2020 Honda Pilot vs. Acura MDX: Starting Price

One of the first things SUV drivers will look at is the starting price of the vehicle, and Pilot drivers will be glad to see that it has a much lower starting price when compared to the Acura MDX. Pilot customers won’t have to break the bank to get behind the wheel of the sedan they want, and even have extra left over to equip the Pilot with Honda accessories to make it all their own. Here are the starting prices of the Pilot LX and MDX:

Drivers are also drawn to these two popular SUVs because of their incredible size and interior to ensure that you’ll have room for everyone and everything to come along for the ride.
