Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Honda Pilot than in the Land Rover Range Rover Sport. The Honda Pilot offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the Land Rover Range Rover Sport, making it a little more comfortable for the driver and front passenger.

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). Clearly, the Honda Pilot is a better financial choice over the Land Rover Range Rover Sport, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Honda Pilot is much slimmer than the Land Rover Range Rover Sport, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Honda Pilot, which is slightly longer than the Land Rover Range Rover Sport.

Performance
In terms of towing capacity, the Land Rover Range Rover Sport is clearly the choice over the Honda Pilot for pulling heavy loads. When it comes to horsepower, the Honda Pilot has a lot less horsepower than the Land Rover Range Rover Sport.

Powertrain
The Honda Pilot has much lower torque than the Land Rover Range Rover Sport, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
Soccer Moms and those who need to chauffeur around a lot of people will appreciate the Honda Pilot more than the Land Rover Range Rover Sport, due to its significantly greater seating capacity.
