Don’t forget to subscribe I’d really appreciate it.
I just bought an EX-L today and the middle seat can be removed
@@maricelarodz9425 Nice.. Is it easily removable?
46,000.00 PLUS your added value, unwanted options and other dealer added costs?
Smooth presentation, keep up the good work, I subscribed!
Thank you buddy, really appreciated.
Solid review and funny - easy subscribe.
Much appreciated! Thanks for the sub!
I will get this over the highlander for one obvious reason, V6
Something tells me a lot of people will.
Totally agree...V6 Is power!
Direct Injection. Change the oil every 5k miles or once a year. If you can afford it change it every 6 months no matter the mileage. Drive it hard on the highway for at least an hour once a month. This is to help prevent carbon build up if you plan on keeping it for many years. Top Quality gas like Exxon Connoco etc
@@ceciliaabdalla4954there’s this injector additive you can add every 5k miles you don’t need to do all that if you get it.
This redesign is much better than the previous iteration. The EX-L shown is also equipped with about everything you’d ever need, but they stopped the sunroof which is my one gripe with it. I could likely get over it though
Completely agree! I currently have a sunroof on my car and honestly, I can’t remember when I last used it. I don’t think it’s a deal breaker for most people.
wish they offer an EX, i like cloth better
@@tinhinnhLX is the old EX, everything is electric on the LX now
Good review!!!
Thank you, appreciate it!!!
I read that the middle seat does come out in the ex-l. You have to disconnect the seatbelt warning cable and that’s it.
Door panels review. Thanks!
I notice that the interior lights are very dim, which really surprised me. Is there a way to brighten it?
The Sienna looks so good that if Toyota put a 6 cylinder in that or the engine in the hybrid max in that i will be getting one as a honda fan boy
Well done presentation
Thank you, really appreciate it.
Good review. Also just show window stickers for few seconds in your reviews. 👌
Will do buddy. I normally do, but honestly this window sticker was impossible to take a picture of due to reflections and tinted window of the second row.
Wolume button is goog!
Can you access the third row if you have car seats 3 across? My Atlas has a function that tilts the whole seat while the car seats are installed to enter the third row.
Yeah no the Atlas seems like the only one in this class that does that. This one won’t hold a car seat in place while it moves forward because the back rest tilts forward while the seat bottom just slides forward. In the Atlas the whole seat kind of tilts forward including the seat bottom.
Is there a difference between Pilot and Pilot Elite?
hello, mom of 2 currently driving a Mazda 3. I've been looking in the market for a 3 row suv and I like the EXL model. On Honda's site when you look at the trims it says that the EXL model has the moveable center console. Does this mean it's only on some select EXL models?
Hello there,
If you mean the removable middle seat in the second row then according to some of the pilot EX-L owners in the comments, the middle seat is removable. Though it’s not obvious, remove some hidden latch and the seat belt light connector from below the seat. And you should be good.
@@automaticYT Okay thank you so much! Great review btw. Going to test drive this tomorrow.
Is the 2nd row middle seat truely not removeable? I know know the higher trims are quick release, but is the EX-L seat bolted or welded on there?
Correct it is fixed in place. I suppose if you remove enough screws (which might not be easy at all), then you might be able to remove it. But it is certainly not removable like the top trim with a one latch release system.
The members at Piloteers forumn confirmed the middle seat can be removed from the Sport and EX-L on the 23 Pilot. It looks like there is a wire under the middle seat you can pull and the seat will come out. I have yet to try it on my 23 EXL model.
@@gunblade3448 Very interesting indeed. That's good to hear. Honda certainly doesn't want you to know.
The EXL model seat is removable I removed mine only thing is the wire you have to tuck doesn’t ruin anything if unplugged
dont know why its not standard for all the trims
✅
Are all the models the same size? Some models look smaller
All model dimensions are the same.
@@automaticYT thank you
Honestly when I look at them some do appear bigger.
46,000.00 PLUS your unwanted options, added value sticker costs and miscellaneous costs?
Look at this 1st generation V6 Honda designed, mated for the first time to a 3 year old transmission. Talk about projected reliability...sarcasm intensifies
What about those fake exhaust tips?? They’re NOT functional and not connected!!
2023 and it still has a 9 inch screen? come on honda even accord has a 12 inch
I believe the Touring and Elite trims have a larger screen.
nope..
IT'S NOT A MINIVAN
Hybrid/Electrification is the future. Toyota is going to come out with the Grand Highlander that's going to get almost double the MPG of this outdated rubber timing belt no VTEC V6 engine.
Some prefer the v6 but I’m going for Toyota
While I do prefer the hybrids, and kind of agree with your point. I think the way Toyota reports their performance numbers is misleading. For ex. The highlander hybrid I think has 240 or so HP. But that’s not the full story, 50 or 60 of that is the electric motor HP. Same for the torque figures. And the electric motor doesn’t work on freeway speeds, so effectively you only have about 190 or so HP when driving on the freeway. Which for most people may be enough, but when you want to pass someone you need more HP. All the current 4 cyl will do is rev for like 3 seconds and then you get some power. Which at freeway speeds will almost definitely piss off people behind you because you can’t merge at the speed everyone else is going.
Electric cars are for pretentious fools.
@@automaticYTthat’s good to know. They also fudge their cargo numbers, regular Highlander supposedly has the same cargo as this which you can look for one second and see it’s smaller.
Why doesn't the exl have or offer 360 cameras and ventilated seats smh,honda took so long to redesign the pilot but it still doesn't touch the telluride or the palisade,those even offer heated seats on the 3 row and that camera blind spot is the best,I'm done with honda,no 12 inch screen,cmon honda even the jeep wagoneer or jeep cherokee L is better than this,only way I get this if they lease for real cheap
While I do agree with you on your points, but ultimately I think the pilot is a much more dependable and reliable car then the telluride or the palisade. Sure it comes at the cost of the interior features like you mentioned. But honestly I would rather have a peace of mind then a few extra interior features. As cars are getting more technologically advanced the maintenance of these cars are getting super expensive, so if you can find a good balance between tech and simple old school then it will go a long way towards making your life easier in the long term ownership of the vehicle.
Kia/Hyundai and Jeep are unreliable trash.
Honda Pilot looking like a Dodge Durango.
I honestly thought that too when I first saw the side profile. Especially after the c pillar.
And the tail lights look a like ones on Subaru Ascend
@@MaximumDIYGarage😂 yes it does
@@automaticYTits angled up too much, looks better in darker colors
I’m glad cause I love the Durango look but hate Dodge. Win for me lol.
Overpriced for what your getting.
Those wheels are ugly AF !!
Sure honda is reliable but that interior is giving me anxiety attacks !!
What a bland and boring design
😑😑😑😑
To each their own buddy, it’s just an opinion.
Kia and hiundai interior look good but engine and trans are junk and old engine. Spec component. Some people buy car for a screen . I pay for reability and safety .
@@titomartinez7185 kia/Hyundai are the pile of junk
