Positioned by manufacturers as the best American car for a family and adventures, Pilot has won inhabitants of states thanks to capacious salon with three rows of seats and to quite good behaviour on impassability. In spite of the fact that it was initially planned to sell a car exclusively in the USA, model it has appeared so successful that Honda gradually began to deduce it on other markets. After Canada, Mexico and Latin America the turn has reached Russia.
On the motor show which has passed in Detroit Japanese have shown the pre-series sample of new generation of an off-road car. In comparison with the previous version the car has got sharp and rough lines: the body became more dimensional and angular, with a massive skeleton. The salon will be even more and more capaciously at desire on three rows of seats 8 persons can take place.
Representatives of the Japanese company have spent a lot of time to Russia, studying requirements of potential clients as much as possible to adjust the car for the Russian market, roads and environmental conditions. As a result of efforts of experts of Honda, "the Pilots" intended for the Russian roads, will undergo minor alterations. Cars will equip with headlights with washers, heating of back seats, and on a back bumper will place light reflectors.
The motor with which the novelty will be completed is rather interesting. 3,5-litre V6 it is capable to disconnect work of two or three cylinders that allows to save essentially fuel at idle standing in a stopper. Working on a full resource, the motor develops capacity of 280 h.p. and copes a 5-step transmission.
