Model guide

Honda Passport overview

Editorial context for design, cabin, performance, practicality, and buyer notes.

Design

The exterior of the new Passport adopts a much bolder, blockier aesthetic. It features wide fenders, a long hood, and a prominent black grille accented by a functional hood scoop. Standard LED headlights with distinct daytime running lights provide a strong visual signature, while the off-road-focused TrailSport trims swap standard lighting for unique amber daytime running lights. Functional elements include sturdy roof rails, an integrated rear spoiler, and a distinctive blacked-out rear roof section. These details contribute to the vehicle's aggressive, trail-ready stance, which is further supported by a generous 211 mm of ground clearance.

Interior

Inside, the Passport offers a spacious five-passenger cabin with noticeably increased rear legroom compared to its predecessor. Honda upgraded the material quality throughout the interior, incorporating soft-touch surfaces and a driver-focused ergonomic layout. A major update is the inclusion of standard Body Stabilizing Seats for the front row, designed to reduce fatigue on long trips. Higher trim levels add premium touches like ventilated front seats and a heated steering wheel. The dashboard is anchored by a new 10.2-inch fully digital instrument cluster, integrating modern tech like Google Built-in, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto.

Performance

Power comes from a naturally aspirated 3.5-liter V6 engine producing 285 horsepower and 355 Nm of torque. This V6 is now paired exclusively with a new 10-speed automatic transmission, replacing the older 9-speed unit to provide smoother and more responsive shifting. The standard i-VTM4 torque-vectoring all-wheel-drive system has also been refined to improve traction and handling dynamics on mixed surfaces. This powertrain combination allows the Passport to maintain strong acceleration and confident off-road capability.

Practicality

As a two-row midsize SUV measuring 4841 mm in length and 2019 mm in width, the Passport provides substantial cabin volume and cargo space. The wide stance and long 2891 mm wheelbase contribute to passenger comfort and highway stability. The standard roof rails expand carrying capacity for outdoor gear, making the vehicle highly suitable for active families and everyday errands.

Safety and tech

The Passport is equipped with the latest generation of the Honda Sensing suite, which uses upgraded cameras and radar with a wider field of view to better detect hazards and obstacles. For off-road maneuvering, the TrailSport trim specifically includes the TrailWatch system. This feature utilizes multiple exterior cameras to give the driver a detailed view of the terrain immediately surrounding the vehicle, allowing for safer navigation of difficult trails.

Buyer notes

When comparing Passport models, buyers should note the strong standard equipment list, which includes the V6 engine, 10-speed automatic, and i-VTM4 all-wheel drive across all trims. The TrailSport trim is the standout for outdoor enthusiasts due to its specific off-road hardware, amber DRLs, and the TrailWatch camera system. If maximum interior luxury is the priority, upper trims offer ventilated seating and a heated steering wheel. Note that exact trim names, packages, and feature availability may vary by regional market.
