Advertising Feature: This article is from a special section that was not produced by the newsroom.

Honda has rolled out the redesigned fourth-generation Pilot for 2023, making it the largest and most-powerful SUV ever in the automaker’s lineup.
Not only has the three-row Pilot been restyled and upgraded, it now comes in a rugged new off-road version called the TrailSport ($48,700 plus $1,345 freight), which has been engineered for extreme trail driving.
For 2023, there are six overall trim levels of the Pilot, but broken down into 12 total variations, including front- and all-wheel-drive models. All-wheel drive adds $2,100 to the base prices of all but the TrailSport and top-of-the line Elite ($52,380), which come only with all-wheel drive.
The lineup begins with the base LX ($36,300, 2WD; $38,400, AWD), followed by the Sport ($39,500, 2WD; $41,600, AWD); EX-L ($42,300, 2WD; $44,400, AWD); EX-L with middle-row dual captain’s chairs ($42,600, 2WD; $44,700, AWD); Touring ($46,800, 2WD; $48,900, AWD); TrailSport; and Elite.

Besides the rugged exterior styling, the Pilot also is roomier for people and cargo, and has an upscale cabin with premium materials that give it a luxury-vehicle feel.
The TrailSport is differentiated by standard all-terrain tires, steel skid plates, higher ground clearance, an off-road-tuned suspension and more.
Other new Pilot features include a large upright grille, a powerful stance with flared fenders, a wider track, and larger tires. 
Under the hood on all models is Honda’s new dual-overhead-cam, 3.5-liter V-6 engine, rated at 285 horsepower and 262 foot-pounds of torque – the most-powerful Honda V-6 ever.

The engine is connected to a 10-speed automatic transmission that has paddle shifters for manual control.
