My first day at East Coast Honda was exciting! I got a opportunity to spend time with this fresh-on-the-lot 2016 Honda Pilot.

I recently purchased the 2016 Honda Pilot EXL in diamond white pearl 3 days ago and I absolutely love it! Love the new look, love the lavish, comfortable interior in all leather and has ample seating room! - California Mom

We just left the dealership and put my $1000 deposit on the Honda Pilot Elite. I added the running boards so my 5 and 2 year old can climb in easier. total came to $51,000 It wont arrive till late August as it has to be built...can't wait to get this beautiful car on the road. thanks again for this great review.

I still like the boxy body of pilot. this one just like a bigger CRV.

I love that u are one of the only non bias car reviewer!

Awesome in depth review, the best iv'e seen so far on this vehicle. We were going to purchase the 2015 Buick Enclave, thanks to your review, were now going to spend that money on the 2016 Honda Pilot Elite.

Carl Piepora Thanks Carl... you made my day! I know you are going love it.

Thank You Mike! We just bought one of these for my birthday!!! I love it. It is like driving a spaceship. I have lots to learn and watching your video has helped me so much.

Edison plug???? I've never heard that expression in my life!...Pretty cool to me though, since I collect antiques such as wind-up phonographs or "Talking Machines" that Edison invented... Great review!...Keep up the good work!

Finally found someone that can describe car info in detail. And also explain what or how the button work. Keep it up.

Great review. I just purchased this model. I had no idea about the blind spot feature. You showed alot things that the dealership didn't even show me.

It has its own unique style

I have a 2015 odyssey and I love it the pilot will probably be my next purchase

Thanks for a great video with lots of useful information. So many styling improvements over last year!

this was a great help learning all about the 2016 Honda Pilot Touring. Thanks again, doing a great job. Have a HAPPY NEW YEAR & a Safe one. GOD Bless

Awesome job on this excellent and thorough review! Love this SUV.

Thanks for the review. Very informative. So much so that we just purchased one just like that today at Honda of Spring (TX). It is everything we could want in a vehicle. Love it! And the crew at Honda of Spring were extremely helpful, making the process of buying a new car better than we've ever experienced over the past 45 years. Thanks again. I learned a few things I had already forgotten that it had. LM Spring Texas

Thank You Mike. I love your reviews because they are so detailed. I love this 2016 Honda Pilot. I really think it will be my next SUV. Thank You again.

What people forget is the replacement for these big tire. These 20's are going to be very costly to replace.

Your reviews are amazing! So detailed and thorough! It really helps with the decision making of buying a new car!

You did an extremely good job touring the Honda Pilot Touring model. You covered all the new and advanced features in a way I like to be shown -- like a member of the family. I may not buy the thing but I can now make an INFORMED decision. Thank you for your time and effort.

John Apodaca Thank you for your feedback John!

Mike, I really appreciate your interest in my comments, and that you want to verify my info. You asked if I could share my knowledge about car and truck suspensions. There are metallurgical reports you can read on line. You research them based on the metal and application you want to know about, but they can be tedious. I have taken physics and multiple chemistry classes in college, which has helped me in understanding what they are saying, but a lot of it is pretty strait forward. The rest is 30yrs of car magazines, books, talking to mechanics, noting where a suspension bends from a crash, both at salvage yards and crash tests. Also self observations of suspension control arms, struts, spindles, mounting points, metals used and whether the car has a subframe or not, if so what type, if not a body on frame design. Also observing design changes through the years. I learn as much about cars as I can, but I'm not really interested in doing a blog or KZread channel. I do hope reviewers will talk more about the suspension and chassis, including some video. I hope my comments will help consumers, as well as the reviewer.

This was a great review Mike. It was very informative.

Perfect. You showed me everything I needed to know.

At the dealership they had a 2019 Honda Pilot with graphite-looking running boards. Really cool looking. We negotiated that they include these on the 2016 Honda Pilot Touring we purchased. The next day they called telling us they do not fit the 2016 model . . . very disappointed :(

Mike- thanks for the review here! Really helped narrow my decision. Keep up the awesome work.

Wish you would have specified about the latch and top tether anchor connections. Other then that you were very thorough, good job. I would love to own/lease this vehicle.

Mike, if your battery is dead or your key fob isn't working, how do you get into the vehicle? I want to buy one of these and this is something I have been wondering about. I haven't seen anything about it in any of the reviews. Thanks much!

great job very helpful, thanks Mike

Great review. Really detailed. The way it should be. Thanks!

