A COMPARISON: CHEVY TRAVERSE VS HONDA PILOT

Dyer Chevrolet Fort Pierce in Fort Pierce FL

Let’s compare the grand performance of a new Chevrolet Traverse to the added room in the Honda Pilot. Both of these SUVs offer tons of reliability, plenty of seating options and reasonable price tags. However, only one is the winner.

The experts at Dyer Chevrolet Fort Pierce analyzed both vehicles in order to provide you with an in-depth review. Without further ado, here is our opinion on the Traverse vs. the Pilot.

THE ULTIMATE POWER

The updated Honda Pilot is a vehicle that is both reliable and powerful, but so is the Traverse. However, we’re not going to say that Honda’s design doesn’t offer its own set of benefits, because it does. The Pilot features a 6-speed automatic transmission, as well as a standard (but optional) Z5 9-speed automatic transmission.

So, where does it fall short?

The new Honda Pilot offers Honda Sensing technology and performance ratings that are competitive, just not good enough to beat the new Traverse. Let’s see a breakdown of their performance below:

PERFORMANCE

2019 Chevrolet Traverse

3.6 L V6 engine
1,500 to 5,000 lbs towing capacity
310 horsepower
266 lb-ft torque

2019 Honda Pilot

3,500 lbs towing capacity
3.5L V6 engine
280 hp

The new Traverse outranks the Pilot in horsepower and towing capacity. Unlike other competitors, the Honda Pilot doesn’t even offer another engine option to rival the Traverse. In short: the Traverse offers upfront satisfaction for motorists. With the new Pilot, motorists get less for their money.

OVERALL SAFETY

Whether you’re looking at these SUVs or you’re comparing the Chevy Blazer vs. the Jeep Grand Cherokee, you’ll need to examine the safety features.
