In a press release made today, Honda announced their new SUV, the 2009 Honda Pilot, after a few days ago we showed you photos of the car caught in Detroit without any camo. The new SUV from Honda is powered by Honda’s 3.5 liter V6 engine which develops 250 hp and 253 lb-ft of torque and features the latest generation of fuel-saving Variable Cylinder Managementâ„¢ (VCM) technology that can operate the engine with all six cylinders for power or just four or three cylinders to improve fuel efficiency. This improves the fuel economy of the 2009 Pilot to 17/23 (mpg city/mpg highway) at 2WD versions and 16/22 for 4WD. The engine is mated to a standard five-speed automatic and VTM-4 four-wheel-drive remains an option.
Besides the enhanced powertrain the new Pilot also has a new list of available features which include Bluetooth, Hill Start Assist, Power Tailgate, and a Tailgate with a lift-up glass hatch and will be available in four versions, LX, EX, EX-L and a new Touring model.
Check out a complete photo gallery, the full press release and a video of the 2009 Honda Pilot after the jump.
Pilot seems a good car with six sits and with fuel-saving technology. I like Honda’s vehicles
