How much does the 2014 Honda Pilot cost?

Prices have softened 3.35% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 784 listings available, which suggests you should have a reasonable number of options to compare.

Is the 2014 Honda Pilot a good car?

Generally — 4.4/5. The expert rating is 6.8/10, and the model scores 8/10 across Performance, Cost effectiveness, and Safety. Owners repeatedly praise its spacious seating, comfort, and reliability, and the Pilot’s family-first layout makes it a strong fit if you need room for passengers and cargo more than style or tech. That said, the market still shows 29.5% good or great deals, so you can shop selectively and still find value.

Is the 2014 Honda Pilot reliable?

Owners rate it 4.4/5, a solid signal of long-term satisfaction. Review feedback points to reliability, comfort, and a trouble-free ownership experience as recurring strengths, and the expert assessment also notes that reliability is expected to be better than average. Honda’s cost-effectiveness notes reinforce that expectation, with ownership costs described favorably and maintenance burden kept in check by the Pilot’s simpler feature set. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that age and mileage can expose wear-related issues, so condition matters more than the badge.

What should I look for when buying a used 2014 Honda Pilot?

At 54.5% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a thorough pre-purchase inspection, especially if the listing price looks unusually attractive. Focus on signs of prior body damage, uneven panel gaps, tire wear, and any evidence of rough shifting or neglected maintenance. Because this model is valued for practicality more than flash, condition and service history matter a lot.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The LX is the least expensive version and is the most basic, while the EX adds 18-inch aluminum wheels, a 10-way power driver’s seat, remote keyless entry, and a security system. The EX-L adds leather seats, heated front seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a power sunroof, and a power tailgate, while the Touring adds navigation, a rear-seat entertainment system, a premium audio system, memory for the driver’s seat, and unique wheels.
• Powertrain: Every version uses a 3.5-liter V6 with 250 hp and a 5-speed automatic transmission. Variable Cylinder Management helps conserve fuel, and available 4WD adds traction management with a Lock mode for low-speed conditions.
• Safety package: Honda’s ACE body structure is standard, and the Pilot includes a basic reversing camera. The safety content also notes that the model lacks many modern driver-assistance features, and those gaps are most noticeable on lower trims.
• Infotainment: Standard equipment includes Bluetooth, a USB port, triple-zone climate control, and a basic reversing camera. Higher trims add navigation, an upgraded camera, rear-seat DVD entertainment, video input jacks, and a premium sound system.
• Fuel efficiency: The Pilot is rated at 17 mpg city, 24 highway, and 20 combined with 4WD, and fuel economy improves by 1 mpg in each environment without 4WD. In real-world use, the expert review recorded 18.9 mpg in mixed driving.

Which 2014 Honda Pilot trim should I buy?

The 2014 Honda Pilot is offered in 4 trim levels: LX, EX, EX-L, Touring.

Here's the short version:

• LX: This is the value entry point if you mainly want the Pilot’s space and utility at the lowest price. It keeps the basics and is the trim to choose if you care more about affordability than convenience features.
• EX: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds useful everyday equipment like a power driver’s seat, keyless entry, and a security system without jumping too far in price.
• EX-L: Choose this if you want the Pilot to feel more family-friendly and comfortable, thanks to leather, heated front seats, a sunroof, and a power tailgate.
• Touring: This is the right pick if you want the most equipment, including navigation, rear-seat entertainment, premium audio, and memory seating.

The safety content also notes that the Pilot lacks many modern driver-assistance technologies, so even higher trims do not fully close that gap.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2014 Honda Pilot?

The market looks moderately favorable if you’re a selective buyer.

• Deal availability: 29.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 784 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 3.35% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 54.5% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $10,654, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2014 Honda Pilot's resale value?

The current average of $10,752 sits slightly below last year's $11,124.

That softer pricing suggests the Pilot is still a value-oriented used SUV, which can help keep it attractive to budget-minded buyers. For a future seller, that also means you may need to price competitively to move the vehicle quickly. The good news is that steady owner satisfaction can support demand, especially for a model known for space and practicality.

Vehicles with solid owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.4/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2014 Honda Pilot safe?

The 2014 Honda Pilot earns a four-star overall rating from NHTSA, and the IIHS called it a Top Safety Pick.

It earns an 8/10 safety score from our experts.

Honda’s ACE body structure is designed to help disperse crash energy away from the passenger compartment, and the Pilot’s crash-test results are a clear strength for the year. The tradeoff is that the model lacks many modern driver-assistance technologies, so you should not expect the kind of active safety suite found in newer family SUVs. The safety content also notes that the IIHS result did not include the tougher small-overlap frontal-impact test.

Should I buy a 2014 Honda Pilot or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2014 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2014 if:

• 29.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 54.5% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 3.35% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.4/5 — a solid satisfaction signal.
• Expert summary: It is a spacious, practical family SUV that prioritizes usefulness over modern tech.

Consider the 2015 if:

• At $11,651, the 2015 costs more than the current year's $10,752 average.
• It remains a spacious 3-row family SUV, but the design is aging and the tech gap persists.

The bottom line: If you want the lower-priced, value-focused choice, the 2014 makes sense. If you can spend more and want a slightly newer version of the same basic formula, the 2015 is the alternative to compare.

How does the 2014 Honda Pilot compare to the 2014 Toyota Highlander?

Our experts score the 2014 Honda Pilot 6.8/10 and the 2014 Toyota Highlander 8.7/10. The Highlander is the stronger overall pick on expert scoring, while the Pilot is the cheaper used buy by a wide margin. The Pilot offers more listings and a lower average price, but the Highlander shows a slightly better deal share and accident-free share. If you want maximum value and space, the Pilot is compelling; if you want the stronger all-around package, the Highlander has the edge.
