Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Honda Pilot than in the Dodge Durango, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Honda Pilot offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the Dodge Durango, offering the driver and front passenger a bit more room and comfort.

Convenience
Due to the larger tank size and better fuel economy of the Dodge Durango, you will definitely be making fewer stops at the gas station than with the Honda Pilot.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Dodge Durango will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Honda Pilot, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Dodge Durango is much slimmer than the Honda Pilot, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. When looking at overall length, the Dodge Durango takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Honda Pilot.

Handling

Powertrain
With similar torque, the Dodge Durango and the Honda Pilot are about even in transmitting their respective horsepower to the wheels.

Utility
