Honda has always appealed to a family demographic. Mostly because each and every new Honda model is designed to bring you dependable performance, safety, comfort and convenience. The redesigned 2012 Honda Pilot is no exception. In fact, it was recently named "Family Car of the Year" by Cars.com.

As exciting as this award is, the revamped Pilot is no stranger to receiving accolades. In the fall of 2011, the model earned top ranking in the "USA Today, MotorWeek and Cars.com $37k and Under SUV Shootout." Now, it seems as though Cars.com just can't give the family-sized SUV enough praise. Currently in its fifth year of award-giving, the automotive information hub is also no stranger to highlighting Honda vehicles. Last year, the "Family Car of the Year" award went to the popular Honda Odyssey.

Regarding the upgraded 2012 Honda Pilot, Vicki Poponi, assistant vice president of product planning, says, "We're delighted to see the eight-passenger Pilot's versatility and family-friendly attributes recognized with this prestigious award. The newly refined and more fuel-efficient Pilot provides real value and surprising sophistication for anyone shopping in the segment."¹ In addition efficiency, the 2012 Pilot also gets a larger interior, fold-flat seating and 250-hp from a 3.5-liter engine.

Currently, we have plenty of new Honda Pilot models available at Sunnyside Honda, 7700 Pearl Rd. Middleburg Hts., OH 44130. If you're interested in taking one for a test drive, simply contact one of our brand professionals and let them know what time is most convenient for you.
