	Though there are few exterior distinctions between trims, the EX and EX-L models do come equipped with a handful of features not found on the LX, such as roof rails, fog lamps, body-colored side mirrors and door handles, and a tinted rear windshield. However, its looks still remain fairly conservative, and car shoppers may find more to be excited about once they've taken a seat inside.

	The [[4WD]] model of the [[Honda Pilot]] is equipped with a 3.5L 244[[hp]] [[V6]] VTEC engine. Its 240 lb.-ft. of torque allow it to tow 4,500 lbs, not superb for its class, but not too shabby either. The 4WD itself is automatic, designed to kick in when road conditions demand it.

	As it was based on the same [[platform]] as that of the [[Honda Odyssey]], the interior of the [[Honda Pilot\|Pilot]] should prove to be surprisingly comfortable. Reviewers remark on its feeling very much like an [[Acura]], [[Honda]]'s upscale marque, with its seating and instrument panels built from sturdy, quality materials. In addition, features like the optional heated seats, steering wheel touch controls, and DVD navigation package, which also equips the Pilot with an on-screen rear view camera display, add a touch of luxury to the ride. This last feature, however, is also a bit of a drawback, as prospective buyers must choose between either the DVD [[Navigation System\|navigation]] package or the seatback [[Entertainment Center\|DVD entertainment]] package; they are not available together.

	The Pilot exhibits a clean, simple finish, from its subtle, body-colored side moldings to its alloy wheels. Its front fascia and rear styling bear a striking resemblance to its brother, the [[Honda Ridgeline]] pickup, adding a rugged element to its interior sophistication.
