2007 Honda Pilot
July 1st, 2006
The 2006 Honda Pilot makes a bold statement wherever it goes, whether it’s a weekend adventure to the mountains or a daily commute through the urban jungle.
The Honda Pilot is Honda’s second SUV fully built and designed by Honda. Honda’s initial SUV offering for many years was the Passport, which was a rebadged Isuzu Rodeo. Where the Passport was truck-based, the Pilot shares underpinnings and the powertrain with the Acura MDX, which has a lineage which can be traced to the Honda Odyssey minivan (itself based on the global light truck chassis). The Pilot’s unibody construction, however, is fortified with integrated perimeter frame rails, which helps it withstand light off-road use.
