The Honda Pilot has the space, the tech, and the safety features that many families want and need. It has room for up to eight, and it has a large cargo area that can expand to accommodate large items if you fold the seats down. The Pilot emphasizes comfort for all its passengers with a smooth ride and soft suspension. Discover why the Honda Pilot is the perfect SUV for families.
The Space In the Cabin
The Pilot’s three rows of seats has spacious seating for eight with the standard configuration. If you opt for second-row captain’s chairs, it reduces seating to seven. All the seats are comfortable and remain that way even if you take your Pilot on a long road trip. There are lots of storage spots where passengers can put small items in this SUV, with storage compartments under the floor and in the center console. The cargo area has 18.5 cubic feet of storage space behind all three rows, and this can expand to 109.2 cubic feet with the seats folded down. There is even some extra storage space under the floor of the cargo area if you need it.
The Technology
The Pilot has technology for parents and for kids. In front, the base infotainment system has a 5-inch display, Bluetooth, and two USB ports. An 8-inch touch screen comes standard if you bump up to the EX, which also gets Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, satellite radio, and HD radio. Add the EX-L Navi & Res package for integrated navigation, a 112-volt power outlet, and a rear entertainment system. This has a 10.2-inch display screen mounted to the roof, a Blu-ray player, built-in streaming apps, and HDMI input, so the kids can stay occupied while they ride.
The Touring trim and above all get an in-vehicle Wi-Fi hot spot, and the Elite adds wireless charging.
The Safety Features
This SUV comes loaded with safety systems and driver aids. A forward-collision warning system with automatic braking comes standard. You also get lane-departure warning with lane-keep assist, a rearview camera, and adaptive cruise control with every trim. Bumping up to the Touring model adds front and rear parking sensors, and the Elite adds automatic windshield wipers. Every trim except the base also comes standard with a blind-spot monitor and rear cross-traffic alert.
Convenience In the Cabin
The cabin not only has a lot of space, but it also has lots of added features designed for families. Starting with the EX, one-touch sliding rear seats make it easy to access the third row, and the EX-L adds driver’s seat memory settings. This trim also comes with leather upholstery and second-row sunshades. Stepping up to the Elite adds a heated steering wheel, heated and ventilated front seats, and the second-row captain’s chairs come standard.
