To carry a 3-4 bike rack with your 2015 Honda Odyssey you'll need a 2 inch trailer hitch like the Draw Tite Class III part # 76025 which is a confirmed fit. I really like this hitch as it has a concealed crosstube which means you'll only see the hitch opening down below the bumper of the hitch. I attached an install video for this hitch for you to check out as well.

For a similarly priced bike rack to the discontinued Eclipse, I'd recommend the Curt 4-Bike Rack part # C18030 as this rack has anti-sway cradles that prevent the bikes from being able to swing forward and back and contact each other.

If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
