He was impaled with a spear then a sword by Achilles, who proceded to drag him around on his chariot.
hector was actually only killed by Achilles' spear in the Iliad. Achilles would have actually had a much harder time in killing hector had pallas athene not come to Achilles' aid and returned his spear that he had just thrown at Hector, he did miss, Hector threw his spear and hit Achilles's shield but because it was made by Hephaustus, the god, it did not break through. Athene also brushed Hector's spear away from Achilles' on a previous encounter in the iliad. Athene saves Achilles from Hector and then Apollo saves hector.
Whilst it is true to say that overall Achilles' is the better warrior, he is not massively better than Hector. If you are to study the Iliad as i have done. you will learn from Achilles himself that, in events before the Iliad, Hector stood up to him alone and they fought a duel in which neither could kill the other. Again we learn from the Greeks when hector challenges them to a duel that they all fear him including Achilles. not one of the Greeks dares stand up to him until they are rebuked by menelaus and a greek elder.
but to really understand the greatest of hector we must see him outside of war, he is a reluctant soldier but defends Ilium because it is his duty, he is a loving father and caring father, he does not fight for his own glory or honour but for his men and those he loves. all other heroes in the iliad fight for themselves and their glory. they are often selfish and brutal. Achilles is the best example of this.
