2016 Honda Pilot: Honda’s All-New, Fully Evolved Family Crossover
I was a huge fan of Honda’s first Pilot when it launched over a decade ago. The large, three-row SUV had an appealing look wrapped around a unibody platform at a time when many large SUVs still used truck-based, body-on-frame designs.

2016 Honda Pilot Elite
The third-generation Honda Pilot SUV is like the third bowl of porridge Goldilocks sampled: just right. It’s more stylish and less truck-like than the previous two Pilots, and features a full complement of Honda Sensing driver-assist technology.

2016 Honda Pilot
Honda reliability, a roomy interior, and a practical shape are what sell the Pilot. Absent is any sense of style or indulgent luxury. The new 2016 Pilot seeks to amend that and, in so doing, take some of the drudgery out of parenthood—even as it delves further into its role as a minivan proxy.

First Drive: 2016 Honda Pilot
The current Honda Pilot, while a more-than-adequate family hauler, is getting stale: it debuted in 2009 and has had only a mild facelift, in 2012. With the 2016 Pilot, Honda needed to align its three-row SUV with its newer, smaller utility vehicles while meeting the demands of evolved buyers. The bigger, lighter Pilot wears the new Honda family face and moves a half-step closer to the minivan end of the vehicle spectrum, a slightly disappointing inevitability in this segment.

2016 Honda Pilot: First Drive
The redesigned Pilot is a little bit bigger, but not as boxy as older models, making it feel more a part of the Honda family than some weird distant cousin. It gets better fuel economy, makes more power, and comes with better safety systems and driver aids, like adaptive cruise control.

The 2016 Honda Pilot represents a complete redesign for this popular, but previously underwhelming three-row crossover.

2016 Honda Pilot First Drive [w/video]
For all it had going for it, the second-generation Honda Pilot was stung by one undeniable fact: it looked like a big, boxy SUV at a time when consumer favor was shifting towards car-based crossovers. For 2016, though, Honda is offering a third-generation Pilot that not only does away with the old model’s brutalist looks, but also adopts bleeding-edge safety technology and fuel-efficient powertrains.
