How much does the 2018 Honda Pilot cost?

Prices have softened 8.26% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 2,492 listings available, which suggests you have a solid amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2018 Honda Pilot a good car?

Yes — the 4.67/5 user rating points to strong owner satisfaction. Drivers consistently praise its great value, spaciousness, and driving comfort, and many also like the rear entertainment system and roomy interior. For you, that makes it a strong fit if you want a family-focused midsize SUV with everyday practicality and comfort. With 35.7% of listings marked as good or great deals, there is still meaningful market opportunity if you shop carefully.

Is the 2018 Honda Pilot reliable?

Owners rate it 4.67/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The user feedback also describes it as reliable, with owners calling out its dependable nature and overall trouble-free ownership experience. That said, some drivers mention common mechanical issues such as emissions problems, so you should still pay close attention to maintenance records and inspection results. For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is buying a poorly maintained example rather than the model’s overall reputation.

What should I look for when buying a used 2018 Honda Pilot?

At 63.5% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report to confirm accident records, title status, and service history. Then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the listing price looks unusually attractive or the seller cannot document repairs. Focus on overall condition, because a clean-looking Pilot can still hide past damage or deferred maintenance.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2018 Honda Pilot?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer's market, so you can shop with some leverage if you compare listings carefully.

• Deal availability: 35.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 2,492 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 8.26% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 63.5% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $18,052, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2018 Honda Pilot's resale value?

The current average of $18,062 sits slightly below last year's $19,687.

That price movement suggests the market has cooled, which can help you buy at a better entry point today. For a future seller, it also means resale value may depend more on condition, mileage, and documentation than on broad market momentum. Well-kept examples should still hold buyer interest, but you should expect pricing pressure if the vehicle has accident history or visible wear.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.67/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Should I buy a 2018 Honda Pilot or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2018 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2018 if:

• 35.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 63.5% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 8.26% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.67/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.

Consider the 2017 if:

• At $16,826, the 2017 costs less than the current year's $18,062 average.
• It offers a practical, family-friendly focus with a comfortable ride and useful tech.

The bottom line: If you want the better-balanced shopping target, the 2018 is the stronger pick because it combines solid owner satisfaction with a softer price trend and broad inventory. If your priority is saving money upfront, the 2017 is the better value path, especially if you find one with clean history and strong maintenance records.
