Expert 2021 Honda Pilot Reviews

The 2021 Honda Pilot has plenty of stellar reviews from some of the industry-leading automotive experts. To see how you can upgrade your South Plainfield drives, here are some of the 2021 Honda Pilot review highlights: 

Kelley Blue Book:

  • “(About the Honda Sensing® Safety Suite) Standard in all versions of the 2021 Honda Pilot, this array of active safety and driver-assistance features is among the best in the mainstream class. Functions include automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and lane-keeping assistance.”
  • “A dirt road should also present no problems. The Pilot’s all-wheel-drive system brings extra off-road talent, thanks to selectable terrain modes (Snow, Mud, Sand). A Pilot with this hardware can negotiate rocks, crawl up a nearly 30-degree incline, and tackle sand. Up to 70 percent of power can go to the rear wheels. It also has a torque-vectoring feature that improves handling — the outside wheels can turn quicker than the inside wheels, pulling the Pilot around a corner faster and more decisively.”

Car & Driver:

  • “Expeditious and economical engine, spacious and versatile cabin, loads of optional tech.”
  • “The Pilot’s V-6 has a sporty sound and plenty of power, and we like the unobtrusive behavior of the nine-speed automatic transmission.”
  • “Fuel economy is strong within Honda’s showroom, and the Pilot is very efficient for such a large and practical vehicle, according to both the EPA and our real-world testing.”

Edmunds:

  • “In their 2021 Honda Pilot Touring review, Emunds commented about the trim’s navigation system, roof rails, front and rear parking sensors, heated rear seats, rear entertainment system, and 10-speaker premium audio system.” 
  • “The Honda Pilot is space-efficient and smooth-riding, and it provides ample power along with decent fuel economy. You also get plentiful features, a useful cargo area and smart interior storage. This Honda is one of the most well-rounded three-row SUVs you can get.”
  • “We tested a Pilot Elite and recorded a 0-60 mph sprint of 7.0 seconds, which is a bit quicker than most rival midsize three-row SUVs. Slowing down is easy too.”
