How much does the 2020 Honda Pilot cost?

Prices have softened 7.70% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 2,482 listings available, which gives you a solid pool of options to compare.

Is the 2020 Honda Pilot a good car?

Yes — the 2020 Honda Pilot earns a 4.7/5 user rating and an 8.00/10 expert rating.

The model scores 9/10 across Form and function and Safety.

Owners consistently praise its spacious interior, comfortable ride, responsive handling, performance, and fuel efficiency. The Pilot also stands out for everyday usefulness, especially if you want real third-row space and a family-friendly layout.

The main trade-offs are its unintuitive technology and interior materials that feel cheap. It’s a strong fit if you want a practical three-row SUV for family duty, but less compelling if you care most about polished cabin execution or the latest tech feel.

Only 36.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals, so you should still compare carefully before jumping on the first one you see.

Is the 2020 Honda Pilot reliable?

Owners rate it 4.7/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

Owners describe it as dependable in day-to-day use, with praise centered on its comfortable, trouble-free ownership experience, spacious cabin, and strong real-world usability. The feedback also points to a vehicle people feel they can count on for family transportation and regular commuting.

The V6 powertrain is described as stout and well suited to real-world driving, which supports confidence in long-term use. Honda also gives the Pilot a refined, comfortable ride that should age well for buyers who prioritize easy commuting and road trips.

The available 9-speed automatic is the more efficient setup, and that can help reduce operating costs over time. For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is less about outright capability and more about whether the cabin tech and controls still feel acceptable to you after living with them.

What should I look for when buying a used 2020 Honda Pilot?

At 70.4% 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 careful inspection of body panels, paint consistency, and signs of prior repair. Because the listing pool includes a notable number of vehicles with accident history, condition matters as much as mileage and trim.

Pay close attention to how the cabin functions in daily use, especially the controls and infotainment layout. Since this model’s biggest weaknesses are in technology and interior materials, you’ll want to make sure the specific vehicle you’re considering still feels clean, intact, and easy to live with.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The LX is the most basic version, with 18-inch alloy wheels, remote keyless entry, push-button start, power locks, and power windows. The EX is the recommended starting point because it adds remote start, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, LED fog lights, Smart Entry, tri-zone climate control, a 10-way power driver’s seat, and heated front seats. The EX-L adds leather upholstery, a power liftgate, a power moonroof, second-row in-door sunshades, and a 4-way power front passenger’s seat. Touring adds 20-inch alloy wheels, integrated roof rails, blue ambient interior lighting, an upgraded stereo, and courtesy approach lights. Elite adds power-folding side mirrors with integrated turn signals, a panoramic sunroof, a heated steering wheel, and heated and ventilated front seats. Black Edition adds unique black-painted wheels, black exterior paint, black grille and accents, and nearly the same content as Elite.
• Powertrain: Every trim uses a 3.5-liter V6 with 280 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque. LX, EX, and EX-L use a 6-speed automatic, while Touring, Elite, and Black Edition use a 9-speed automatic that provides more refined acceleration and should help fuel economy. Front-wheel drive is standard, with all-wheel drive available.
• Safety package: HondaSensing is standard and includes forward-collision avoidance, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high beams. Front and side-impact airbags, child-seat anchors, Vehicle Stability Assist, and traction control are also standard. Blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert and front and rear parking sensors are optional.
• Infotainment: The LX gets a 5-inch color LCD screen, a 215-watt 7-speaker stereo with subwoofer, Bluetooth, and a USB port. All other trims get an 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. HD Radio, SiriusXM, and Cabin Control Remote Capability are included on all but the LX. Navigation, rear-seat entertainment, and a wall-style power outlet are optional on EX-L and standard on Touring, Elite, and Black Edition. Touring, Elite, and Black Edition also get a 590-watt 10-speaker premium audio system and mobile hotspot capability, while Elite and Black Edition add wireless charging.
• Fuel efficiency: The most efficient setup is the front-wheel-drive 9-speed configuration at 20 mpg city, 27 highway, and 23 combined. With all-wheel drive, that setup returns 19 mpg city, 27 highway, and 22 combined. The 6-speed front-wheel-drive setup returns 19 mpg city, 26 highway, and 22 combined, while the 6-speed all-wheel-drive setup returns 18 mpg city, 26 highway, and 21 combined.

Which 2020 Honda Pilot trim should I buy?

The 2020 Honda Pilot is offered in 6 trim levels: LX, EX, EX-L, Touring, Elite, and Black Edition.

Here's the short version:

• LX: This is the least expensive way into the Pilot, but it is also the most stripped-down. You get the basics, yet you miss out on the more desirable convenience and tech upgrades that make the Pilot easier to live with every day.
• EX: This is the best-value trim. It adds the features most shoppers will actually notice, including Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, remote start, heated front seats, tri-zone climate control, and Smart Entry.
• EX-L: Choose this if you want a more upscale family SUV feel. Leather upholstery, a power liftgate, and a moonroof make it a stronger comfort pick without jumping too far up the price ladder.
• Touring: This trim is for you if you want more luxury and convenience, including the upgraded stereo, roof rails, ambient lighting, and the more efficient 9-speed automatic.
• Elite: This is the most comfort-focused version, with a panoramic sunroof, heated and ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and power-folding mirrors.
• Black Edition: Pick this if you want the Elite’s equipment with a darker appearance package and unique styling details.

HondaSensing is standard across the lineup, so you do not need to move up for the core safety suite.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2020 Honda Pilot?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you have room to shop carefully.

• Deal availability: 36.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 2,482 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.70% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 70.4% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $22,467, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2020 Honda Pilot's resale value?

The current average of $22,467 sits slightly below last year's $24,342.

That decline suggests the Pilot has become more affordable for used buyers, which can make it easier to move later if you buy at the right price. For a future seller, the key is entering ownership at a sensible number so depreciation has less room to work against you.

The Pilot’s broad family appeal and strong owner satisfaction help support demand, especially for well-kept examples with clean history and desirable equipment. Higher-trim versions with the right features may also be easier to market to shoppers looking for a ready-to-use three-row SUV.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.7/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2020 Honda Pilot safe?

The Honda Pilot earns a five-star overall crash test rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). It also earns the best crash test score of Good from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

HondaSensing is standard, and it includes forward-collision avoidance, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high beams. Standard safety equipment also includes front and side-impact airbags, child-seat anchors, Vehicle Stability Assist, and traction control.

If you want blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert or front and rear parking sensors, you need to look for a vehicle equipped with those optional features. The core safety package is strong, but some convenience-oriented driver aids are not standard.

Should I buy a 2020 Honda Pilot or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2020 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2020 if:

• 36.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 70.4% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.70% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.7/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It combines a roomy third row, strong standard safety, and a powerful V6.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $25,332, the 2021 costs more than the current year's $22,467 average.
• It emphasizes quality, utility, comfort, and driving enjoyment.

The bottom line: You should lean toward the 2020 if you want the better value and are comfortable shopping carefully for condition and history. If you can stretch your budget and want a newer model-year alternative, the 2021 is the cleaner upgrade path, but the 2020 remains the smarter pick for price-sensitive buyers who still want a roomy, well-equipped three-row SUV.
