Towing Capacity, Capability, & Drive Modes  

When properly equipped, both the 2020 Honda Pilot and the Chevy Traverse can tow up to 5,000 pounds. Additionally, both impressive SUVs offer optional all-wheel drive models for added capability across difficult terrain or adverse weather conditions. 

In the 2020 Chevy Traverse, an accessible drive mode dial lets you shift smoothly among four different drive modes, ready to meet the demands of the road. Seamlessly transition among Front-Wheel Drive, All-Wheel Drive, Off-Road, and Tow/Haul modes with the simple turn of a dial. 

For families who plan on towing recreational equipment like small campers and recreational boats, the Tow/Haul mode in the Chevy Traverse makes it easy. Furthermore, for the bold and spirited clan eager to break new ground, the Off-Road mode puts everything in reach.

In comparison, the 2020 Honda Pilot does not have a drive mode dial located in the center console, nor an available Tow/Haul mode.

Open-Sky Interior: Honda Pilot vs Chevy Traverse

An available 1-touch power panoramic moonroof in the Honda Pilot lets you bring the outside in on your own terms. However, in the 2020 Chevy Traverse, you can turn it up a notch with the optional Dual SkyScape® 2-panel power sunroof. 

That sunroof feels more like an adaptable skylight than an extra-large window. The additional panel lets you and your passengers enjoy a convertible-like ride with sun or moonlight illuminating the cabin and fresh air coming in from all angles. Open both for a full-body experience or choose one or the other.

Organization & Storage for the Modern Family

Hands-free power tailgates in both the Traverse and the Pilot make loading the trunk as simple as waving your foot. Optional cargo bin dividers in the 2020 Honda Pilot help you organize smaller objects in the back of your SUV. 

Conversely, in the 2020 Chevy Traverse, you have two hidden storage spaces to secure your belongings. Behind the infotainment screen, you can keep your valuables out of sight while still in reach. Hop in back to check out the available underfloor storage units that let you load more without taking up trunk space.
