Exterior and Interior Changes

The set of spy photos that we have on our hands show updated Pilot under tests, with its nose covered up in dark camouflage. We are not sure to what extent does Honda plans to alter 2024 Pilot compared to today’s model, but looking at the camo, they are focused on the front fascia. The grille, headlights, and bumper are most likely going to be replaced. Same can be said for the taillights. According to sources close to the Minato-based company, they are looking to make 2024 Honda Pilot similar to Honda Accord regarding exterior design.

The option which will be added for 2024 MY is a plug-in hybrid similar to what Honda Odyssey has. The electric motor powertrains will be the same ones that come with Honda Accord.
