The 2009 Honda Pilot offers an authentic SUV exterior design
while further enhancing on-road refinement and increasing
interior functionality. A modern, stylish and spacious interior
provides room for up to eight passengers while also providing
more space behind the third row for items as large as a mid-size
cooler or a folded stroller.
New standard engineering features on all models include a more-
powerful, 250 horsepower, 3.5-liter i-VTEC V-6 engine with the
latest generation of Variable Cylinder Management™ (VCM®) that
works in 6-cylinder mode for performance and 3- or 4-cylinder mode
for fuel efficiency. Additional new standard equipment includes
Class III hitch, hill start assist, larger 17-inch wheels and tires
(+1-inch) and a lift-up glass hatch as part of the tailgate. New interior
features include a telescopic steering column, enhanced audio
systems and much more. The Honda DVD Rear Entertainment
System™ is available on the Pilot EX-L and Pilot Touring.
Standard safety equipment includes the Advanced Compatibility
Engineering™ (VSA®), also commonly referred to as electronic
stability control, with traction control and ABS; three-row side curtain
airbags with a rollover sensor; dual-state, dual-threshold front
airbags; a driver's front side airbag, and a front passenger's side
airbag with an occupant position detection system. The Pilot is
equipped with four Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children
(LATCH) positions - more than any other SUV currently in the segment.
