There is a 7-Way connector for the 2020 Honda Pilot with Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package part # 118286. The Tekonsha wiring will plug into a connection point behind the rear bumper. I like the Tekonsha wiring because it has proven to be a bit more reliable than the other brands. I have attached an installation video for your reference.

If you need a hitch, I recommend etrailer.com Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98840 for the 2020 Honda Pilot because it's the least visible option. It has a concealed cross tube design so the only portion of the hitch that is visible once installed is the receiver square for a nice clean OEM look.

If you plan on doing some towing you may consider the etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag. If you are not sure how much rise/drop you may need in a ball mount to tow your trailer level, I recommend to take a look at the helpful article I have attached about how to figure the amount of rise or drop you may need.
