Honda Pilot Tops Cars.com “Three-Row SUV Challenge”

At Keyes Honda, we love when one of the new Honda cars in our inventory are recognized by the auto industry for their features or overall package. After extensive testing in the Cars.com “Tree-Row SUV Challenge,” the 2016 Honda Pilot has been named the best midsize SUV of 2016 and the overall challenge winner. The challenge test consisted of a weeks’ worth of testing which included expert evaluation on a set course to assess ride, handling, braking, noise and more, a 170-mile drive to determine real-world MPG, and driving by an in-market family. The Honda Pilot was recognized for its interior space, versatility and utility with comfortable seating for up to eight passengers and advanced technology features including Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™.  “The Pilot leads the pack in smartly designed family features and attention to details,” said Fred Meier of Cars.com, “including two levels of storage built into the front doors, the big roll-top console bins, child-seat Latch anchors even in the third row, a conversation mirror and height-adjustable armrests for multiple drivers.”

We are proud to carry both the 2016 and 2017 Honda Pilot models. The 2017 Honda Pilot model has a few excellent updates but retains many of the impressive features from the 2016 model. Available in five trim levels, the 2017 Honda Pilot checks all of the boxes on most families’ SUV want list. Built for comfort, the Honda Pilot can comfortably seat as many as eight and has premium features throughout. From the market to the mall and everywhere in between, you’ll have all the space you need to fit your haul. Keep you and your entire family entertained with an available 8-in Display Audio Touch-Screen and a Rear Entertainment System while keeping them comfortable at the perfect temperature with the available independently-adjustable Tri-Zone Automatic Climate Control.
