Looks like it's a wannabe Santa Fe or Kia Borrego.
The old Pilot looked much nicer.

It is the a generation, so it aptly looks like the child of the old Pilot and Odyssey.

It looks like a Traverse, especially behind the c pillar....or a minivan.
I think the current Pilot is a lot more muscular looking!

Not crazy about the color of that one...but to me it's a significant improvement over the previous model that has that squashed appearance.
Interior looks very nice and has Honda's famous versatile seating abilities.
If I was in the market for a new SUV...I'd very much take a test drive in one. Especially if it would be as fantastic and flawless as my Ridgeline has been.
Good job so far Honda. Conservative styling and not gaudy looking.

It's decent looking SUV, but it needs bigger wheels. It looks odd with that big body and small wheels.

Then it should sell very well.

Agree.
The previous model styling is a real turn off, especially the rear is so ugly, it is one of the most ugly looking mid-size SUV on market.

That is the recipe: Make it look bland - it'll sell in droves.

You got that one right! When Honda came out with it my first thought was that it won't be around long for a Honda.
The messed up on it for sure...but this new one should remedy all. I'm glad they didn't go for the tacky "muscular" look as well. Leave that up to Dodge (did you see the new RAM thread?)

One persons bland is another person beauty my friend.
I don't think it's too bland though. Honda has done extremely well with it's conservative styling (for most of it's vehicles) the past couple of decades. Some call it bland....some don't.

I have to agree, it's growing on me. I'm starting to like it. I need to see it in person, and in some different colors. Especially a dark/black interior.

Kind of ugly, especially the interior. Although the push button gear selector looks neat.
It will do well "because it's a Honda" although I'd never trust a 6 or 9 speed from Honda. They did so well with their new 5 speed, only took them like 6 years to fix that one.

Certainly. My point was, the less controversial you make it look, the more likely it is to appeal to large population.

It looks like a Mercedes-Benz GL450 with tires/wheels that are too small.
Actually, I like it better than the previous generation, and it might look even better in person. I like the idea of 3 rows of seats. How does it compare to an Odyssey in terms of interior and cargo space? If I needed extra seating space, I'd much rather drive this Pilot than Odyssey.
