2023 Honda Pilot
The Honda Pilot received a complete makeover for the 2023 model year. The new generation of this SUV has a new exterior look, more space in the cabin, and updates for the tech and performance. The new Pilot easily switches from a seven- to eight-passenger vehicle, and a new V-6 provides plenty of power. Here's a look at some of the features and equipment you can get with the 2023 Honda Pilot.
Trim Levels (Exterior)
The entry-level LX comes with 18-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, keyless entry, and rear privacy glass. Stepping up to the Sport gets you 20-inch wheels, LED fog lights, roof rails, dual chrome exhaust outlets, and gloss black roof rails. Another bump to the EX-L adds 18-inch wheels, a programmable power liftgate, heated side exterior mirrors, and an acoustic windshield. The new TrailSport has an off-road suspension, 18-inch alloy wheels, and all-terrain tires. At the top of the lineup, the Touring and Elite have a panoramic sunroof.
Engine (Power)
Power for the Pilot comes from a 3.5-liter V-6 that now puts out 285 horsepower, which is an increase from last year, and it generates 262 pound-feet of torque. It works with Honda's 10-speed automatic transmission, and it comes with front-wheel drive. All-wheel drive is optional for any of the trim levels except the Elite and TrailSport, where it comes standard.
Performance
The upgraded engine and new transmission make the Pilot feel quicker and more responsive. The TrailSport's rugged design and extra ground clearance make it capable of tackling some rough terrain. This trim even has a Trail driving mode that adjusts the throttle response and shifting for low-speed driving. When equipped with the available tow package, the Pilot can tow up to 5,000 pounds.
Interior
There's room for up to eight in the Pilot with a second-row bench seat. Opting for captain's chairs reduces seating to seven, and the Touring and Elite have a second-row seat with a removable middle portion that can be stored under the cargo floor. Depending on the trim, you can get the Pilot with heated front- and second-row seats, a heated steering wheel, and ventilated front seats.
A 9-inch touch-screen comes in the EX-L and above. These higher trims also have wireless charging, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and navigation. The Touring has a 12-speaker Bose stereo system and a Wi-Fi hotspot, and the Elite adds a digital instrument panel with important information for the driver.
Safety Features
Every 2023 Honda Pilot comes with the Honda Sensing suite of advanced driver aids. It includes a forward collision warning system with automatic braking, lane-keep assist, and a driver attention warning system that alerts the driver if they appear to be fatigued. Adaptive cruise control is another standard safety system, and all trims have a tire pressure monitor and rear seat reminder. Front and rear parking sensors come in the EX-L and above, and the TrailSport, Touring, and Elite have a 360-degree surround-view camera system. The Elite also adds to this with a head-up display.
