The Honda Pilot, is only offered with one engine, a 255hp(244bhp SAE) 3.5 liter SOHC V6 i-VTEC engine.
Its currently being built in two plants, Honda Manufacturing of Alabama in Lincoln, Alabama, and Honda Canada Manufacturing in Alliston, Ontario.

Can they really price it that low? If they can, it must be the base FWD model.
I think P1.8M-P2.2M is more realistic.

The base FWD Pilot LX costs $27K, the AWD Pilot EX with leather seats costs $33K.
If you're wondering how expensive that is, its in the same price range as the Nissan Murano and Ford Explorer...
Other than its higher price, its a cross-over SUV, so its far from being a Fortuner competitor.
In the US market, the Honda Pilot's direct Toyota competitor is the mid-size Highlander(aka Kluger) crossover SUV.

You said international, you only mentioned American companies and publications.

But I do agree the two are not in the same class. One is made to fit North Americans and the other is sized for Asians.

I saw one yesterday. Ang laki pala ng pilot and I think its even bigger than the fortuner.

I dont think it is proper to compare the two since both belong to different classes. The pilot with a 3.0 v6 * 247hp maiwanan talaga fortuner.

1million extra? I will still get the fortuner over it...IMO ganda pa rin exterior design nung fortuner kahit hindi set up, malakas nga yung engine pero city ako palagi so cant use its full potential, maybe yung interior lang ang gusto ko pero sa 1M n presyo? fortuner parin...2.5D4D na lng mas mura pa hahahaha
at gasoline pa ginagamit? mwehehehe wag na lng diesel parin ako

thats my practical side

pero if you have the money to burn well ok din kasi rare sa street makikita compare sa fortuner

just set it up yung exterior, put biggest wheel you can fit, lower it, and of course body kit

Maganda sana kung sa maganda kaso ang mahal, ang nagpamahal tax hindi features kaya sayang lang sa pera. At sa may pambili andami naman neto kakompetisyon, sa prado vs pilot thread lamang prado. May bagong labas pa na Pajero at magagandang korean brands.
