Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
Decent driving range,

Pros
Long list of standard features
Offers a lot of the latest technology and driver assist features
Smooth ride and quiet cabin
Relatively roomy cargo area

Cons
Doesn't provide much excitement from behind the wheel
Front seat padding is a bit too firm for ideal comfort

By: 
edmunds.com

Pros
Roomy first- and second-row seating
Lots of cargo space and interior storage spots>
Easy-to-use control

Cons
Standard touchscreen interface is too small
Third-row seating is cramped for adults
Lackluster acceleration and braking performance

By: 
edmunds.com

Pros
Refined powertrain,
actually capable TrailSport model,
just as family-friendly as the last version.

Cons
City fuel economy could be better,
entry-level infotainment display is dinky,
Honda's Odyssey minivan remains the more practical choice.
