Is the NEW 2021 Honda Pilot Special Edition an SUV worth the PRICE?
Рет қаралды 266,222
3 жыл бұрынThe Pilot gets a new trim for 2021 from Honda. Under the hood is the tried and true 3.5L V6 that produces 280HP & mated to a 9-speed automatic transmission. On the outside the Special Edition brings blacked out trim to the grill, wheels, side sills and rear bumper. On the inside there is a ton of technology and well laid out interior. Is the NEW 2021 Honda Pilot Special Edition an SUV worth the PRICE?

Just purchased this model 2 weeks ago. This trim was perfect for me. Went with the dark gray. I absolutely love it. Coming from a 2019 Jeep Cherokee. It’s so easy to drive, Everything has a button, very smooth with a great turn radius. Only complaint would probably be the operating system. Jeep/Chrysler has them beat there I’d say.
