In the world of crossover SUVs, two stand out above the rest: the 2024 Honda Pilot and Toyota Highlander. Both have engines strong enough and interiors comfortable enough for many Arlington Heights families, but how do they differ? If you’ve been thinking about trading in your current vehicle to upgrade to a capable crossover, you’re probably wondering which between the 2024 Toyota Highlander and Honda Pilot you should choose.

In this comparison, the team at Arlington Toyota explores the differences between the Highlander vs. Pilot to help you decide for yourself. Keep reading to learn more about these two models, then schedule a test drive at our Palatine dealership today!

Toyota Highlander vs. Honda Pilot: Performance & Efficiency

Both the Toyota Highlander and Honda Pilot have capable engines that will have no problem taking you and your passengers to Mount Prospect, Wheeling, and beyond. The 2024 Highlander features a forced-induction engine with standard turbocharging for efficient performance, while the Pilot has a naturally aspirated V6 that still doesn’t provide as much torque as the Highlander.

Plus, the Toyota Highlander offers a more efficient drive in Rolling Meadows, whether you choose the standard gasoline engine or available hybrid. The Pilot doesn’t even offer a hybrid configuration, so if you’re looking for more torque for less gas, the 2024 Toyota Highlander is the clear choice.

2024 Toyota Highlander Engines:

  • Standard Engine: 2.4L turbocharged I4
  • Hybrid Engine: 2.5L I4 hybrid engine
  • Horsepower: 243 hp–265 hp
  • Torque: 175 lb-ft–310 lb-ft
  • Fuel Economy: 22 mpg city / 29 mpg highway 
  • Hybrid Fuel Economy: 36 mpg city / 35 mpg highway

2024 Honda Pilot Engine:

  • Standard Engine: 3.5L V6
  • Hybrid Engine: Not available
  • Horsepower: 285 hp
  • Torque: 262 lb-ft
  • Fuel Economy: 19 mpg city / 27 mpg highway

Toyota Highlander vs. Honda Pilot: Dimensions

Most drivers in Schaumburg choose an SUV for their winning combination of space and power that is perfect for both commutes and family trips. Both the Highlander and Pilot have similar interior dimensions that allow everyone to stretch out, no matter the journey.

However, the Toyota Highlander is slightly smaller on the outside, which makes it easier to maneuver in tight spots. If you’re looking for a vehicle that’s both comfortable and versatile, the 2024 Toyota Highlander won’t let you down.

2024 Toyota Highlander Dimensions:

  • Exterior Wheelbase: 112.2 inches
  • Exterior Width: 76.0 inches
  • Exterior Height: 68.1 inches
  • Interior Seating Capacity: 8 passengers
  • Interior Passenger Volume: 141.8 cubic feet
  • Interior Cargo Volume Behind 1st/2nd/3rd-Row Seats: 84.3 cubic feet / 48.4 cubic feet / 16.0 cubic feet

Toyota Highlander vs. Honda Pilot: Features & Amenities

Finally, it’s important to have all the latest amenities and interior features to ensure a comfortable ride for everyone on board. Both the Highlander and Pilot provide a range of interior highlights, but we think the Toyota offers more attention to detail. Here are just a few of the amenities aboard the Toyota Highlander that you won’t find on a Honda:

  • Toyota Safety Sense™ 2.5+ technology
  • 12.3-inch center touchscreen
  • 11-speaker JBL® sound system
  • Wireless Apple CarPlay®/Android Auto™
  • 12.3-inch fully digital gauge cluster

  • And more!
