2021 Honda Pilot Trim Levels near College Park, MD
Do you have your heart set on taking home a 2021 Honda Pilot? Then it is important to learn which of its trim levels best suits your individual needs! Read this overview, then visit Pohanka Honda in Capitol Heights to get a glimpse of the Pohanka Difference.
LX
The base trim of the 2021 Pilot is known as the LX, and it is packed with inspiring mechanics. Starting things off is the standard 3.5L V6 engine, which can pump out 280 horsepower1 and 262 lb.-ft. of torque2 when pushed to its limits. In fact, this system comes standard across all the editions of this model, so you can know you’re getting a prime offering. You’ll also have a standard Eco Assist System™ to help you save on fuel. When it comes to the interior, you’re certainly in for a treat, thanks to the Pilot’s 152.9 cubic ft. of maximum passenger space. Also, since it has 16.5 cubic ft. of cargo volume3 behind the third row of seats, you can bring along some extra gear next time you’re on Greenbelt Road.
EX & EX-L
Next up is the EX, and it makes itself known by providing LED fog lights for those hazy night drives. And with heated side mirrors, those treacherous conditions will be no match for you! It also has Smart Entry with Walk Away Auto Lock®, which makes sure you won’t have to remove your keys from your pocket. To upgrade things even further, spring for the EX-L trim level. This version of the 2021 Pilot has leather-trimmed seats for an opulent feel you’re sure to love. It also possesses a 4-way power passenger seat to truly pamper your significant other! Clearly these midsize SUVs are more than ready to accommodate you.
Special Edition & Touring
Matters only get better from here with the Special Edition of the 2021 Honda Pilot. This is the first trim to offer a standard wireless phone charger4, which easily gets your device back to full battery without cords. It is also host to 20-inch black-painted alloy wheels that put you head and shoulders over your competition. The Touring puts a premium on looks with its full LED headlights that illuminate the terrain ahead of you, as well as blue ambient lighting for the interior. Do you like staying connected on the go? Then the Wi-Fi hotspot capability in the Pilot Touring will be right up your alley!
Elite & Black Edition
The final two trims of this SUV are as luxurious as they come. First, both the Elite and Black Edition have heated and ventilated front seats, which means that you will always be able to remain comfortable despite adverse weather conditions. In addition to this, they each have an Intelligent Variable Torque Management™ AWD System that makes off-road travel a cinch with Mud, Sand, and Snow modes. Finally, they have an Advanced Rear Entertainment system to give your passengers in the back an upscale experience.
