2025 Honda Pilot Updated With Black Edition

The Honda Pilot has been promoted.

Honda has dropped the current entry-level Honda Pilot LX trim for 2025 and added a new Black Edition at the top of the lineup.

The new entry-level model is the front-wheel-drive Sport, which has a starting price of $43,395, up from $40,995, with all-wheel-drive adding $2,100. The front-wheel-drive LX was available for $38,485.

The fourth generation Pilot SUV launched in 2023 and mostly carries over into 2025 across the range, including its standard 285 hp V6 and 10-speed automatic transmission.
