How much does the 2017 Honda Pilot cost?

Prices have softened 6.03% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 2,349 listings available, which gives you a solid amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2017 Honda Pilot a good car?

Yes — the 2017 Honda Pilot earns a 4.77/5 user rating and a 7.17/10 expert rating. The model scores 8/10 across Look and feel, Performance, and Form and function.

Owners consistently praise its reliability, spaciousness, comfortable ride, and available AWD capability. The overview also frames it as a strong fit if you need a family-oriented SUV with plenty of passenger and cargo duty, even if it comes with some compromises in everyday ease. With 32.1% of listings marked as good or great deals, the market still gives you room to shop selectively.

Is the 2017 Honda Pilot reliable?

Owners rate it 4.77/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

Owner feedback repeatedly points to reliability, dependability, and a trouble-free ownership experience, with many drivers saying they feel confident counting on it over time. The expert review also reinforces that Honda’s reputation for dependability supports the Pilot’s expected longevity.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that a few known quirks can matter more as mileage climbs, so condition and maintenance history deserve close attention.

What should I look for when buying a used 2017 Honda Pilot?

At 60.3% 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 pre-purchase inspection, especially if you’re comparing multiple listings at similar prices. Focus on body condition, signs of prior repair, and how the vehicle drives, since the Pilot’s family-hauler role means wear can vary a lot from one example to the next.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The LX is the most basic version and lacks the HondaLink infotainment system and the Honda Sensing option package, while higher trims add more convenience and equipment.
• Powertrain: Every Pilot uses a 280-horsepower, 3.5-liter V6, with a 9-speed automatic on Touring and Elite models and a 6-speed automatic on lower trims; AWD is optional except on the Elite, where it is standard.
• Safety package: Honda Sensing is the driver-assistance suite, and it is available on every trim except the base LX; blind-spot warning and rear cross-traffic alert are reserved for the Elite.
• Infotainment: HondaLink includes an 8-inch display, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, HondaLink Assist, SiriusXM, Pandora, text-messaging support, extra USB ports, and a multi-view reversing camera.
• Fuel efficiency: The EPA says an AWD Pilot with the 9-speed automatic returns 22 mpg in combined driving, and the expert test loop returned 21.9 mpg.

Which 2017 Honda Pilot trim should I buy?

The 2017 Honda Pilot is offered in 5 trim levels: LX, EX, EX-L with leather, Touring, Elite.

Here's the short version:

• LX: This is the entry point, but it leaves out HondaLink and the Honda Sensing option package, so it makes the most sense only if you want the lowest possible price and can live with the bare essentials.
• EX: This is the first trim that can be equipped with Honda Sensing, making it the best-value choice if you want the Pilot’s core family-friendly setup without jumping too far up the price ladder.
• EX-L with leather: This trim adds a more upscale feel and is the better pick if you want a nicer cabin and available rear-seat entertainment for family use.
• Touring: This is the step-up choice for buyers who want the 9-speed automatic, big 20-inch wheels, rear entertainment, and a more fully equipped road-trip setup.
• Elite: This is the most loaded version, with standard AWD, heated and ventilated front seats, heated second-row captain’s chairs, and the most complete feature set.

Honda Sensing is available on every trim except the LX, but blind-spot warning and rear cross-traffic alert require the Elite.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2017 Honda Pilot?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 32.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 2,349 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 6.03% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 60.3% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $16,873, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2017 Honda Pilot's resale value?

The current average of $17,176 sits slightly below last year's $18,279.

That decline suggests the market has eased a bit, which can help you buy more confidently now if you plan to keep the vehicle for several years. For a future seller, the current pricing trend means you should expect a more measured resale environment rather than a rapid appreciation story.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.77/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2017 Honda Pilot safe?

The 2017 Honda Pilot earns a five-star crash-test rating from the federal government and a Top Safety Pick rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety; with Honda Sensing, that rating improves to a Top Safety Pick+.

It earns a 7/10 safety score from our experts.

Honda Sensing is the driver-assistance suite, and it is available on every trim except the base LX model. Standard availability includes the suite’s core collision-avoidance and driver-assistance technologies, while blind-spot warning and rear cross-traffic alert are limited to the Elite. The review also notes that Lane Watch is used instead on lower trims, and that system only covers the right side of the vehicle.

The expert review also flags that Honda Sensing can struggle in some road and traffic conditions, so you should treat it as helpful technology rather than a substitute for attentive driving.

Should I buy a 2017 Honda Pilot or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2017 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2017 if:

• 32.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 60.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 6.03% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.77/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The expert review says it’s a good choice for family duty, even if it has some quirks.

Consider the 2016 if:

• At $14,935, the 2016 costs less than the current year's $17,176 average.
• It blends SUV styling with a minivan-based family-hauler layout.

The bottom line: If you want the stronger current-market balance of price, inventory, and owner satisfaction, the 2017 is the better starting point. If your priority is spending less upfront, the 2016 is the more budget-friendly path and still delivers the Pilot’s core family-friendly appeal.
