Equipped with a turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine, the Explorer delivers a robust 300 horsepower. Those looking for more power can opt for the ST trim, which has a powerful 3.0-liter EcoBoost V6 that makes 400 hp. On the other hand, the 2025 Honda Pilot has a 3.5-liter V6 engine producing 285 horsepower. While the V6 engine offers smooth performance and adequate power, it falls short of the Explorer horsepower. Also, the 2025 Ford Explorer features a standard 13.2-inch touchscreen, whereas the Honda Pilot has a 7-inch Color Touch-Sceen, making the journey in the Explorer more convenient.
Though the difference in starting MSRP between the two models is minimal, the Explorer is slightly more affordable. This cost-saving can be beneficial, especially when considering additional options and packages.
