Honda's three-row Pilot has been a segment stalwart for years and it's all-new for 2023. So can it keep up with rivals like the Kia Telluride, Hyundai Palisade, Toyota Highlander (and Grand Highlander), Nissan Pathfinder, Ford Explorer and Chevy Traverse?
The 2023 Honda Pilot continues its legacy of being a reliable, comfortable, and versatile SUV. It's a vehicle that's designed with the modern family in mind, offering ample space for both passengers and cargo. The Pilot's three-row seating comfortably accommodates up to eight passengers, making it an ideal choice for larger families or those who frequently travel with a crowd.
Under the hood, the Pilot maintains its reputation for performance. It's powered by a robust V6 engine that delivers a smooth, responsive ride. The Pilot's all-wheel-drive system ensures you're ready to tackle any road condition, whether you're navigating city streets or venturing off the beaten path.
Inside, the 2023 Pilot is all about comfort and convenience. The cabin is decked out with high-quality materials, giving it a premium feel. The infotainment system is user-friendly and comes with a host of features like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The Pilot also boasts a suite of advanced safety features, including Honda's Sensing suite of driver-assist technologies, ensuring peace of mind on every journey.
On the outside, the 2023 Pilot sports a sleek, modern design that's sure to turn heads. Its bold lines and dynamic styling make it stand out in the crowded SUV market.
There's also the off-road oriented TrailSport edition, which now sports higher ground clearance, beefier tires, and a host of other goodies and upgrades aimed at making the Pilot a more-capable hauler when the roads get rough.
Overall, the 2023 Honda Pilot is more than just a practical family SUV. It's a vehicle that offers a blend of comfort, performance, and advanced features, all wrapped up in a stylish package. Whether you're on the school run, heading out on a family road trip, or simply commuting to work, the Pilot is designed to make every journey a pleasure.

I just purchased the model car color shown in video except for the interior which in my Honda is black. I don't do brown. Ever! Mine is also a 2024. I currently have a 2009 Honda Pilot EXL and it's been a great vehicle and never let me down! I didn't think I would be buying another one, but I really just don't like the idea of a 4 cylinder car with turbos or hybrid. It's the cost of something going wrong with either technology that can bite you later! I like the idea that Honda engineered the V-6 for better emissions as I'm not anti enviornment, but still like a tried and true stand alone quality motor witha proven track record. So, back to the Honda it was and I have no regrets. The dealer gave me one hell of a deal as the weather was bad and on a weekend and the GM didn't want to see deals lost. I was thinking of the new Lexus GX 550 as the only alternative, but isn't coming out until mid year or so with delays and earthquake that shut things down for a bit. It also has a V6, but sadly with turbos, but would have been the only turbo car I would have bought. But, the sticker price also killed it. No brainer going back to tried and true. Bottom line, I love it!

Was looking getting into one, but the center console with the gear selection takes up too much space, and not having a hybrid model for the price really is a bummer. Currently own a 07 Ridgeline RTL. V6 great engine, but out dated. Currently not worth the money IMO. Let wait see what Honda does by 2025.

Pilot's fold-flat cargo area is more functional than the Grand Highlander, has a V6 which the Grand Highlander does not have. But the Grand Highlander is more chiseled looking on the outside and more luxurious on the inside. If Honda is less conservative with its design, then it would have a real winner on its hand. But of course, Honda is too conservative and arrogant to change now.

Telluride is the best in this segment (esp EX and up trims). The drive, handling, maneuverability, braking, comfort, road noise, mpg all makes the Telluride my top choice. The interiors are definitely more on the luxury end compared to others except Palisade. On a highway, I typically get 27/28 mpg in ECO mode. The drive in ECO mode is still pretty good. Never felt like changing the mode to sport.

The grand highlander hybrid max is 2nd to no 3 row suv, better in everything but then you look at price and then size, for someone who drives town daily, hybrid max will be too big for me and this fits my personality. It's all about taste and preference.

Yes I will because I've been a Honda/Acura owner for over 40yrs. I'm not going to change auto brand. The Toyota Highlander I don't like looks over 4th Gen Pilot. My 2 neighbors in houses next to mine each have Highlanders. The exterior frontal looks of 4th Gen Pilot are better looking to me. I also like the IVTM4 Torque Vectorng AWD System in Pilot. Had expected Ridgeline redesign this year on the same newer MDX,Pilot platform. Hasn't happened yet so decided on Pilot. We already have Gen 1 Ridgeline in family.

Just like fastening seatbelt each time you drive. I don't have feature in my current older Acura/Honda vehicles. But I have driven a few Acura loaner cars when mine was in dealer service. Been seeing this posted for number of years on Ridgeline Owners Club. I change the radio station or adjust the temperature in the vehicle more times each drive than it would take once each trip to push disable button.
