an all-new trim level to its Odyssey minivan. The top of the lineup is the Touring Elite with a $43,250 price tag before a destination charge of $780. Most other Odyssey trims see a roughly $1,000 bump in price, but the 2011 has a more fuel-efficient engine and a host of new features you can read about in our full review here.
If you think some of these prices sound high, consider that 70% of previous-generation Odyssey owners bought the EX-L trim level or higher. The 2011 Toyota Sienna also can be equipped upward of $45,000, while the Odyssey’s top price is set at that $43,250 mark.
Below, we’ll explain what you get with the Touring Elite, the grand pooh-bah of Odyssey trims, and the other six trim levels — Honda doesn’t offer options for the Odyssey. We’ll look at each trim’s features, the price difference from the 2010s and what a comparably equipped 2011 Toyota Sienna with front-wheel drive and V-6 engine costs.

Wow.. Minivans have gotten super expensive! I remember back in 1994 buying a decently loaded Nissan Quest for around $24K. I could not fathom spending $40k on a minivan!
M,
Looking at CPI (I found 218 for this year and 148 for 1994), I'm getting that the same Nissan Quest in 1994 would now cost over $35,000. Considering the differences in engine capabilities, fit and finish, and all the new features and gadgets, I'd say $40,000 for this Odyssey isn't far-fetched.
They can have it for 40 and for 30 too. I got Mercury Villager Sport for 20K in 2000. Also, when gas prices were high in 2008, both , Sienna and Oddy were selling $4000 under invoice.
Minivan shouldn't cost this much. This is a cash cow for makers.
I can not believe that Honda makes you get a Touring version to get a 6 speed automatic.
Disgraceful.
George,
As I note in my review, there really isn't a big difference in performance between the two transmissions. the 5 does just fine for moving a minivan.
Pretty significant mileage improvement with the 6 speed.
Style,
The Touring with six speed also gets low rolling resistance tires and an underbody aero kit as well as different mirrors and wheels to also improve mileage. It's not all the transmission. But yeah, and extra mpg in this range is certainly nice. But it costs a lot to get too.
Confused about the radio.
Does the EX-L ($34,450) come with USB input, hard drive, or both? If hard drive, which one (2GB or 15GB)?
Does the hard drive store MP3/WMA or audio format or both?
Does it have satellite radio?
Thanks....
I've been waiting 10years for this van. i own a 2001 Ody LX that has served my family well.
I think I will get the loaded out Touring Elite and keep it for 10+ years also.
My only complaint with this model is the gas mileage. Even though it is class leading its not enough. It should be getting 30+ hwy. Why not put a Honda diesel in it?
These look great, but does seem expensive since you have to shell out so much more for the six speed automatic.
I appreciate Honda keeping the segment fresh & alive with this new van, but it is just not attractive, especially compared to the beauty that the outgoing model is. The kink is what ruins it, and makes the front door windows so much bigger than the rear ones it give a really strange appearance.
