What is the measurements o the Pilot? Length Width Height weight |
|
|
Back when Honda and Rover were buddies, Honda was selling a rebadged Disco and calling it the "Crossroad". If they were going to revive an old name, I'd rather they had used that.
Here's the orginal Pilot, for anyone that's curious. |
|
| Before Pilot, the older version (it had yellow plastic) was called Odyssey. I like the name "Pilot" better than "Passport." Based on the drawings, I think the Pilot will be a nice looking vehicle. I bought a Highlander back in March and it's a great vehicle. I'm curious about the price of the Pilot. Whatever it is, I'm sure there will be a dealer "mark-up." | |

The rear view drawing makes it look kinda like a Mitsubishi Montero, without the spare. Funny, since the report says that it will have the widest track in its class. But these are just renderings after all... I wonder if the 3rd row (capable of holding 3!) is the MDX/Odyssey kind: folds flat into the floor? |
|

even with a markup, the Pilot should be cheaper than a Highlander. I know, when I went shopping for one with a friend, the limiteds were going for at least 32k. I think the Pilot will have the same kind of 3rd row as the MDX, just wider |

I'm wondering if Honda will offer a 3-seat front bench as an option (if the third seat remains a 2-seater) to get that 8-passenger capacity? Bob |

Gag me with a spoon...I have never had a need or desire to look inside of a PT Cruiser. Well, out of curiosity, I measured my '93 Accord's driver seat cushion. From where it touches the bottom of the seatback to the front edge of the seat, it measures approximately 21". BTW, my Buick's driver seat measures 20.5" and is also very comfortable. |

Bob - According to the interior picks, it seats three across in the third row. Whether or not they mean three human-sized occupants remains to be seen. Since they are boasting class leading cargo capacity, I would have to assume that the seat folds pretty flat. Of course, I also expect that "class-leading" will mean exactly one cubic foot more space than the competition. I dunno if the pilot will be cheaper than the Highlander, but it'll probably offer more content and utility for the same lofty price. |

If the third row folds into the floor, as the Odyssey does, then when it's in use, there will be a large trunk like area. If the Pilot is the same length as the Odyssey (reported to be 12" longer than the MDX)the cargo space will be great. I currently drive an MDX and cargo space is my only complaint. Well, the driver seat is uncomfortable, but I'm getting used to it. |
