I have a Ridgeline AWD and the iVTM system is amazing. In inclimate weather the thing is unstoppable. I don't have any need to go off road, but I can absolutely vouch for the effectiveness of the AWD system in snow and in the wet. Even on dry roads, the torque vectoring improves handling. People love to poke fun at Honda's "trucks", but they have more capability than most owners will ever use.

The ridge line still has the previous gen awd system , which is still more than enough for 98% of people who don’t do anything close to this type of off-roading . This new pilot since it just got re-designed first, has the newest awd system that’s the biggest advancement since the 2003 pilot . The next gen Honda passport and ridge line will get this new awd system

I had a 04 RWD ranger I totaled on a random wet spot that froze in otherwise good weather. I got myself a 2024 ridgeline for this reason. I need a truck for work and it’s the best AWD. No need to turn on and off my 4x4. It’s always going no matter the conditions. It makes me feel much better. I don’t off road. I just wanted to feel safe on road after that. 😊

It really helps to know what the drive modes do, and I wish Honda would publish it. Through my research getting my ‘19 AWD RIDGELINE I learned that Sand Mode sends 70% to the rear and “locks” it. Snow mode is more of a 50/50 split and starts in second gear to limit slip. Mud and Sand have very aggressive throttle and traction while Snow is safe and reserved. Sand mode being the most aggressive with the most shut off features and trac. Hope that helps!

I've had my Ridgeline for a few years, and the AWD system is really well tuned and fast reacting. I've had Subarus for many years with the old 5 speed and viscous diffs, the STI 6 speed and mechanical diffs, and the newer CVT awd setup that's ABS based and with ABS derived torque vectoring, have used older Honda CRVs with really basic open diffs, and Honda's newer systems from SH-AWD through any current variant are all solid. I do like they've made the newer gen handle thermals better. That was the only shortcoming. The Honda system by name of SH-AWD or iVTM-4, makes most other systems feel really outdated. While I do like the old school mechanical diff package, dynamic control of power delivery really maximizes tire utilization. The system is largely steering angle based, and it tries its best to get you to the line you aim for. It'll manage both front and rear tires both with ABS braking and rear diff clutches to create positive and negative vectoring. If I tire can do something towards your goal, it'll make every attempt to use it. It makes these vehicles far more capable than their size and weight. For these tests with Honda's system, generally the best option to pick is snow. While some of the other modes seem more aggressive, they have limitations in what they do, and you actually lose some of the dynamic adjustment the system does. Snow offers the most independent tire control and torque vectoring behavior, and it will also still let you spin tires after an initial phase of attempting not to. The sand, mud, rock, etc names used just makes for a more aggressive throttle, higher rpm hang, fixes the center diff, and loses some of the torque vectoring function and independent tire control. Basically there's a much bigger rubberbanding between what the sensors read and the system reacting to spin and slides. However, the lose of individual wheel control tends to make these modes less capable for actual traction work. They're only good for tossing the truck around. On the Trailsport, the trail mode is a different thing, but I don't know how that's configured. I've never yet found these modes to be better unless you want to slide the truck around. Frankly, that's about the only benefit of these other modes. Their stability control is set looser and lets the back end out. Normal and snow modes don't want you to do that, so both of these require you to slightly apply higher than neutral line steering angle to force the system into an oversteer state. Again, the Trail mode can be specialized to do certain things, but I don't know if it's better or worse than snow mode for actual individual wheel control and ABS and diff clutch work. For me and the Ridgeline, snow has been best and has consistently shown to be better for traction management.

Very impressive, I just wish Honda offered another interior color choice. It's a big dark interior in black with little contrast anywhere. Even the Elite's brown interior would break up all the black in the Trailsport. Also, I wish the Trailsport was an add-on package instead of a trim like Kia has smartly done with the Telluride. Then you could get the "Elite Trailsport" and have features like front cooled seats, head up display, Bose speakers, larger digital cluster. Or maybe offer a Trailsport trim as is and an Elite Trailsport for those who want the added features and another interior color choice.

The 2014 and earlier Ridgies do not share the same i-VTM4 system. That has the VTM4-Lock system that "locks" the rear diff via the lock button at low speeds. This is not a true locking diff. It is just clutch packs that are engaging to send equal torque to each rear wheel. The iVTM-4 system automatically sends power where it needs to go (up to 70% to the rear and can split 100% left or right on that rear axle). This too is a clutch based diff, but is computer controlled. The torque-vectoring rear diff also comes into play on road where it can help rotate the rear end around corners which is quite a lot of fun powering through tight corners.

