In 2017, the Honda Pilot with two-wheel drive can tow up to 3,500 pounds, while the all-wheel drive version has a towing capacity of 5,000 pounds. This allows you to haul a small boat or trailer along with your belongings. It is crucial to know your vehicle's towing capacity for safety reasons and to prevent damage caused by exceeding the weight limit. It is recommended that the tongue weight of the trailer should ideally be 10-15% of the overall weight. Going over your vehicle's towing limit can strain the engine and transmission, cause faster brake wear, tire damage, and potentially lead to catastrophic failure while driving, risking property and injury.
