How much does the 2021 Honda Pilot cost?

Prices have softened 5.42% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 2,606 listings available, which gives you a solid pool of options to compare.

Is the 2021 Honda Pilot a good car?

Yes — the 2021 Honda Pilot earns a 4.86/5 user rating and a 7.17/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Form and function at 9/10.

Owners consistently praise its spaciousness, smooth ride, and range of features. They also value the technology and safety equipment, along with the overall value for a large SUV.

On the downside, the Pilot’s performance is fairly pedestrian, and the transmission can be irritating. Even so, the Pilot’s roomy cabin, straightforward technology, and family-friendly practicality make it a strong fit if you want a comfortable three-row SUV rather than flashy styling or especially lively acceleration.

With 34.0% of listings priced as good or great deals, you have room to shop carefully and still find a competitive offer.

Is the 2021 Honda Pilot reliable?

Owners rate it 4.86/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback points to a vehicle that feels spacious, smooth, and feature-rich, with many drivers describing it as a dependable family SUV that they can count on. The expert evaluation also emphasizes Honda’s reputation for a known quantity that is likely to last a long time and remain worth something when you move on.

Honda’s cost-effectiveness commentary reinforces that long-term ownership appeal, noting the brand’s reputation for reliability and resale value. For used buyers, the main risk is less about a single glaring flaw and more about making sure the specific example you choose has been maintained well and hasn’t been worn down by family-duty use.

What should I look for when buying a used 2021 Honda Pilot?

At 74.3% 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 careful inspection of body panels, paint consistency, tires, and suspension wear. Because this is a three-row family SUV, it also makes sense to focus on cabin condition, seat wear, and signs of heavy use in the second and third rows.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The lineup includes the base LX, the popular EX, the leather-lined EX-L, the Special Edition, the tech-equipped Touring, the upscale Elite, and the Black Edition. The base trim is the most stripped-down, while higher trims add features such as leather, wireless charging, a hands-free power tailgate, navigation, premium audio, and rear-seat entertainment.
• Powertrain: Every 2021 Pilot uses a 3.5-liter V6 with 280 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque, paired with a nine-speed automatic. Front-wheel drive is standard, and available torque-vectoring all-wheel drive can send up to 70 percent of engine output to a single rear wheel.
• Safety package: Honda Sensing is standard on every trim and includes adaptive cruise control, forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, and lane-keeping assist. Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic warning start with EX trim.
• Infotainment: Most models get an 8-inch touchscreen with Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, text-messaging support, satellite radio, and basic HondaLink. The Special Edition adds wireless phone charging, while Touring adds navigation, a WiFi hotspot, and a 10-speaker premium audio system.
• Fuel efficiency: The AWD model is rated at 22 mpg in combined driving, and the test vehicle averaged 21.5 mpg on the evaluation loop.

Which 2021 Honda Pilot trim should I buy?

The 2021 Honda Pilot is offered in 7 trim levels: LX, EX, EX-L, Special Edition, Touring, Elite, and Black Edition.

Here's the short version:

• LX: This is the entry point, so it makes sense if you want the Pilot’s core space, V6 power, and standard Honda Sensing without paying for extras.
• EX: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic warning on top of the standard safety suite.
• EX-L: Choose this if you want a more upscale cabin, since it adds leather-lined comfort and moves the Pilot closer to a family-hauler sweet spot.
• Special Edition: This trim adds black 20-inch alloy wheels, blacked-out exterior trim, wireless phone charging, and a hands-free power tailgate, making it a good pick if you want style and convenience together.
• Touring: This is the right choice if you want the biggest tech upgrade, including navigation, a WiFi hotspot, a 10-speaker premium audio system, rear-seat entertainment, and Cabin Talk.
• Elite: Pick this if you want the most upscale mainstream Pilot experience, with AWD standard and the highest-positioned feature set in the lineup.
• Black Edition: This is the fully loaded choice, with AWD standard and exclusive blacked-out styling details for shoppers who want the most distinctive appearance.

Honda Sensing is standard across the lineup, while blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic warning begin with EX trim.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2021 Honda Pilot?

This looks like a moderate market for selective buyers, so it pays to compare listings carefully and move quickly on strong examples.

• Deal availability: 34.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 2,606 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 5.42% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 74.3% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $24,743, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2021 Honda Pilot's resale value?

The current average of $25,332 sits slightly below last year's $26,783.

That softer pricing suggests the Pilot has become a bit more buyer-friendly in the used market, which can help you if you’re shopping now. For a future seller, it also means you should expect value to depend heavily on condition, mileage, and trim, since well-kept examples will stand out more clearly against the broader market.

The Pilot’s reputation for reliability and long-term usefulness should help support demand over time. Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.86/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2021 Honda Pilot safe?

The 2021 Honda Pilot earns a five-star overall rating from NHTSA despite four-star marks for front-passenger protection in a frontal impact. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety gives it its highest “good” ratings except for an “acceptable” score for front passenger small overlap frontal-impact protection, and the standard headlights also earn an “acceptable” rating while higher trims earn a “good” rating.

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

Honda Sensing is standard on every trim and includes adaptive cruise control, forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, and lane-keeping assist. Starting with EX trim, you also get blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic warning.

The main caveat is that the system uses an older version of Honda Sensing, and it is not especially smooth or refined in operation. The lane-departure warning’s steering wheel wobble is also more noticeable than subtle, so you may want to test those systems carefully on a drive.

Should I buy a 2021 Honda Pilot or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2021 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2021 if:

• 34.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 74.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 5.42% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.86/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It stands out for its roomy cabin, simple technology, and family-friendly practicality.

Consider the 2020 if:

• At $22,467, the 2020 costs less than the current year's $25,332 average.
• It offers tons of cargo space and an adult-friendly third row.

The bottom line: If you want the better-balanced shopping target, the 2021 is the stronger pick because it combines a softer market price with strong owner satisfaction and broad family appeal. If your priority is spending less up front, the 2020 is worth a look, especially if you find one in excellent condition with the features you want.
