Shopping for a roomy and well-equipped family vehicle? The 2020 Honda Pilot and 2020 Honda Odyssey are both solid choices, and with either one you’ll enjoy V6 power, advanced safety features, and a versatile interior. Find out which one will suit you best in this Honda Pilot vs. Honda Odyssey comparison from Honda of Watertown.
While the Pilot is one of the most family-friendly Honda SUVs, and the Odyssey is a smart and spacious minivan, either one can provide the acceleration required to get up to speed in a hurry on I-84. Both the entry-level Pilot LX 2WD and Odyssey LX are powered by a 3.5L Direct-Injected, i-VTEC® V6 engine that delivers 280 hp and 262 lb-ft with a 19.5-gallon fuel tank capacity.
The Odyssey minivan is equipped with a 10-speed automatic transmission with Shift-By-Wire and Paddle Shifters across all trim levels, while the Honda Pilot SUV comes standard with a 6-speed automatic transmission. If you choose one of the upper Pilot trim levels such as the Touring, Elite, or Black Edition, you’ll get a 9-speed automatic transmission with Shift-By-Wire and Paddle Shifters. In addition, all Honda Pilot configurations are available with Intelligent Variable Torque Management™ All-Wheel Drive as an upgrade to 2WD. The Honda AWD system can provide the traction and control you need on Southbury-area roads, especially during the winter months.
