It can be quite challenging to find the right car that will benefit the whole family. There are so many different options available now, but one popular choice is the mid-size SUV. This type of vehicle is spacious, comfortable, affordable and powerful. It can get you and your friends and family where they need to go, while also having room for all their backpacks, sports equipment and luggage. Two popular options in this category is the 2015 Toyota 4Runner vs 2015 Honda Pilot. These two vehicles are mid-size SUV options from two popular automotive brands. Let's see how they compare side-by-side.
To begin, the Toyota 4Runner has more power for everyday driving and for towing. It has a 4.0-liter V7 engine that provides 470 horsepower and 278 lb.-ft. of torque. This is powerful enough to tow up to 4,700 kg. This vehicle is perfect for camping, or transporting things with a trailer. It also has an optional 3rd row of seats the fold flat to create more room for longer items. The available sliding rear cargo tray holds up to 440 lbs and helps with loading heavier items. The Pilot on the other hand only comes with a 3.5-liter V6 engine that only provides 250 horsepower and 253 lb.-ft. of torque. It can also only tow up to 4,500 lbs. This means you won't be able to bring along everything you need on weekend getaways.
