First of all I must say I love this new blue colour on the 2016 Honda Pilot. The "box" is finally gone replaced by a more rounded softer look. P.S. - Element (box1) & Pilot (box2)
A new direct-injected 3.5 Liter V6 (from the Acura MDX) will be implanted. The V6 will be paired with either the MDX’s 6 speed automatic transmission and in top trims a ZF sourced 9 speed with automatic start-stop. Power is unknown so far but the 3.5-liter V-6 in the MDX currently produces 290 horsepower and 267 lb-ft of torque. The engine is also equipped with two-stage Variable Cylinder Management, this switches between six and three cylinder modes depending on load.
The new Pilots overall length has been stretched by 3.5 inches (8.9 cm) to 194.9 (4.95 cm) but the new version drops roughly 300 pounds (136 kg) from the previous Pilot model.
Options include 20 inch wheels, panoramic roof, as well as whole list of safety equipment, including adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assistance, and road-departure mitigation.
No price point has been set as of yet as the Pilot doesn’t go on sale until this summer.
