Pros	Cons	What's New
The 3.5-liter V6 engine delivers smooth and consistent performance, providing 285 horsepower and a towing capacity of up to 5,000 pounds when properly equipped.	Fuel economy for the V6 engine averages 19 mpg city and 27 mpg highway, which lags behind hybrid competitors like the Toyota Highlander Hybrid.	The Black Edition trim debuts as the top-tier option, featuring gloss-black 20-inch wheels, black leather seats with red stitching, and exclusive badging for a sportier, premium appearance.
The new Black Edition trim adds an upscale touch with blacked-out exterior details, black leather upholstery, and red interior accents, appealing to buyers seeking premium aesthetics.	The lack of electrified or hybrid options limits the Pilot's appeal to eco-conscious buyers.	Updated infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is now standard across the lineup, while higher trims receive a 10.2-inch digital driver display.
Honda Sensing safety suite is standard across all trims, including adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and Traffic Jam Assist for easier highway driving.		Honda Sensing now includes additional features like Low-Speed Braking Control and Traffic Jam Assist, improving safety and convenience.
