It also offers a premium audio system with AM/FM radio, CD capability, auxiliary audio connectivity, steering-wheel-mounted audio controls, and multiple speakers throughout the cabin. The combination of entertainment and convenience technology makes this Pilot especially suitable for family use. ## Performance Features Honda equips this Pilot with a responsive 3.5-liter V6 paired with a smooth 5-speed automatic transmission. Its Variable Torque Management 4-wheel-drive system adds useful traction capability for changing road and weather conditions. Independent suspension, power-assisted steering, four-wheel disc brakes, stability control, and traction control contribute to composed handling and comfortable highway manners. ## Engine Type Power comes from Honda's 3.5-liter SOHC 24-valve V6 engine with i-VTEC technology and Variable Cylinder Management.
