vs 2022 Honda Pilot in Hopkinsville, KY

When you take command of the new 2022 Toyota Highlander, you’ll be ready to conquer any road ahead. This SUV offers an elevated view, impressive capability, innovative safety features and roomy second- and third-row seating that will give your passengers plenty of room to get comfortable. Its convenient features include an available height-adjustable, hands-free power liftgate with jam protection, designed to protect little hands from getting shut in the door accidentally. Inside the cabin, passengers can enjoy a view of the skies above through an available panoramic glass roof (complete with sunshade, for days when the sun’s rays are a little too bright). And when you need to speak to those sitting in the third row, there’s no need to yell — just use the available Driver Easy Speak system to communicate with ease. Beyond convenience, your Highlander will provide you with the relaxation you need after a stressful day, thanks to the available leather-trimmed, heated and ventilated driver’s seat.

The 2022 Toyota Highlander has already won over plenty of critics and customers alike, but how does it compare to its rival, the 2022 Honda Pilot? Let’s compare the two and see which one comes out on top.

It was a close competition, but at the end of the day, the 2022 Toyota Highlander is the true champion here. While both SUVs offer branded all-wheel drive and safety systems, the similarities end there. The Highlander offers far more standard drive modes (including Sport, Eco, Normal and Snow), even on its front-wheel drive models. In comparison, the Honda Pilot Sport only has snow mode — you’d have to upgrade to higher (and more expensive) trims to get two additional drive modes. Need towing power from your SUV? Don’t pick the Pilot, as its base model can only tow a maximum of 3,500 pounds.2 The Toyota Highlander is a better choice, as its base model can tow an impressive 5,000 pounds1 — rivaling some small pickup trucks. And in terms of technology, the Highlander is superior, since it offers a larger touchscreen than the Pilot does, along with an available 10-inch Head-Up Display (which isn’t even an option for the Pilot).

In our opinion, the difference is clear — especially if driving a hybrid is a priority for you, since only the Highlander offers a hybrid option. Ready to upgrade? Visit Toyota of Hopkinsville today to choose your very own 2022 Toyota Highlander.

1Before towing, confirm your vehicle and trailer are compatible, hooked up and loaded properly and that you have any necessary additional equipment. Do not exceed any Weight Ratings and follow all instructions in your Owner’s Manual. The maximum you can tow depends on base curb weight plus the total weight of any cargo, occupants, and added vehicle equipment. “Added vehicle equipment” includes additional standard/optional equipment and accessories added by the manufacturer, dealers, and/or vehicle owners. The only way to be certain of your vehicle’s exact curb weight is to weigh your vehicle without passengers or cargo. [Calculated with the new SAE J2807 method.] Installation of a tow hitch receiver or other accessories located near the rear bumper or side-door kick sensors may require disabling or removing the kick sensor, and the sensor operation setting in your vehicle should be turned off. See Owner’s Manual for limitations.

2Maximum towing capacity for AWD trims is 5,000 lbs. Maximum towing capacity for 2WD trims is 3,500 lbs. Towing requires accessory towing equipment. Please see your Honda dealer for details.
