When you’re on the hunt for an SUV that can easily get you all around the Saco, Portland, and Scarborough, ME, area, there’s a good chance you’re considering a Honda Pilot. After all, they are known for their impressive performance, technology, and safety features.
Here at IRA Honda Saco, we’re dedicated to helping our drivers through their car-buying journeys, and we know that starts right here with the research process. To make it as simple as possible, we created this handy breakdown of the 2022 Honda Pilot. Now, let’s see if this is the right choice for you!

To get started, we’ll head right under the hood and check out what powers the Pilot.
The standard V6 engine puts out a whopping 280 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque capability. This is paired with the 9-Speed Automatic Transmission (9AT) with Shift-By-Wire (SBW) and Paddle Shifters for an exceptionally smooth and easy-to-handle ride.
We know just how snowy those New England winters get, so be sure to ask about the available Intelligent Variable Torque Management™ (i-VTM4®) AWD System for advanced traction and stability control.
SUVs are known for their spacious interior cabins, so next, we’ll hop inside and check out just how much room you’ll get.
You’ll be able to comfortably fit up to eight passengers within the 152.9 cubic feet of passenger volume.

18.5 cubic ft. |

With up to 109 cubic ft. of potential storage room, you’ll have no problem transporting luggage, sporting equipment, or even furniture.

You’ll also want to be sure your SUV comes equipped with a plethora of driver-assistant safety features designed to act as a second set of eyes on the road ahead. Luckily the standard Honda Sensing® safety suite includes six of them:
You’ll be able to avoid potential accidents with the help of the Collision Mitigation Braking System™, as it will monitor the vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians traveling ahead of you and apply braking pressure when it senses you rapidly approaching.
The Adaptive Cruise Control feature is ideal for highway drivers because it will help you stay a safe distance behind other vehicles by slowing down or speeding up your Pilot, depending on the flow of traffic.
