South Motors Honda: a Miami Honda Dealership.

2008 Honda Pilot Feature Highlights

Exterior Style The first things your friends will notice when you drive up in your new 2008 Pilot are the grille, sculpted hood and fenders in front. Aerodynamic Careful attention to body shape and utilization of under-body deflectors help make the Pilot one of the most aerodynamic SUVs in its class. And the lift-up tailgate makes loading a breeze. Rugged Even the wide, rugged silhouette inspires confidence. Make no mistake; this surprising SUV is the real deal—whether you're eating dirt off-road or searching for sushi. Interior Convenience Leather seating for eight (EX-L), a Multi-Function Center Console and dual climate control are just the beginning of the interior convenience features in the Pilot. Navigation System Choose the available Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation System™ with Voice Recognition, Rearview Camera* and Off-Road Tracking to improve your sense of direction. Entertainment Fire up the available Honda DVD Rear Entertainment System featuring a DVD player w/CD and video-game capability and the applause from the back seat will get even louder. There’s even a Second-Row Fold-Down Activity Tray to help keep the party going. Performance Towing The 3.5-liter V-6 engine on 4WD Pilot vehicles delivers with an impressive 244 hp and 240 lb.-ft. of torque, allowing this sophisticated SUV to tow up to 4,500 lbs. 2WD vehicles are equipped with a 3.5-liter i-VTEC V-6 engine with Variable Cylinder Management (VCM), which optimizes fuel efficiency. Power For efficiency and power, look to the Programmed Fuel Injection and direct ignition system. All Pilot trim levels give you the option of 2- or 4-wheel drive, and on the outside, a rigid body resists torsional and bending forces. And the Variable Torque Management® 4-Wheel-Drive System (VTM-4®) automatically engages to transfer power to the rear wheels when it detects possible loss of front-wheel-drive traction. Suspension And independent front and rear suspension provides precise handling and an incredibly smooth, supple ride. Safety 5-Star Safety The Pilot puts that philosophy in action, and the proof is in a 5-star rating the vehicle earned in frontal- and side-impact testing by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).(Government star ratings are part of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA) New Car Assessment Program (www.safecar.gov). Ridgeline was tested with standard side-impact airbags (SABs)). Confidence on the Road The anti-lock braking system (ABS) helps the driver retain steering control when braking hard, while Vehicle Stability Assist™ (VSA®) with traction control helps give the driver more control if wheel slippage is detected. Plus, Pilot vehicles with the navigation system feature a standard rearview camera that helps you avoid obstacles behind you. Peace of Mind While sharing the road with many other drivers, sometimes a collision just cannot be avoided. So certain standard safety features in the Odyssey can help provide superior defense. Our Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure is designed to absorb impacts of vehicles of various sizes in the event of front-end collisions. And front 3-point seat belts with automatic tensioning devices, front side airbags and side-impact door beams all help to protect you and your passengers in sufficient impacts.
