The 2016 Honda Pilot comes equipped with a variety of new advanced driver-assist technologies that have been designed to make your travel experience more smooth and hassle-free. In order to highlight all of these impressive new technologies, the brand has released a series of videos on their YouTube page that each focus on the capabilities of one of these new features. Below we have two of these videos for you and you can look out for some of the additional videos in future blogs. The first video below focuses on the Rain-Sensing Windshield Wipers that are available on the 2016 Pilot. These unique wipers have been designed to automatically adjust their speed based on the amount of rain detected on your windshield. Therefore, you can focus on your driving rather than on trying to properly adjust the speed and frequency of your windshield wipers the next time you get caught in the rain. The second video focuses on the Car Wash Mode that is available on the 2016 Honda Pilot Touring or Elite trims. This new model has been designed specifically for conveyer-style car washes where there is no driver inside the vehicle as it goes through the car wash. The video offers step-by-step instructions on how to put this mode into action should you need it when you drive one of these two models. Rain-Sensing Windshield Wipers: Car Wash Mode:
