Other SUVs to Consider
The Chevrolet Traverse is a good alternative to the Pilot because of its solid reliability rating and excellent cargo space. Reviewers think the Traverse is a good all-around SUV with a comfortable interior and car-like handling. It also has excellent safety scores.
If you want a capable commuter SUV that can also go off-road, the Jeep Grand Cherokee is worth a look. The Grand Cherokee has legendary off-road performance and reviewers say its interior is comfortable no matter if you’re on the highway or climbing steep mountains. The Grand Cherokee has a comparable reliability rating, but has lower fuel economy than the Pilot and only seats five.

Reviews 2013 Honda Pilot
The Honda Pilot comes equipped with a V6 engine and a five-speed automatic transmission on all trims. Front-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is available. The Pilot isn’t the most powerful in the class, but critics think its power is adequate in most circumstances. Auto critics think the Pilot’s handling is decent for the class, but they say it’s harder to maneuver in city driving compared to other midsize SUVs, and has squishy brakes. The Pilot has good fuel economy estimates for the class, with 18/25 mpg city/highway with front-wheel drive.
Critics are largely disappointed with the Pilot’s interior fit and finish and note that the cabin has too much hard plastic to be considered attractive. While a few critics think the interior is bland, some like the basic look, which they say helps keep the Pilot’s controls and gauges intuitive, even when equipped with the optional navigation system. The Pilot seats eight, and test drivers praise the first- and second-row seats, saying they are supportive and comfortable. The third row gets mixed reviews. Some say it is adult-friendly, while others feel that the seats should be left to kids. Standard features include Bluetooth, a backup camera and a touch-screen infotainment system. Notable optional features include navigation, an upgraded stereo system, satellite radio and a power liftgate.
