Frequently Asked Questions

Every 2026 Pilot uses a 3.5-liter V-6 producing 285 hp and 262 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive are both offered depending on trim.

EPA ratings range from 19 city/27 highway/22 combined mpg on the front-wheel-drive Sport and EX-L to 18 city/23 highway/20 combined on the AWD TrailSport. Most AWD trims land at 19 city/25 highway/21 combined.

Cargo volume is 87 cu ft on most trims (Sport, EX-L, TrailSport, Touring, Touring S) and 86.5 cu ft on Elite and Black Edition, figures that reflect maximum space with rear seats folded. All trims seat 8 except TrailSport, which seats 7.

The fuel tank holds 18.5 gallons across every trim. Combined with EPA combined mpg in the low-to-mid 20s, that's good for several hundred miles of driving between fill-ups, depending on trim and driving conditions.

The Pilot's 3.5-liter V-6 makes more horsepower (285 hp) than typical 4Runner powertrains and pairs it with a 10-speed automatic versus the 4Runner's more truck-oriented setup; the Pilot also offers three-row seating for up to 8 across nearly its whole lineup. Honda doesn't publish 4Runner specs here, so buyers should confirm 4Runner figures directly with Toyota before comparing trim-for-trim.

MSRPs span from $42,395 for the Sport FWD to $55,195 for the Black Edition. Seating is 8 across most trims, dropping to 7 on the off-road-focused TrailSport due to its second-row configuration.
