Honda Pilot Depreciation & Resale Value

Honda Pilot keeps an estimated 59% of its original MSRP after 5 years — #237 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.

Per VINdown's modeling, the Honda Pilot retains an estimated 59% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #237 of 530 cars we track. That is roughly in line with the 58% five-year average for SUV in its class.

Most of the loss lands early: the Honda Pilot sheds about 6% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $42,395 it falls to around $24,885 by year five — a five-year loss near $17,510, about $9.59 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 4, a lightly-used Honda Pilot bought at 4 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
