The all-new Honda Pilot is way more interesting inside and out.

hit the scene, the three-row SUV market was effectively turned upside down. Families suddenly wanted something hipper, cooler, edgier.

Thanks to the Pilot's wheelbase expanding by 2.8 inches , the interior is more spacious than before. As a result, the second row offers plenty of head- and legroom for adults of any size , and although the third row remains cozy for three adults, it offers decent legroom for those up to 6 feet tall . Ingress and egress are easy—press and briefly hold a button on the second row, and the seats will slide forward to leave plenty of room to enter or exit.

On the tech front, LX and Sport models get a 7.0-inch touchscreen, while EX-L, Touring, TrailSport, and Elite models get a 9.0-inch display. Those with the bigger screen come with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, but those with the small display need to use a cord. Honda says the infotainment system has been redesigned in an effort to simplify the menus, but we'll defer our full judgment on it until we get to spend more time with it.

After driving a 2022 and a 2023 Pilot back to back, we can say the steering is softer in the new model. Although it's still precise and well-balanced, don't expect a lot of feedback. During our drive around Sedona's highways, we were impressed with how quiet the Elite model is and found its ride settled and pleasant.
