2026 Honda Pilot Red

If you’re searching for a family-sized vehicle that can comfortably transport your entire crew while remaining immensely capable, the 2026 Honda Pilot is an excellent choice. This model has undergone several revisions for 2026, including a revamp of the cabin with bold new styling and a larger infotainment system. Our Pacific Honda team has compiled this summary to tell you more about it.

Power and Performance

Whether you stick to the pavement or head to the trails, the 2026 Honda Pilot provides an incredible drive. You’ll receive a standard 3.5-liter DOHC V6 engine that produces 285 horsepower at 6,100 rpm and 262 lb-ft of torque at 5,000 rpm. It comes paired with a smooth and responsive ten-speed automatic transmission that’s been specifically tuned for the Honda Pilot.

This new Honda vehicle features the award-winning Honda i-VTM4™ all-wheel drive system as an available option, resulting in optimal traction when tackling slick road conditions or uneven trails. Up to 70% of the engine’s torque can be sent to the rear axle, while 100% of that torque can be sent to the left or right wheel as needed. There are five available drive modes to further customize your performance.

Technology Features

The cabin of the Honda Pilot has been enhanced for 2026 with a wide array of sophisticated amenities. All trim levels come equipped with a new ultra-wide 12.3-inch touchscreen that’s 37% bigger than the previous version. The 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster is also larger than last year, allowing for a more immersive driving experience. Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ come standard alongside Google capabilities, allowing you to access vehicle settings with hands-free, natural voice commands.
