Appearance
The 2023 Pilot displays fresh front-to rear styling as a next-generation model. Its broad dimensions are enhanced by flat, mostly smooth surfaces and a tall nose. This nose features a narrow, black bumper with molded, angled air intakes. The grille has a staggered mesh design, enhanced by the flanking, narrow headlights. These dramatic headlights sit at a slight angle and are underscored by a ribbon of LED light. The 2023 Passport has a more athletic look that displays a shorter, angled hood, black molding, and a pair of definition lines on the sides. The grille is more rectangular, and the bumper is thicker and molded. In addition, the air vents stand upright, and the larger headlights have LED accents on the tips.

While the cabin layout differs in these Honda crossovers, they have many of the same features. For example, they are available with a hands-free liftgate, leather material, wireless smartphone charging, heated front seats, a three-zone climate control system, a power moonroof, driver’s memory functions, a navigation system, a household power port, parking sensors, HondaLink, adaptive cruise control and more.
