Drivers who want a family-friendly vehicle can't go wrong with the 2023 Honda Pilot. Fully redesigned, the Honda Pilot is bigger than it used to be, which means passengers have more room in the second and third rows. The all-new Honda Pilot is enviably versatile and loaded with sought-after features.

About the SUV's Powertrain
When you visit our Honda dealership in Houston, TX to test-drive the Honda Pilot, you'll see that the SUV relies on a 3.5-liter V6 engine for power. The vehicle's powerplant comes through with 285 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. That's enough power for the Honda Pilot to tow up to 5,000 lbs with the appropriate equipment.
A new 10-speed automatic transmission pairs with the SUV's engine. Front-wheel drive is standard for all trims except the TrailSport and Elite models. Those two models have standard all-wheel drive, which is optional for the other trims.
Of all the SUV's trims, the TrailSport model is the most off-road oriented. This trim's AWD system can send 70 percent of the vehicle's torque to the rear wheels. If necessary, the system can send all that power to just one of the rear wheels if the other one is losing grip and/or traction.
Passenger Space and Cargo Room
Motorists are often curious about how roomy the Honda Pilot is when they stop by Gillman Honda Houston to check out the SUV. With a bench in the second row, the Honda Pilot can accommodate eight passengers. If the SUV has captain's chairs in the middle row instead, the Honda Pilot will have seats for seven travelers across three breezy rows.
Thanks to its redesign, the Honda Pilot now has more cargo room behind the third row. More specifically, the SUV has 22.4 cubic feet of cargo space in the way back. Folding the vehicle's second and third rows increases the SUV's maximum cargo capacity to a cavernous 113.7 cubic feet.
A Look at the Vehicle's Standard Features
