Honda Odyssey fuel economy: what Sacramento families can expect

The Honda Odyssey is rated 19 mpg in the city, 28 on the highway and 22 combined, and a Sacramento family should budget around that combined figure. Fuel cost comes down to two numbers: the rating and the price of a gallon where you fill up.

Keep reading below, then schedule a test drive in Sacramento. Bringing your own numbers to the lot settles this faster than any spec sheet.

What gas mileage does the Honda Odyssey get in Sacramento?

The 2026 Honda Odyssey is rated 19 mpg in the city, 28 on the highway and 22 combined. Plan around the 22, because a week of errands and freeway runs uses both the city and highway numbers. These EPA certified figures belong to the base Odyssey with front-wheel drive. At Capital City Honda, we sell new Odyssey inventory.

How much does it cost to fill a Honda Odyssey in Sacramento?

A fill-up costs the gallons you buy times the pump price. The Odyssey’s 22 mpg combined rating turns any number of miles into gallons, and from there into dollars. Divide the pump price by 22 to get the fuel cost of one mile. Check the price at the station you use on your regular route, because that price is the number that moves the bill most.

What does a year of Odyssey fuel cost a Sacramento family?

A year of fuel is the miles your family drives divided by 22, times the local price per gallon. Run the math three times to see the range: once for a light driving year, once for a typical year and once for a heavy year. Each run uses the same division, so the only inputs that change are your miles and the pump price.

How does Sacramento driving affect Odyssey fuel economy?

The 19 city and 28 highway ratings come from lab tests that the EPA defines in detail. Automakers test a representative vehicle over 5 defined test cycles on a dynamometer (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), 2026). Your own route is the one that counts, and the worst stretch on the Sacramento commute is State Route 51. Southbound State Route 51 at Exposition Boulevard was the worst bottleneck in Sacramento County, costing drivers 215,598 vehicle hours of delay in the PM peak across 251 observed days in calendar year 2024 (California Department of Transportation, District 3 Mobility Performance Report, 2025 Quarter 2, Top 20 Bottlenecks for the 2024 Calendar Year).

Which Honda models use less gas than the Odyssey for Sacramento families?

No Honda in the EPA figures below beats the Odyssey’s 22 mpg combined, and the Pilot with front-wheel drive ties it. The Odyssey also posts the best highway number of the four.

If a hybrid is the goal, the Accord Hybrid is among the new Honda models we sell. A family that needs three rows and room for eight will look at the Odyssey or the Pilot first.

How can Sacramento families keep Odyssey fuel economy up?

Keep the tires at the right pressure and the oil changed on schedule. At Capital City Honda, our express service lanes handle oil and filter changes, tire rotations, multi-point inspections and engine filters with no appointment needed. The service center has factory-trained technicians, and we offer service and parts coupons for oil changes, brakes, tires and batteries.

Cheryl M., reviewing the service department on Google in September 2026, put it this way: “This is a Costco referral so I have confidence that the pricing is reasonable, although I don’t know enough to compare. That said, the service people have been uniformly polite, knowledgeable, considerate about keeping me informed, pleasant personalities and helpful with any questions or issues I’ve had. The waiting area is bright and comfortable – they even have a machine with GOOD coffee! My expected wait times have been more or less as anticipated. Most importantly, I now have over 200,000 miles on my 1917 Honda CRV and I’m still confident in and delighted with my car.”

Frequently asked questions

Is there a hybrid Honda Odyssey?

The EPA certification record for the 2026 Odyssey lists a gasoline engine, a 3.5-liter six-cylinder, with front-wheel drive.

Do the mpg ratings change by Odyssey trim?

The 19 city, 28 highway and 22 combined ratings belong to the base Odyssey with front-wheel drive, and this article uses those figures throughout.

How is the combined 22 mpg worked out?

Under 40 CFR part 600, subpart D, the combined estimate is the harmonic average of the city and highway values, weighted 0.55 and 0.45 respectively (eCFR, current). That is why the combined figure, not the highway number, is the one to budget around.

Manan U. described the purchase in an August 2026 Google review: “We had an amazing experience buying our brand new Honda CRV Sport. It was the most easiest painless process. Alberto was an amazing consultant who took care of us and treated us wonderfully. This was honestly the best experience buying a car we have ever had and would recommend anyone trying to buy a new car to come to this dealership and work with them.”

Benny L. opened a July 2026 Google review of buying a car here with: “I had a great experience buying my car at Capital Honda. Filip Klcesko was awesome to work with. He took the time to work with my budget, answered all my questions, and helped me get a deal I was happy with. He made the whole process easy from start to finish. I would definitely recommend asking for Filip if you’re looking for a new car. Thanks again for making it such a smooth experience!”
