2016 Honda Pilot Review - Pinellas Park, FL
2016 Honda Pilot
Serving St. Petersburg, Tampa, and Clearwater
The new Pilot is bigger and more spacious, with a longer wheelbase. But even though it’s bigger, the 2016 Honda Pilot weighs almost 300 pounds less than the previous year’s model. Today’s Pilot is equipped with an advanced Earth Dreams Technology engine that works to bring you more power, more efficiently. A Variable Cylinder Management system adjusts engine settings to run on as few as two cylinders to save gas and energy when possible.

Interior
For 2016, designers added a third row of seating with available one-touch folding to the Pilot so you can accommodate up to 8 passengers in total comfort. You can even strap three car seats across the second row without breaking a sweat. And it’s not just comfortable for the little ones. Every detail has been carefully considered and redesigned to optimize comfort and convenience — like extra cup holders and available second-row captain seats. There’s plenty of legroom — even for very tall passengers, along with an advanced climate control system to keep everyone cool.
Features
The 2016 Pilot is decked out with standard and available features, making it the perfect vehicle for both everyday driving and weekend adventuring. The center console has been enlarged and enhanced to fit more and do more. Now dubbed the Tech Locker, the 2016 Pilot features a console that serves as a media hub with up to four high-power USB ports inside and room for a large purse or bag along with all of your mobile devices. This Pilot model also offers lots of available features to choose from like a panoramic sunroof and tech upgrades like a rear-seat entertainment system that will keep your passengers happy on even the longest trips.
Safety
Honda always has its eye on safety, and the Pilot has long been hailed as a top safety pick. In keeping with that legacy, the new Pilot features the most comprehensive network of safety systems ever offered on any Honda vehicle. Newly implemented features include lane-keeping assistance, adaptive cruise control, forward-collision warning, and rear cross-traffic detection. Rearview cameras are still standard on every model, along with an advanced airbag system with passenger-sensing capabilities.
