Did Honda just give us an early present for the holiday season? It sure feels like the anticipation for the new 2023 Honda Pilot is similar to a child awaiting their first present of the holiday season. Sometime next month, we finally get to take the wrapping off and play with this new Honda three-row SUV. Let’s see what it brings to the table.
Why should we get excited by the new 2023 Honda Pilot?

Honda finally delivers the next generation of its three-row SUV. This new Pilot has more passenger and cargo room than any before it. We’ve heard a lot about the new TrailSport trim, which offers impressive off-road qualities, but that’s not where the new Pilot ends.
We’ll see five trim levels of the Honda Pilot SUV when it goes on sale next month. These trims are:
- Sport
- EX-L
- TrailSport
- Touring
- Elite
Does this three-row SUV have more horsepower than before?
Yes, although we’ll still see the venerable 3.5-liter V6 engine under the new, longer hood of the Pilot, it has more power than ever. This new Honda SUV delivers 285 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. This improved engine mates perfectly with a refined and responsive 10-speed automatic transmission giving this three-row SUV a smooth and comfortable drive.
