9-Speed Automatic Transmission with Paddle Shifters (Touring and Elite)

What’s the Benefit?

Honda’s 9-speed automatic delivers exceptionally strong and smooth acceleration and immediate response—and raises the fuel-efficiency bar even higher. Plus, its paddle shifters offer the driver an even more engaging experience.

The Feature:

The higher Pilot trims feature a 9-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters.

• This remarkably compact unit provides even stronger acceleration while still allowing impressive EPA fuel-economy ratings as well.
• Response is enhanced by a shift-management program that allows multiple-gear downshifts when powerful thrust is called for.
• Paddle shifters let drivers take over the shifting decisions when they so desire.
• And the shift-by-wire system allows drivers to operate the transmission with push-button ease while freeing the console area of a shift lever.
