Is the TrailSport the Best 2022 Honda Pilot Trim?
The Honda Pilot gets bolder with its addition of the Trailsport, the Pilot’s off-road-ready trim.
The 2022 Honda Pilot is an excellent all-around midsize SUV for all your needs. It’s powered by a solid 3.5L V-6 engine with 280 horsepower and 262 l.bs.-ft. of torque paired to a 9-speed automatic transmission. The Pilot goes bolder and more off-road capable with Honda’s introduction of the Pilot’s TrailSport trim.
2022 Honda Pilot Trim Levels
Edmunds, US News, and Cars commend the 2022 Honda Pilot for its roomy interiors, quiet cabin, comfortable driving position, quick acceleration, and good fuel economy. Honda dropped the LX and EX trims of the Pilot. The 2022 Honda Pilot now offers seven trim levels to choose from - the Sport, EX-L, Special Edition, TrailSport, Touring, Elite, and Black Edition.
The EX-L trim covers the basic features, including the sunroof, LED headlights, an 8-inch touchscreen, tri-zone automatic climate control, power-adjustable and heated front seats, and Honda’s suite of advanced safety and driver-assistive features.
The Special Edition Trim offers most of the features of the 2022 Honda Pilot with a reasonable price tag. For off-road lovers, the popular Touring trim will meet their expectations.
The Elite and Black Edition trims top the Pilot range with more luxurious features like the panoramic sunroof, heated steering wheel, second-row captain's chairs, and rain-sensing windshield wipers.
What Makes the Pilot TrailSport Stand Out?
The TrailSport produces a thrilling 280 horsepower from the new 3.5-liter turbocharged engine. Starting at $52,420 MSRP, the Pilot TrailSport is a capable family-oriented, off-road SUV that delivers all your tasks on or off the road.
It comes in different designs, including the standard Crystal Black Pearl, the Lunar Silver Metallic, and the premium options of Platinum White Pearl or Sonic Gray Pearl.
Inside the TrailSpot are premium black leather seats, a sun/moonroof, heated front seats, seat memory, and standard bucket seats. The TrailSport comes equipped with a suite of comfort features, including multi-zone AC, climate control, and heated seats for excellent passenger comfort.
It also features a keyless start, keyless entry, remote trunk release, and a universal garage door opener. TrailSport also includes adaptive cruise control, a navigation system, steering wheel audio controls, and a user-friendly 8.0-inch touchscreen display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration.
The TrailSport delivers great fuel economy of a combined city and highway ranking of 21 MPG. Drivers who are looking for an SUV that’s light on the earth will love how eco-friendly the TrailSport is. The TrailSport produces low CO2 emissions at only 15,000 miles per year, which is impressive in its class.
What makes the 2022 Honda Pilot TrailSport stand out is its stylish exterior and a higher suspension that you won’t get from the other trims. Honda provided extra suspension on this trim, 18-inch wheels, AWD, and distinct black plastic inlays around the wheel wells.
Should You Buy the Pilot TrailSport?
If you’re looking for a versatile family SUV to power your off-road adventure, the TrailSport will always deliver. However, we still recommend picking the Pilot trim that fits your budget and lifestyle.
The Special Edition pretty much has everything you’ll want from your Honda Pilot but don’t be afraid to go for the lower trims or the more upscale trims like the Limited and Platinum if they meet your requirements.
