5 Favorite Features of the Redesigned 2019 Honda Pilot Elite

Highly functional and extremely versatile, the 2019 Honda Pilot Elite is ideal for individuals and families with a daily variety of ever-changing needs. Noteworthy aspects of the newly-resigned vehicle include seating for up to eight people, an in-car PA system, standard Bluetooth Streaming Audio, wireless phone charger, and 4 convenient USB ports. Additional features deemed popular with the brand's current consumer base also consist of:

Advanced Blu-Ray™ Rear Entertainment System

Honda's available entertainment system for back seat passengers features a 10.2-inch hi-resolution screen to keep restless riders occupied during long jaunts with the ability to play a DVD, stream from a compatible smartphone, or connect an external source via HDMI cable. The device also comes complete with a How Much Farther?™ app that lets viewers keep track of trip progress.

Power Tailgate

The Pilot's versatile cargo area offers a generous amount of interior storage space which is easily enlarged by moving the one-touch second row seats and folding down the third row seats in order to conform to the specific individual needs of hauling cargo or moving people. Additionally, the available power tailgate with hands-free access is conveniently activated by the simple wave of the foot and makes loading and unloading a breeze.

Power-Folding Side Mirrors

Keeping the vehicle safer from ancillary damage, the vehicle's side mirrors now fold in at the push of a button, keeping them safe and out of harm's way. And as a first for Honda, the side mirrors also have glare-reducing auto dimming capability to help cut down the brightness of following headlights.

Honda Sensing

Now standard on all Pilot models for 2029, Honda Sensing provides safety and driver assist features such as Collision Mitigation Braking to prevent frontal collisions and Adaptive Cruise Control for maintaining a set driving speed and following-distance interval. Additionally, Road Departure Mitigation uses steering and braking to keep the vehicle from unintentional leaving a road with detected lane markings, and the Lane Keeping Assist System further centers the vehicle within the desired lane.

Intelligent Traction Management

Working to improve driving dynamics and vehicle handling, Honda's Intelligent Traction Management System allows drivers to select from four adjustable drive modes comprised of normal, snow, mud, and sand. The system is offered as standard equipment on the Pilot EX, EX-L, Touring, and Elite trim levels.

With a 280 horsepower V-6 engine and a 26 mpg fuel efficiency rating, the 2019 Honda Pilot is ready to take your family on its next adventure.
