About This Vehicle
The Honda Pilot TrailSport is the cargo king of the family SUV segment. With a class-best 109.2 cubic feet of maximum cargo space and 9 total USB ports distributed across all three rows, it is the vehicle that wins on spreadsheets and on actual road trips.
The TrailSport trim adds proper off-road capability — skid plates, all-terrain tires, and i-VTM4 torque-vectoring AWD — without sacrificing the family-friendly interior that made the Pilot famous. Honda Sensing comes standard. The rear-seat entertainment system keeps the peace. And the magic-seat floor in the cargo area makes grocery runs genuinely easy.
