To expansive.

The car meets all my needs but for 30 k they should add a outside temperature gage to dash board. Around 25, 30 miles per hour transmission makes a noise like you hit a rock. Honda dealer sad is normal but it sounds like a bad transmission. I own the pilot lx base model 6 speed. Overall it is a good and spacious car.

Love our new used 2016 Pilot

Totally surprised by the engine power and gas mileage. The EX-L version of the Pilot is the way to go. Stick with the 6 speed transmission and add-ons you don't need. We like the 2016 and up body mods also.

Drives smooth

Drives very smooth, with great features for maneuvering turns and backing up. But lacks CD player, which is an important feature I would have loved to have in my car.

Very reliable can. Love the fact that 8 can sit.

Compact and beautiful design and despite that it has lots of space. Fits 8. My son can take all his team mates with him to games with sports equipment.

Very comfortable, reliable. Economical .

This is my second pilot. It is very comfortable to ride in, economical for the size care and very reliable. We are starting to feel we could do with a little smaller vehicle and may downsize when we trade in April.

A very reliable, stylish and cost effective SUV

Super comfortable, Powerful, Huge space, nice mileage(20-21 mpg), very reliable SUV. It was my first car and loved it from day 1. In 2016, Honda completely changed the Pilot design to be more sleek, which is amazing. I love the big rear view mirrors, hand rest, huge space. One is bound to fall in love with the car.