I traded a 2003 Toyota Sequoia for this 2016 Pilot Touring. This 2016 Pilot Touring has many modern cool gadgets and many safety features. The exterior is sexy, and the interior is roomy and efficient. The 2nd and 3rd rows have plenty of room for several standard size bottle waters. This car also has enough USB and power sockets so that all 8 passengers can charge their phones at the same time. I added the hitch/harness for the occasional U-Haul trailer rental. I also added the roof cross bars and the mud splash guards.

To look at this vehicle it doesn't remind me of any Honda. And the gearshift is outta this world cool.

Great review I love it.

I love it I'm buying it on my birthday

Thanks for an informative video. Funny thing I've noticed - in all of the 2016 Pilot videos available on KZread, you can clearly notice a lot of fingerprint smear marks on the navigation system's glossy display, including this video. Does it look as bad as on videos or is it actually worse-looking in real life? ;-)

GOOD VIDEO KEEP THE GOOD WORK

Well done with review! I watched the entire review. My wife and I are considering a 2016 Honda Pilot Touring. Would love to hear any problems this vehicle may have from experienced folks. Thanks Rajiv

This was a great video I wish I thought to look for a overview video b4 I bought mine. Could've saved me a few bucks replacing the missing Blu ray remote control & headphones. Either way I love the car.

Very nice!

Nice review :P subbed

Thanks mikes

Great review, I enjoyed the time taken to point out all the options available on the Pilot. I have 2 questions my local dealership states the touring only comes in captain chairs, but I see that yours is in a bench model? I'm wondering was I miss informed? Does the elite have power assist folding for the second and third rows or are they all manual lowering like this touring version? Thanks for a great review again and I look forward to my questions being answered.

I own a 2016 Honda Pilot Touring. I don't know about other countries, but here in the US the Touring comes with bench style seats on the 2nd and 3rd row. Only the Elite has the captain chairs in the 2nd row, at least in the US.

I love it

You never mentioned the HUD. That is one feature I want in my vehicle.

Nice show with details and high quality, is this a lunar silver metallic ؟ which one from your aspect is better Honda Pilot or Ford Explorer ؟ thank you

Mike u done aa great job. is it not available in black leather interior

So cool 👌👌😄

Concerning the new nav,,,,, Will it warn the driver when you approach a camered light?

Too bad they made the cargo area a LOT smaller, a much higher hatch threshold, no CarPlay, and a remarkably unattractive exterior. Bonus points for removing the rear opening window to now have fixed.

Good job for this education. I have the standard 2016 Pilot. I want to know how to fold the mirrors. Also, you didn't show the buttons when you operated the roof.

Does the new Honda Pilot Elite come with or can you get Apple Car Play?

heard some comments about 9 speed transmission that need some programming, don't buy this version yet wait until Honda re-program the transmission. any comments? thanks

This is the only Honda Pilot that is the best out of all of them

Great video , not much said about the stereo in the touring package though 😳

hi does the FWD also have the torque vectoring for better handling and modes for snow sand and mud? or does only the AWD give that option?

I love the car

could you do a sound test please on the pilot

it's very helpful video. this thing has foot parking break or electric switch ?

Mike does the 2016 pilot touring have heated and cooled seats? Also does it have a CD player?

nice vid, but try to hurry on irrelevant things like proximity keys :) good overall though

He’s wrong about the lane button on the steering wheel. It will actually try and turn you back into the lane in it senses you leaving it. Will also fight you trying to move into another lane with out signaling.

LKAS is lane keep assist which will actually steer the pilot back in its lane if it should drift out

i googled this is about $43,000, that's prob bc it's a touring.. as long as i get back up camera, and cd player and iphone/android hookup and Black leather interior.. IM GOOD WITH THAT💃🏽

Cool blue ray and regular DVD? RCA jacks for watching stuff off your phone? Or laptop?

my moms 05 dodge grand caravan sxt has most of the features this car has xD

I've had a 2016 Pilot touring for a year with constant audio, camera and navigation issues. Every time I take it to the dealership they do an update and it doesn't work. Honda refuses to do anything. So sad they don't honor their warranty.

can you say something about the subwoofer,amplifier & 10 speakers that touring level has? looks like they wanna sound good like dodge Durango limited with subwoofer, amplifier and 10 beats speakers, i dunno HONDA or DODGE?
