The 2025 Honda Pilot has great road manners, lots of cargo space, and an all-around sensible design. It’s packed full of family-friendly features that are excellent for regular journeys, recreational activities, and even off-roading depending on the trim.
Key Features That Make the 2025 Honda Pilot a Family Favorite
1. The Towing Ability
All-wheel-drive models of the Pilot can tow up to 5,000 pounds, making them great for taking lots of gear with you on family adventures. If you prefer two-wheel drive models but still need some towing ability, then don’t worry: two-wheel-drive Pilot models can still haul a good amount of weight. Its maximum two-wheel-drive towing capacity is 3,500 pounds.
2. The Driver Assistance Features
The Pilot is stuffed with active and passive safety features. It also has Honda Sensing Technologies that aim to help you avoid collisions and become aware of when one may occur.
The features essentially act like a co-pilot that can warn you about potential head-on collisions, accidental lane departure, cars in your blind spot, and more. It even has a Driver Attention Monitor that notifies you when you’re not giving your full attention to the road.
3. Flexible Cargo Space to Fit Your Family’s Needs
Got lots of cargo to transport? That’s no problem for the Pilot. Folding down the second and third rows gives you 87 to 111.8 cubic feet of space to fill up with your cargo. If the second row is up but the third row is folded down, then you can fit 48.5 to 59.5 cubic feet worth of cargo in the cabin. The cargo area behind the third row holds 18.6 to 21.8 cubic feet of items that you need to transport.
4. The Available In-Car PA System
The EX-L and above have CabinTalk, which is a PA system in your vehicle. The front seat occupants can use it to easily speak to the rear seat passengers without having to talk loudly over road noise, the passengers chatting, or other sounds that may make it harder to hear everyone clearly.
Whatever is playing through the car’s speakers is automatically muted when you use the HandsFreeLink system microphone to talk to your passengers. The previous audio that was playing through the speakers resumes once you finish using the PA system.
5. The 7-Mode Drive System
The Pilot is prepared for every driving situation thanks to its driving modes. There are up to seven in total depending on the trim. The modes are Normal, Tow, Sand, Snow, Trail, Sport, and ECON. Each mode has a unique icon that you can view on your digital instrument cluster. Your vehicle changes its driving characteristics depending on the selected mode. That makes taking your family out for a ride in the snow or on the trail safer and more comfortable.
