2023 Honda Pilot: Every Colour In Every Trim Level
March 08 2023, Centennial Honda
The all-new, fourth-generation, 2023 Honda Pilot is on sale now in five different trim levels and seven different colours for 22 distinct configurations. Every 2023 Pilot is a three-row SUV with standard all-wheel drive, a 285-horsepower engine, and the Honda Sensing suite of advanced safety technology.
SPORT
The 2023 Pilot lineup kicks off with the Pilot Sport. You'll know it from the 20-inch alloys, black front grille, black roof rails (the EX-L goes without), and gloss black mirrors. The list of standard features is a long one; key premium elements include heated front seats and steering wheel, power tailgate, remote start, proximity access/pushbutton start, tri-zone automatic climate control, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, and a 10-way power driver's seat.
The 2023 Honda Pilot Sport is available in Crystal Black, Lunar Silver, Platinum White, or Radiant Red.
EX-L
L stands for leather in the Pilot EX-L, but that's not the only upgrade when you move up from the Sport to the EX-L. The Sport's 20-inch alloys are swapped out for 18-inch rims – you'll also know the EX-L by its chrome grille and body-coloured mirrors (with memory-linked with reverse auto tilt-down.) The EX-L also adds an acoustic windshield, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, front and rear parking sensors, CabinTalk in-car PA, HomeLink, integrated second-row sunshades, wireless charging, memory settings for the driver's seat, heated second-row seats, 9-speaker audio, a 9-inch centre screen, wireless Android Auto, and SiriusXM compatibility.
The 2023 Honda Pilot EX-L is available in Crystal Black, Platinum White, Radiant Red, or Steel Grey.
TRAILSPORT
The TrailSport is the most rugged member of the 2023 Pilot lineup with an off-road tuned suspension, 25mm of extra ground clearance, steel skid plates, and all-terrain tires on TrailSport-exclusive 18-inch wheels. The TrailSport also uses the Sport's black grille and gloss black mirrors while also pairing those with gloss black door handles. There's a standard trailer hitch receiver, too.
The TrailSport does offer a distinct interior layout for seven-passenger capacity with second-row captain's chairs and a panoramic sunroof, but broadly speaking the TrailSport mirrors the EX-L's equipment levels.
The 2023 Honda Pilot TrailSport offers the broadest availablity of colours in the lineup: Crystal Black, Platinum White, Radiant Red, Steel Grey, Diffused Sky, and Sonic Grey.
TOURING
Moving up to the Touring restores 20-inch alloys to the Pilot along with a chrome grille and body-coloured mirrors, but the bulk of the upgrades at this stage of the lineup are comfort and convenience-related: rain-sensing wipers, power-folding side mirrors, acoustic front door glass, 10.2-inch gauge cluster, navigation, head-up display, multi-view camera with front and rear camera washers, removable second-row middle seat, ventilated front seats, 12-speaker Bose audio, and WiFi hotspotting.
The 2023 Honda Pilot Touring is available with the same colour palette as the EX-L: Crystal Black, Platinum White, Radiant Red, or Steel Grey.
BLACK EDITION
At the top of the 2023 Pilot lineup, the Black Edition runs on specific black 20-inch alloys and wears a gloss black grille and gloss black mirrors. There are Black Edition floor mats, but other than that, the Black Edition operates with the Touring's top-level luxury equipment levels.
The 2023 Honda Pilot Black Edition is available in Crystal Black, Platinum White, Radiant Red, and Sonic Grey.
