Based on the fifth-generation Accord sedan, it was offered with an optional 4WD (with RA2 and RA4 chassis), and from 1997 with a 3.0-litre V6 J30A engine with the RA5 chassis code (front-wheel drive only). The first-generation Odyssey was a raised wagon from Honda that was launched in Japan and North America in 1994. Honda also offered the larger North American Odyssey in Japan as the Honda LaGreat between 19. Since model year 1999, Honda has marketed a larger (large MPV-class) Odyssey in North America and a smaller Odyssey in Japan and other markets. Subsequent generations diverged to reflect market variations, and Honda built a plant in Lincoln, Alabama, incorporating the ability to manufacture larger models. The first generation Odyssey was marketed in Europe as the Honda Shuttle. The result was a smaller minivan, in the compact MPV class, that was well received in the Japanese domestic market but less well received in North America.

The Odyssey had originally been conceived and engineered in Japan, in the wake of the country's economic crisis of the 1990s – which in turn imposed severe constraints on the vehicle's size and overall concept, dictating the minivan's manufacture in an existing facility with minimal modification. The Honda Odyssey ( Japanese: ホンダ・オデッセイ, Hepburn: Honda Odessei ) is a minivan manufactured by Japanese automaker Honda since 1994, marketed in most of the world and currently in its fifth-generation.
