Honda unveils the updated version of its pilot SUV

Japanese automaker Honda has just revealed the updated 2026 version of its popular Pilot SUV. Notable changes include a redesigned front end with a larger grille and a revised bumper. Standard roof rails are now included on all trims, along with more pronounced side sills.

Inside, the vehicle features a larger 12.3-inch navigation and infotainment screen, along with a redesigned information and instrumentation cluster that is 43% larger. Honda has also enhanced sound insulation to further reduce cabin noise.

Under the hood, few changes were made: the 285-horsepower J35 V6 with 262 lb-ft of torque returns, paired with a ten-speed automatic transmission and, of course, all-wheel drive. The electric power steering has been recalibrated for improved precision. This Honda SUV is built in Lincoln, Alabama.
