  • Honda Pilot Trailsport Off-Road Test - Please Note: We understand that it's not meant for hardcore off-roading and this is light off-roading, but only a few buyers would take their Pilot into such conditions! The trail mode works well, but the transmission seems to have a mind of its own. You can't lock it into a gear, and it tends to shift to 2nd when it should stay in 1st and rev hard!
    The fourth generation of the Honda Pilot, completely redesigned, is the largest and most powerful ever. This ultra-robust family SUV features an all-new style, offers more interior space, and stands out with an exceptional combination of off-road capabilities and agile on-road handling, placing the Pilot at the forefront of its class. The TrailSport model, on the other hand, is the most rugged in the Honda lineup, equipped with all-terrain tires, steel protection plates, higher ground clearance, off-road-tuned suspension, and many other features. Additionally, it is available with four accessory packages, including the very first HPD package for the Pilot.
    The new Pilot TrailSport brings even more off-road capabilities to the lineup with an adventure-tuned suspension, increased ground clearance of 25mm, tough steel protection plates to safeguard the undercarriage from trail damage, and improved all-wheel-drive capabilities. It's also the first Honda SUV equipped with all-terrain tires, providing better off-road grip. The TrailSport's 18-inch wheels feature a rugged design specially crafted to withstand the demands of the trails.
    The Pilot also features the second-generation award-winning Honda i-VTM4 torque vectoring system, standard on all versions. This enhanced i-VTM4 system includes a reinforced rear differential capable of handling 40% more torque, while providing a 30% faster response, thus optimizing traction in all driving conditions, especially on slippery surfaces and off-road. The all-new Honda Pilot promises to redefine family adventures, combining ruggedness and sophistication for unforgettable getaways.
    Test model: 2023 Honda Pilot TrailSport Diffused Sky Pearl with Black Leatherette with Orange Contrast interior $68,838.41 / $1,373.54 per month for 60 months at 7.29% for a total of $82,411.80.

    All the Pilot needs is a 2.5 inch lift and it's main weakness would be easily solved. Hopefully some company decides to take this platform on.

      I am debating hard between Honda Pilot Trailsport, and Subaru Ascent. Apart from daily commute in winter through slushy Minnesota highways, will also be making winter road trips across North American snow belts, often over unplowed country roads. Having played with both vehicles, which one would you guys recommend, with focus on snow handling, and reliability?

    I cannot believe how 90% or more of reviews of the 2024 Honda Pilot Trailsport do NOT take the vehicle off road! I mean, duh, the whole point of the design is to be a good compromise between serious off-road DUVs, such as the full time 4Wheel drive Range Rover and the part-time 4Wheel drive Toyota 4Tunner. I’be owned both to reach trailheads in the wilderness of the Sierra Nevada Mountains at high elevation, but now with grandchildren and my being tired of driving “trucks”, we wanted a 3-row SUV capable of going at least on rough roughs to get to hiking trails. After finally finding some reviews on UA-cam that focused more on the Trailsport’s competitive advantages for off-road over its competitors, is instead of harping on the size of the 9 inch video screen, purchased last month (February, 2024), a brand new Trailsport with that great blue color, and it is an excellent compromise. It’s a pleasure to drive and does very well off road, even on a few I would have given 2nd thought to in my 4Runner. The Honda AWD system is tuned to the Trailsport’s trail modes (Telluride’s is not). The Trailsport has steel skid plates. Telluride has none. I recommend you get the optional running boards (the less expensive traditional ones, not the tubular ones).. They are very functional yet don’t stick out of the SUV as far as the ones on a 4-runner because the lower doors are designed to hide half their width. I agree with another comment here: it would be ideal if the Trailsport had what my Land Rover classic Range Rover had: the ability on the fly at real low speed to raise the entire body up for an extra couple of inches of ground clearance. Of all features, probably the most critical in terms of defining limitations of off-road use is the amount of ground clearance you have. The only other thing Honda should improve upon, is to offer the option of a bench seat for the Trailsport. Oh, and also at least the front two seats should not only be heated, but should have air-conditioning going through the seat and the lower back. It’s odd not to offer that on the one trim that might spend time off-road in a desert in extreme heat. but even on easy freeway trips of long duration, cool seats are very nice to have. One comment: the third row is really very good and adults can sit back there, primarily, because if you look at the roofline of the car it’s not sloping down so much the way most of the competition does. there’s plenty of headroom in the third row. And if there is only one person there, he or she has unlimited legroom, because of the absence of a center seat on the second row, so you can stretch your legs out as if you’re flying business class.
