HONDAPilot 2016 - 2018

　　At the 2015 Chicago Auto Show, Honda showed its biggest SUV: the Pilot. It gave up all the previous design cues and adopted a new styling, which is more fluid, more like its smaller sibling the CR-V, the best sold SUV in the world at the time.

　　The new generation features more premium features, including optional and more efficient LED projector headlights with automatic high-beam technology. Also, it received LED daytime running lights and taillights. For a better look on the road, the Pilot has 20-inch wheels.

　　Since the Pilot is a high-demand car, the manufacturer used premium quality materials throughout the cabin and has added LED lights inside. The passengers can sit on three rows. The second row may be ordered as a three-seat bench or with two individual so-called “captain-seats” on the upper trim level, offering more comfort on the road.

　　On the dashboard, there is a new 8” capacitive touch-screen with navigation system and 3D-rendering of the map for easier recognition of the surrounding area. The Pilot's Display Audio system enables simplified smartphone connectivity making for easier access to all the features and connectivity options of the HondaLink connected-car system. A 9-inch rear entertainment system with DVD and new Blu-Ray disc capability is available.

　　The only engine available is the new 3.5-liter, direct-injected i-VTEC V6 engine with Variable Cylinder Management (VCM) cylinder deactivation technology, which offers 250 hp. The standard transmission is a 6-speed automatic but there is also an option for a 9-speed automatic for the upper trims.
