Story

Honda is launched their redesigned Pilot SUV with a multimedia campaign featuring a 30-second spot to bring attention to the vehicle's smart and stylish utility.

"Road Trip" stars eight family and friends in the roomy Pilot, zooming down a stretch of desert highway. When one of the boys in the third row hits the note of a well-know song and the other passengers follow one by one, adding drum beats and sound effects until they're jamming with the full force of the tune.
