How much does the 2015 Honda Pilot cost?

Prices have softened 6.75% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 1,497 listings available, which gives you a solid amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2015 Honda Pilot a good car?

Yes — the 2015 Honda Pilot earns a 4.83/5 user rating and a 6/10 expert rating. The model scores 8/10 across Performance and Cost effectiveness.

Owners consistently praise the spacious interior, smooth ride, and family-friendly usefulness. The Pilot’s roomy 3-row layout and practical cabin flexibility make it especially appealing if you want a vehicle that can handle daily family duty without feeling cramped. At the same time, the feedback also points to fuel economy and engine power as common drawbacks, so it fits you best if space and utility matter more than quick acceleration or efficiency.

There are 32.0% good or great deals in the market, which suggests you can still find attractive pricing if you shop carefully.

Is the 2015 Honda Pilot reliable?

Owners rate it 4.83/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

User feedback points to a dependable, family-friendly SUV that many owners feel good about living with over time. The expert evaluation also notes average reliability and dependability expectations, which suggests the Pilot is more about steady everyday usefulness than standout durability bragging rights. Honda’s added roadside assistance for the first 3 years or 36,000 miles also helps ownership confidence a bit.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that age-related wear and maintenance history matter more here than in a newer SUV.

What should I look for when buying a used 2015 Honda Pilot?

At 58.2% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and pay close attention to any prior collision repairs, especially if you’re comparing multiple listings. A pre-purchase inspection is worth prioritizing because the Pilot’s age means condition can vary a lot from one example to the next. Focus on how well the cabin, drivetrain, and safety equipment have held up, since this model’s value depends heavily on getting a clean, well-kept example.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Touring trim gets unique wheels, while the EX, SE, and EX-L are called out as having better-looking wheels. The base-level feature set is also limited by the model’s age, so you should expect fewer modern conveniences than in newer SUVs.
• Powertrain: You get a 3.5-liter V6 with 250 hp and 253 lb-ft of torque, plus Variable Cylinder Management for better cruising efficiency. The 5-speed automatic and available 4-wheel-drive system are straightforward, and the Pilot is described as surprisingly quick and stable for its size.
• Safety package: The Pilot lacks features such as adaptive cruise control, collision warning, lane-departure warning, blind-spot monitoring, forward-collision warning, rear cross-traffic alert, and automatic emergency assistance. If those matter to you, this model year may feel dated.
• Infotainment: Touring models include Bluetooth, satellite radio, a hard-drive music-storage system, a rear-seat DVD entertainment system, a 115-volt power outlet, and video input jacks. The model does not offer smartphone connectivity or mobile-app services.
• Fuel efficiency: The expert test drive returned 18.3 mpg in mixed driving, below the EPA’s 20-mpg combined rating.

Which 2015 Honda Pilot trim should I buy?

The 2015 Honda Pilot is offered in 4 trim levels: EX, SE, EX-L, Touring.

Here's the short version:

• EX: This is the trim to start with if you want the Pilot’s core family-hauling strengths without paying for extra appearance or entertainment features. It keeps the focus on space and utility.
• SE: Choose this if you want a step up from the EX while staying on the practical side of the lineup. It makes sense if you want a little more equipment without chasing the top trim.
• EX-L: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it balances comfort and usefulness well. It should be your target if you want a more upscale feel without going all the way to the Touring.
• Touring: This is the most feature-rich version, with Bluetooth, satellite radio, a hard-drive music-storage system, and a rear-seat DVD entertainment system. Pick it if you want the most convenience and entertainment equipment the 2015 Pilot offers.

The safety content also makes clear that the Pilot lacks several modern driver-assistance features across the lineup, so trim choice won’t solve that gap.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2015 Honda Pilot?

This looks like a moderate buyer’s market, so you can be selective without waiting forever.

• Deal availability: 32.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,497 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 6.75% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 58.2% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $11,555, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2015 Honda Pilot's resale value?

The current average of $11,629 sits slightly below last year's $12,471.

That decline suggests the Pilot has already absorbed some of its depreciation, which can help you if you buy now and hold it for a while. For a future seller, the current pricing trend means there may be less downside left than there was a year ago, especially if you keep mileage and condition in check. Clean, well-maintained examples should remain easier to move than rougher ones because family buyers still value the Pilot’s space and practicality.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.83/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2015 Honda Pilot safe?

The 2015 Honda Pilot earns a Poor rating in the IIHS small overlap front test and four-star ratings overall from NHTSA.

It earns a 3/10 safety score from our experts.

The safety story here is mixed. On one hand, the Pilot does well in other IIHS crash tests, and the NHTSA overall rating is respectable. On the other hand, the Poor small overlap result is a major weakness, and the model also lacks several modern active-safety features that many shoppers now expect. The named driver-assistance suite you may want is not present here, including adaptive cruise control, collision warning, lane-departure warning, blind-spot monitoring, forward-collision warning, and rear cross-traffic alert.

Should I buy a 2015 Honda Pilot or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2015 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2015 if:

• 32.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 58.2% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 6.75% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.83/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2015 Pilot is a roomy, practical family SUV that still makes sense if you value space over modern tech.

Consider the 2014 if:

• At $10,943, the 2014 costs less than the current year's $11,629 average.
• It emphasizes space and utility for families who want practicality first.

Consider the 2016 if:

• At $14,873, the 2016 costs more than the current year's $11,629 average.
• It brings a redesigned package with stronger safety and infotainment appeal.

The bottom line: You should buy the 2015 if you want the best mix of price, space, and family usefulness, especially if you can find a clean example with a strong history. If you’re more price-sensitive, the 2014 can save you money, while the 2016 is the better path if you want newer safety and technology and are willing to pay more.
