Unlike many rivals that have adopted turbocharged four-cylinder engines, the latest Honda Pilot continues forward with a 3.5-litre V6. This smooth and reliable engine is now mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission, yet fuel economy fails to impress. At some point Honda will need to add a hybrid variant. The Pilot stands out with generous, versatile interior space and more pleasant handling than most. There are no notable changes for the 2024 model year.
