The Honda Pilot 2012 position 15 out of 23 inexpensive Midsize SUV's. It is a comparatively good family-hauling SUV. While test drivers say the Honda Pilot 2012 isn’t a bad family vehicle, it’s vanquished by many of its competitors. It doesn’t offer facial appearance like a power-folding third row or a control lift gate, both of which are options on many similarly-priced rivals. Though its button-filled dash was redesigned for the 2012 model year, still there are some things the Honda Pilot 2012 gets right. Its third row will fit adults, provided they don’t have to sit back there for too long, and many users be thankful for the fact that the steering system doesn’t soak up audio and climate reins like some competitors do. Plus, the Honda Pilot 2012 gets some of the best fuel financial system ratings among three-row crossovers with V6 engines. Overall, the Honda Pilot 2012 earns honor for its overwhelming practicality and levelheaded price.
