The Honda Pilot 2017 gives the same look and feel except it is now more connected than ever before with the newly available compatibility with Apple CarPlayTM and Android AutoTM.

With this magnificent update on the 2017 Honda Pilot, the company is trying to retain its reigning position in the three-row SUV segment. The 2017 Honda Pilot has won multiple awards and the new additions will make it simply irresistible for car-lovers.

Apple CarPlayTM and Android AutoTM functionality will be available with a new fingerprint-resistant touchscreen of 8 inches. Smartphone mirroring features are typical on all Honda pilot models except for the base LX model which has a smaller 5-inch touchscreen. Volume-control slider will be the same which does not give a good feeling. Car and Driver, in their blog, suggested that Honda should replace this volume-slider with a volume-knob in the next Pilot edition sooner.

Customers can now choose 2017 Honda Pilot with the White Diamond Pearl exterior paint with black interior which was available only on Elite variants till now.

Jeff Conrad, Vice President and General Manager of Honda Division was quoted saying by Newchannel10.com, "The all-new third-generation Pilot has been a huge hit with SUV buyers. For 2017, we're making Pilot even more appealing with new technology and options that our customers are seeking."

The 2017 Honda Pilot will go on sale on Nov. 7 for $30,595 for LX 2WD model and $32,395 for LX AWD model. It seems that buyers need to dig their pocket to shell out a bit extra money for the 2017 Honda Pilot.

The 2017 Honda Pilot offers greater interior space and versatility with its comfortable seating pattern for eight passengers along with a cargo area without compromising third-row seating. Thanks to a 3.5 liter, a direct-injected i-VTEC V6 engine with Variable Cylinder ManagementTM technology, this car delivers powerful and fuel-efficient performance by producing a peak output of 280 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque.

For challenging driving condition, the 2017 Honda Pilot incorporates button-operated Intelligent Terrain Management System offering different modes. Now pick up your speed and comfort level with the 2017 Honda Pilot and set the road on a blaze.
