2021 Honda Pilot

As a top-ranked midsize SUV, the 2021 Honda Pilot has a wide variety of standard features and fulfills the everyday needs of any crossover shopper. The 2021 model year gains a nine-speed automatic transmission, paddle shifters, and an automatic start-stop system standard. In addition, base LX trims get dual-zone automatic climate control, and the new Special Edition gets black 20-inch wheels, a foot-activated power tailgate, and wireless charging. Let's quickly dive into the Pilot's trims, engine, and more.

Trim Levels

You'll see the 2021 Honda Pilot in seven trim levels: LX, EX, EX-L, SE (Special Edition), Touring, Elite, and Black Edition. For exterior standout features, the LX has automatic headlights, and upgrading to the EX-L adds a sunroof.

The Touring trim gets roof rails, whereas the Elite trim tops the range of the Honda Pilot with a panoramic sunroof and auto-dimming and power-folding side mirrors. The limited Black Edition has, of course, black-tinted body features such as the grille and 20-inch wheels.

Engine

With a nine-speed automatic transmission as standard for 2021, the Pilot comes with a 3.5-liter V-6 engine that makes 280 horsepower. You'll experience quick acceleration and plenty of power, handed right to you by the graceful transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard and all-wheel drive optional except on Elite and Black Edition models, which come standard with all-wheel drive.

Performance

Even on rough pavement, this crossover manages to provide stable handling and an overall comfortable ride. The accuracy of its steering and the intelligence of its suspension system make the Pilot fun to ride in and drive. When properly equipped, it can tow up to 5,000 pounds, making it a handy wagon for larger boats or a good-sized camper.

Interior

Drivers get 8.5 cubic feet of cargo space behind the third-row seats, and up to 109.2 cubic feet with the space behind the first-row and second-row seats included. The EX-L trim has a power liftgate for easier loading, while a hands-free liftgate comes standard in the Special Edition, Touring, Elite, and Black Edition trims. You'll get eight comfortable, roomy seats inside the cabin, or seven with the available captain's chairs upgrade.

The interior is attractive, and the usage of premium materials inside adds to its overall look. As for standard infotainment features, you get a 5-inch display, a seven-speaker stereo, Bluetooth, and two USB ports. An 8-inch touch screen, HondaLink (for locking and unlocking the car with a smartphone), Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, satellite radio, HD Radio, wireless device charging, navigation, a rear-seat entertainment system, a 10-speaker stereo, and a Wi-Fi hot spot are all available as options.

Safety Features

As with other vehicles from Honda, you need not worry about a shortage of safety features with the 2021 Honda Pilot. No matter the trim level, you get a rearview camera, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high-beam headlights, to name a few. Available advanced safety features include LED fog lights and front and rear parking sensors. The 2021 Pilot has earned very good safety ratings from trusted safety test organizations.
