Performance

The Honda Pilot is the adventurous driver's loyal companion, ready to go anywhere and tackle any challenge. Honda designed the 2025 model with features that help you stay in command, no matter what paths you plan on traveling. Should you need to tow a camper, trailer, boat or other vessel to complement your adventures, you'll like that the 2025 Pilot is ready to tow up to 5,000 lbs. That solid towing power should let you bring whatever you need to raise the fun factor of any excursion.

Ready to Tackle a Variety of Terrains

Regardless of weather or environment, the Honda Pilot will keep you in command in all conditions thanks to its six available drive modes. There's ECON mode to conserve fuel (good for city driving), Normal mode, best for everyday driving, and Sport mode for more spirited performance. Then, there's Snow mode to get you excellent traction on slippery roads, Trail & Sand mode for command on bumpy, uneven paths, and Tow mode to optimize handling and dynamics when trailering. It's hard to imagine a terrain that the 2025 Honda Pilot isn't ready to tackle.

Drivers will also enjoy the available i-VTM4 AWD system. This smart system senses when a rear wheel loses traction, sending extra power to the one still making good contact with the ground to compensate. Whether you drive over uneven paths or take corners fast, you'll feel more confident knowing that the i-VTM4 system is working to keep your vehicle connected to the ground.

Hill Descent Control

The Honda Pilot is, put simply, a lot of vehicle, but you'll always feel in control of its hefty frame with the Hill Descent Control feature. It prevents the vehicle from increasing in unwanted speed when going downhill, so you can handle slopes with ease and control. Plus, the independent suspension improves handling and smoothness in all conditions--uphill, downhill, or on flat surfaces.

The TrailSport Trim

We can't discuss the 2025 Pilot's performance without talking about the increasingly popular TrailSport trim. It's designed for some light off-road environments and adventure enthusiasts. This trim gets you nearly a full additional inch of ground clearance so that you can clear those small boulders and branches with ease. It also gets steel skid plates over the engine and gas tanks for times you cover rougher surfaces. Explore more, with confidence, in the performance-oriented 2025 Honda Pilot.

Comfort/Technology

You'll always feel connected and supported in the 2025 Honda Pilot, thanks to tons of great comfort and technology features throughout the cabin. Whether you need to keep a big group of kids or adult passengers content on long drives or you want a vehicle that will keep you comfortable at the wheel, the 2025 Pilot is ready to meet your needs.

Seating and Climate Features

Let's start with driver comfort. The driver will enjoy an available 10-way power adjustable seat, giving you nearly countless seat angle and height combinations to get you into that perfect comfortable position. Plus, with the available two-position memory, the vehicle will recall those settings you worked so hard to find--even if another driver changes them. There is also a memory function for the side mirrors, so these will also reset to your preferred positions, even if someone moves them.

Standard front-seat heating and available second-row outboard heating should also keep you and your passengers cozy on cold days. The available Tri-Zone Automatic Climate Control can help with that, too. It gives all three rows of passengers control over their respective temperatures. Plus, the 2025 Honda Pilot has a Humidity Control system to keep the cabin air from getting too moist or too dry and an Air Filtration system to keep everyone breathing easily. Even if you don't want to let outside air in, you can enjoy the outside sights with the available One-Touch Power Panoramic Moonroof.

Connectivity

On the technology front, the 2025 Pilot does not disappoint. Drivers can connect their Apple or Android smartphone to the available 9-inch color touchscreen, giving them the power to control all their favorite apps right there in the cabin. Additionally, an available 10.2-inch Driver Information Interface screen shows important vehicle and journey stats so you can know when it's time to care for your vehicle or pull over and take a break.

Honda Sensing

In addition to Honda's standard and generous suite of driver assist features, Honda Sensing, which has useful tools like a Collision Mitigation Braking System, a Lane Keeping Assist System, and Adaptive Cruise Control, the Pilot also has speed-sensitive volume. This system automatically lowers the vehicle's volume in low-speed settings to help you focus when handling tricky parking jobs.

Cargo/Convenience

Get ready for the ultimate in cargo space and convenience with the 2025 Pilot. It's packed with features that make it easy for you and your passengers to take the things you need on the road. Let's start with the available 111.8 cu.ft. of cargo space. You'll unlock this by folding down the second and third rows of seats. When you make a spontaneous stop at a yard sale and find a cute coffee table or a grocery trip gets bigger than planned, you can make room for your bulky items with the rear seats down.

Power Tailgate

When it's time to access your cargo, the available programmable power tailgate will come in handy. You can decide how high it opens, so if you park in an enclosed area like a garage or carport, you can keep the trunk door from scraping the ceiling. Plus, you don't need your hands to open it. If you have the keys in your pocket, just make a kicking motion beneath the bumper and the trunk will automatically open. Have some thirsty passengers? Not a problem. There are a total of 14 beverage holders throughout the Pilot's cabin. For times you need more cargo space and less passenger space, some trims have an available removable middle seat that can be folded and stored in the trunk area.

CabinTalk

Want to communicate with rear-seat passengers? The CabinTalk in-car PA system will be a huge hit. It lets you speak to the rear seat passengers through the vehicle's speakers, so you don't have to raise your voice to reach them. While this is technically a technology feature, there's no denying that parents wanting to ask third-row kids to get back to their homework will find it a major convenience.
