The 2016 Honda Pilot goes on sale this summer, and the differences are stark. The current model, now seven years into its production run, is clearly a throwback to the boxy look of a body-on-frame utility. The new Pilot is more curvaceous in the mold of other unitbody SUVs such as the Kia Sorento or Hyundai Santa Fe, with a strong family resemblance to the smaller Honda CR-V. The ’16 Pilot is handsome, to be sure, though its three-bar grille and headlight configuration could be mistaken for a 2012 Ford Fusion.

The next Pilot is three inches longer than the current one, but Honda says curb weight drops “nearly 300 pounds.” That should leave the lightest all-wheel-drive Pilot at about 4,100 pounds. Power comes from an update of Honda’s 3.5 liter i-VTEC V6, still with variable displacement technology but now also with direct injection. Output? Honda calls it “the most powerful Pilot ever.” We’d project about 300 horsepower and 270-280 lb-ft of torque.
