Visit Honda at Overland Expo East for the opportunity to drive the Honda Pilot TrailSport SUV and Ridgeline TrailSport truck. The track will highlight the Pilot and Ridgeline’s off-road capabilities that exceed the needs of most light-truck buyers.

2025 Ridgeline TrailSport

Ridgeline TrailSport brings even more off-road capability to the Ridgeline lineup. Exclusive rugged hardware includes a new off-road tuned suspension that improves articulation and off-road ride quality without sacrificing Ridgeline’s exceptional on-road comfort and best-in-class handling with a 280-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 engine, 9-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters and award-winning torque-vectoring i-VTM4 all-wheel drive.

The TrailSport also adds a steel underbody protection that shields its oil pan from sharp rocks and other off-road hazards, as well as Ridgeline’s first-ever application of all-terrain tires which take its rugged capabilities even further. Standard General Grabber A/T Sport tires substantially improve TrailSport’s traction in dirt, sand, mud, rocky terrain and snow, but remain quiet and comfortable on the road.

2025 Pilot TrailSport

Pilot TrailSport brings even more off-road capability to the Pilot lineup. Exclusive rugged hardware includes an off-road-tuned suspension with an additional inch of ground clearance, robust steel skid plates to better protect the underbody from damage on the trail, and expanded all-wheel drive capabilities engineered to get weekend adventurers even further off the beaten path.

The new and more capable i-VTM4 system features a stronger rear differential that can handle 40% more torque and provides 30% faster response, optimizing traction in all driving scenarios, especially slick conditions on and off-road along with a new Trail mode which optimize Pilot’s off-road capabilities.
