The 2026 Honda Pilot is already available for ordering in the United States at a $2,040 premium over the pre-facelift version. The six trims and the naturally aspirated V6 stay the same.
On the exterior side of things, the new Pilot looks unchanged except for a new radiator grille and a subtly tweaked front bumper. It is now available in a few new colors, but that’s it. Inside, the digital dashboard is now sized 10.2 inches as standard, and the infotainment screen has grown from its usual 9 to 12.3 inches of diagonal size.
Trim options include a powered tailgate, a three-zone HVAC, vented front seats and the Honda Sensing ADAS suite. Going for one of the top trim levels unlocks window and steering wheel heating, a panoramic sunroof, surround view cameras and rugged body kit elements.
The old 3.5-liter non-turbo V6 continues to churn out its normal 289 PS (285 hp / 213 kW) onto a 10-speed automatic transmission. Honda points out improved electronic power steering and noise insulation, but that’s about all for the technical novelties.
As usual, there are six Pilot variants to choose from – Sport (base), EX-L (middle-ground) and four high-end options named TrailSport, Touring, Elite, and Black. Going for the top trim will set you back $56,490.
