What's New for the 2025 Honda Pilot EX-L?
The 2025 Honda Pilot lineup introduces the Black Edition as its top-tier trim, but many drivers prefer the EX-L trim for its balance of features and affordability. While the Sport trim remains the entry-level option, the 2025 Honda Pilot EX-L offers a variety of advanced features and luxury touches not found in the base model, without the premium price tag. For 2025, the Pilot EX-L carries over unchanged, continuing to deliver a high-value midsize SUV option.
Every 2025 Honda Pilot, including the EX-L trim, is powered by a robust 285-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 engine, paired with a smooth 10-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive comes standard on the EX-L, but you can opt for all-wheel drive for enhanced control and capability on different terrains.
How Does the 2025 Honda Pilot EX-L Stand Out in Terms of Design?
The 2025 Honda Pilot boasts a commanding and modern design, characterized by its tall profile, flat hood, and sleek roofline. Its strong stance is further emphasized by sculpted sides with a prominent support column and clean, subtle creases above and below the door panels. The hexagonal grille, featuring extended honeycomb mesh, seamlessly connects with the LED headlights, giving the Pilot a confident, bold presence.
In the EX-L trim, the design is enhanced with premium touches like heated, power-adjustable side mirrors, an acoustic glass windshield for a quieter cabin, a power liftgate, LED fog lights, and stylish 20-inch alloy wheels, offering both style and substance to your daily drive.
What Features Come with the 2025 Honda Pilot EX-L?
The 2025 Honda Pilot EX-L builds on the already well-equipped Sport trim, which includes remote ignition, a touchscreen infotainment system, tri-zone climate control, heated front seats, ambient interior lighting, and advanced safety features like lane departure mitigation, adaptive cruise control, and a blind-spot monitoring system.
However, the EX-L enhances your driving experience with additional features like a larger touchscreen display, rear sunshades, two-position memory for the driver's seat, an in-car intercom system, third-row USB ports, a wireless charging pad, and a premium sound system with more speakers. You'll also enjoy leather upholstery, a power outlet in the cargo area, and wireless smartphone app connectivity, making the EX-L an exceptional choice for drivers seeking added convenience and comfort.
