Compare 2023 vs 2022 Honda Pilot

Performance

Both the 2022 and 2023 Honda Pilot models offer excellent performance capabilities. The 2022 model has a 280-horsepower V6 gas engine paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission. The lower trims provide the option of front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, while the higher trims come with standard all-wheel drive. The 2023 model boasts a new 3.5-liter V6 engine, producing 285 horsepower, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. In addition, the Pilot TrailSport edition will feature enhanced off-road suspension, all-terrain tires, steel skid plates, and other off-road enhancements.

Appearance

The 2023 Honda Pilot has undergone complete restyling, with slightly larger dimensions. The new design features a flatter nose, a larger and more upright grille, and rectangular horizontal headlights. The lower fascia is sleek with thin linear elements and moderate air vents. The sides have a clean and smooth look, with subtle definition. The redesign results in a more powerful stance and a sportier profile. Inside, the Pilot features a redesigned interior with long, sophisticated lines, a floating central display screen, and a center console that ascends to meet the dashboard. By comparison, the 2022 Pilot has a more rounded and serene appearance.
