2018 Honda Pilot vs. Other SUVs
As you shop, check out some of these others crossover SUVs to see how they compare to the 2018 Honda Pilot.
- 2018 Honda Pilot vs. 2018 Toyota Highlander
Like the 2018 Pilot, the 2018 Toyota Highlander is a larger crossover SUV that comes standard with three rows of seating. Maximum seating capacity is eight passengers on all trim levels except for those with optional second-row captain's chairs, which reduce capacity to seven people. When it comes to standard features, both the 2018 Pilot and Highlander offer 18-inch wheels, a rearview camera, and 60/40-split-folding second and third rows. The 2018 Highlander does offer some additional standard equipment, including a larger 6.1-inch touchscreen interface, a windshield wiper de-icer, heated mirrors, and Toyota's Pre-Collision System. The standard engine on the 2018 Highlander (a 2.5L four-cylinder at 185 horsepower), however, is not as powerful as the Pilot's 3.5L V6 at 280 horsepower. However, the 2018 Highlander is outfitted with a 3.5L V6 at 295 horsepower on all trims except for the base LE—and all V6 trims are available with all-wheel drive as an option. - 2018 Honda Pilot vs. 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe The 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe is a slightly smaller three-row crossover SUV than the 2018 Honda Pilot, offering seating for six or seven passengers (depending on the specific trim configuration chosen). Because of its smaller profile, it offers 80 cubic feet of maximum cargo storage space, whereas the 2018 Pilot is able to offer up to 83.9 cubic feet. The 2018 Santa Fe comes with a standalone engine—a 3.3L V6 at 290 horsepower. All-wheel drive is an optional add-on with all three trim levels, and standard features on the base SE trim include automatic dual-zone climate control, smartphone integration, a seven-inch central display, and a six-speaker sound system.
- 2018 Honda Pilot vs. 2018 Chevrolet Traverse Coming off a total redesign for 2018, the Traverse is the largest three-row crossover of the 2018 Pilot's competitors. It offers a whopping 98.5 cubic feet of maximum cargo space, making it a great choice for those who prioritize seating and storage space. It is also offered in seven trim configurations, with standard features on the base L including a 4G LTE connection with on-board Wi-Fi ability, a seven-inch touchscreen interface, smartphone integration, and 18-inch wheels. A 3.6L V6 engine at 310 horsepower comes with each 2018 Traverse, and all trims except for the RS are available in all-wheel drive. The High Country trim is the only one that comes standard with all-wheel drive.
