2021 Honda Pilot SE

The 2021 Honda Pilot is a three-row SUV that seats up to eight, slotting between the CR-V and the larger Passport in Honda's lineup. It competes with the Toyota Highlander, Ford Explorer, and Kia Telluride, offering a roomier cabin than most of its peers. The V6 delivers smooth, confident acceleration for a family SUV, though the nine-speed can occasionally hesitate when shifting. The cabin is spacious and comfortable, with a third row that fits adults better than many rivals and generous cargo space behind it. The SE adds exclusive 20-inch black wheels, leather seats, a power moonroof, and a hands-free tailgate over the EX-L. Its 3.5L V6 makes 280 horsepower through a nine-speed automatic, and with four-wheel drive you get a 5,000-pound towing capacity. The SE comes with a wireless phone charger and integrated rear sunshades, nice touches for family road trips.
