Are you trying to figure out a way to celebrate the New Year? If so, we encourage you to visit our Anderson, IN Honda dealership to view our inventory of new Honda cars. When you think about it, is there really a better way to kick off the New Year than getting a new Honda vehicle? If there is, we certainly don’t know what it could be.
If you’re interested in a Honda automobile that’s as perfect for families as it is for transporting your adult friends to a New Year’s bash, you should take a close look at the 2017 Honda Pilot. Redesigned just last year, the new Honda Pilot has enough comfortable seating for eight adults. The Honda Pilot is available in several eye-catching trims, all of which are powered by a 3.5-liter, six-cylinder engine. This engine produces 280 hp at 6,000 rpm and 262 lb-ft of torque at 4,700 rpm.
The engine that powers the Honda Pilot is paired with a standard six-speed automatic transmission except on the Touring and Elite trims which have a standard nine-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard on all of the SUV’s trims except for the Elite model which has all-wheel drive. All-wheel drive is optional on models that come with standard front-wheel drive. On all trims except for the LX, the Honda Pilot has a traction management system that optimizes the vehicle’s ability to handle snow, mud, and other challenging conditions.
The base trim of the Honda Pilot has a multi-angle rearview camera, a tire pressure monitoring system, steering wheel-mounted controls for cruise control, audio, and the phone, Bluetooth connectivity, a 4.2-inch infotainment screen, a push-button start, and an Eco mode to help conserve fuel. The Honda Sensing options package is available on all Honda Pilot models except for the LX trim. This suite of options includes a road departure warning and mitigation system, a lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and lane keeping assist.