Tommy: THANK YOU! I was holding my breath for the most important question: Will he do the test with only one FRONT wheel with traction? And you did! I don't believe you did with the earlier Honda models. I think I remember you had a Ridgeline on the Razor Rocks, and it had 1 front wheel in the air. And even though it or a similar model had done great on the rollers, you were going nowhere. And I think this because the previous I-VTM-4 systems, as great as they were, had no break vectoring. Is that right? So, if most of the power was going to the rear wheels, but the only front wheel that also had traction was getting zero power, you could not get up the razor rocks. But, it would seem that, if it was a lack of perfection before, it is not now! Not even in plain vanilla normal mode. Yay! Thanks for checking the 2 rear tires and 1 front tire with zero traction situation on the rollers! And pretty dang impressive off road as well! Wow! PS: try that hill again, using a bit more momentum AND staying in trail mode. Sand mode allows the most wheel spin and routes most torque to the rear wheels. I think the main problem on that hill was lack of a low enough gear. Hence the need for a bit of momentum. But, with a little momentum, no problem! WhoooooHooo!

Now do the same tests with the current gen Ridgeline, before they intro a Trailsport in the next year, as the IVTM4 torque vectoring AWD has been on that since the gen 2 rolled out in 2017. It may lack the skid-plates and mild lift of the Pilot Trailsport, but the AWD system is the same (and if you have the 21 or later refresh, the 9 speed ZF9HP transmission has a 20:1 crawl ratio in 1st gear which is not too shabby, and for haters is also used in the Jeep Cherokee and Land Rover Discovery Sport, both well proven as mild off-road vehicles), so if you put comparable tires on it you should get comparable results. The Ridgeline may not be a "hardcore" off-road vehicle, but it has always been way more capable than most reviewers, including this channel, have ever given it credit for. The many tests done were on its stock Firestone Destination LE tires, which frankly suck on any vehicle in any conditions, and the simple addition of an AT tire (I can personally vouch for Falken Wildpeak AT3W's) make it surprisingly formidable off-road due to its AWD system.

Looks like they've taken the older 2005/2006 MDX dna for the Trailsport Pilot, but new interior and different exterior. Those Mdx's were rock solid. IF I'm correct, these pilots trailsports will be solid performers for many years. I do think the tires on the Trailsports need to be more offroad (like the old mdx's) and that can improve the offroad capabilities.

Your dog is soooo You personified ❤😊, soooo Floofy! Without a care in the 🌎! I'm not big into offroading. Had bfs that ❤❤❤ it. I've had real off roading capable trucks. More for look😂, I mean at least I'm honest right? That aside, I can still appreciate the effort that goes into them. Honda has as you say: The Chops in Racing for 50 yrs. So it does not surprise me. They're heading into Toyota's market. It's a Start*** certainly not a 4runner & definitely not a Land Cruiser yet. But pretty impressive for a cross over! That last bit reminded me of you driving backwards at McD's(as I still smh😒). Though tbh, if I'm buying a 4WD specific vehicle. I really do like the Jeep 4XE GC's in the Summit. I like the EVERYTHING Package! Luxury & Technology package including best fuel one can get. Not sorry 23 mpg that the New Mazda CX90 gets as a turbo s is not good. My 30 yr old Cadillac Fleetwood city gets 17, 6 mpg less than a BRAND new vehicle. That's plain and simple SAD! The plug-in version Though? That should be the BARE MINIMUM of where ALL Vehicles SHOULD BE Today! In my less than humble opinion 🤔 - back on track. This for what it is, is pretty nifty.

Those continentals are sweet. Put a set on my sprinter b4 the cp4 fuel pump went out on a road trip… managed to get about a 1000 miles on them before trading in the van. Ouch. I think I’m still paying for them. Those tires rock, sprinters don’t. Can’t stress it enough. Y’all like those ko2 tires but I ran those on a Tacoma years back and they really didn’t impress.

Excellent AWD system. One of the best, but I would still take a 4WD with a rear locker any day.

If only I could get the Trailsport in 8 seat configuration, then it would already be in my garage. Doh!! The car shopping will continue later this year.

This pilot trail sport or the explorer timberline are probably my next car. Doubt I'll get the Cherokee L (make sure you test the three row!) But great test!

15:08 Clearly grip wasn’t the issue, as all four tires weren’t turning (specifically the left rear). Interesting that the transmission appeared to suffer from the same protection system as a CVT, in that your foot was to the floor, but no spin.

Looking for the best vehicle for off road and dry camping. Do the rear seats fold flat for sleeping?

Put all four on rollers does is it stop sending power to the tires? On the hill you are going to torch the transmission or axle clutches

r you guys noticing any vibration issue ? I have EXL AWD and it has vibration issue between 1800 to 2000 rpm. slight vibe on accelerator Padel and even on steering wheel. I googled and see lot of people having problem with 2023 pilot. sometimes we can feel the road on driver seat. its very strange. Please do let me know if you have noticed any mild vibration on any of your test Pilot 2023

Would the regular 'non Sport Trail" model be able to pass these tests too? Beside the 1 inch height difference, all Honda Polit models have the same engine and 4WD system, right?
