New Honda Pilot for Sale near Monterey, CA
The 2026 Honda Pilot returns with a brawny new look.
While it has a more truck-like presence, the 2026 Honda Pilot remains fundamentally the same as before—and that's a good thing. It's the automaker's midsize three-row crossover SUV, competing against family-focused models such as the Toyota Highlander and the Ford Explorer.
Verdict: Clever features help the Pilot stand out from other three-row SUVs. Our only major complaint is the lack of a more fuel-efficient model.

What people say
Elite trim has it all, but I couldnt stand the shiny chrome shining all over my car, so I went with black edition. BTW, seats look gorgeous.
Car is great all the features I need. Only downside is the size of the dash screen.
Best Bang for your Buck. A/T tires are very quiet , couldn’t tell the difference between the Touring AWD.
Would have given it 5 stars but when I find after the fact that I spend 50k+ for a car that has a tow hitch but Honda can’t put in a wiring harness for it and I have to spend more money on that is disappointing, I test drove other vehicles that came with the harness and where cheaper. Gets me wondering what else did they go cheaper on. I enjoy it so far the car is great so far but that is just a thorn in my side.
The pilot has a lackluster but dependable engine, clunky handling, subpar acceleration, ugly rear fascia, and the black edition seats come with a “red” stitching that is more like pink, along which does not equate to a 55k price tag.
