<a href="http://www.autoblog.com/honda/">Honda</a> doesn't have any exciting new mechanical or aesthetic changes for the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/honda/pilot/">2015 Pilot</a> eight-passenger crossover, but it is adding a new trim level to give families a compromise between the EX and EX-L models.<br />
<br />
The new Special Edition trim is available on either the front-wheel or all-wheel drive versions of the Pilot, and it adds Pewter Gray aluminum wheels, a power moonroof, a rear seat entertainment DVD system and Sirius XM radio. Prices come to $33,950 for the two-wheel drive version, after the $830 destination charge, or $35,550 for all-wheel drive after destination.<br />
<br />
Prices for the rest of the trims are up $200 over last year, and they all still come standard with remote entry, a rearview camera and Class III trailer hitch. Power is still provided by a 3.5-liter V6 with 250 horsepower and 253 pound-feet of torque with a five-speed automatic. Fuel economy is unchanged as expected with front-wheel drive models rated at 18 miles per gallon city, 25 mpg highway and 21 mpg combined, and four-wheel drive models make 1 mpg less at 17 mpg city, 24 mpg highway and 20 mpg combined. <a href="/2014/06/03/honda-announces-2015-pilot-special-edition/#continued">Scroll down</a> to read the official release.<p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2014/06/03/honda-announces-2015-pilot-special-edition/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Honda announces 2015 Pilot Special Edition</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2014/06/03/honda-announces-2015-pilot-special-edition/">Honda announces 2015 Pilot Special Edition</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Tue, 03 Jun 2014 15:57:00 EST.
