About the Honda Passport

The most rugged addition to the growing family of Honda SUVs and crossovers, the Honda Passport delivers a unique blend of on-road driving refinement and off-road adventure capability in addition to best-in-class interior space. Slotting between the compact CR-V and three-row Pilot, the Honda Passport features a reinforced unibody frame, powerful direct-injected i-VTEC® V6 engine, and fully independent suspension. Tackle the kind of tough terrain normally reserved for less refined body-on-frame or off-road focused SUVs with the standard Honda i-VTM4™ torque-vectoring all-wheel drive and its four-mode Intelligent Traction Management system offered on the Passport. To suit the needs of any type of driver, the Passport is offered in three trims: the well-appointed EX-L, rugged TrailSport, and the fully equipped Black Edition.

What the Critics Say

Spacious, capable, and nicely equipped for the money, the Honda Passport hits its marks as a mid-size SUV. Sharing many of its mechanicals with the three-row Pilot and Ridgeline pickup, the Passport uses a familiar name from Honda’s 1990s lineup but is fully modern, with plenty of standard safety equipment and optional tech features.” — Car and Driver
The V6 delivers smooth and punchy acceleration. In Edmunds’ instrumented testing, the Passport covered 0-60 mph in 6.8 seconds, which is among the quickest in the class. At full throttle, the nine-speed transmission shifts quickly and efficiently. Steering wheel shift paddles are also on hand to give you manual control.” — Edmunds

What’s New for 2025

The rugged Honda Passport receives no changes for the 2025 model year. However, an all-new version is expected to debut in 2026. This means this could be your final opportunity to experience this particular generation of the Passport. Shop our extensive selection of Passport models right here at Honda East Cincinnati.

Honda Passport Styling

Rugged Styling

As the most rugged Honda light truck to date, the Passport is infused with bold styling elements which include higher ride height, a matte black grille, and blackout headlights. Off the trails, sophisticated around-town design cues on the Passport include LED headlight accents, gloss black trim, a “floating” C-pillar, and chrome exhaust finishers.

Offering far more than just good looks, you will experience improved functionality from 0.5 inches of additional ground clearance on front-wheel drive models and 1.1 inches on all-wheel drive Passport models as compared to the three-row Honda Pilot. Shorter overall length, shortened rear overhangs, and improved departure and breakover angles help illustrate the enhanced off-road capabilities of the Honda Passport.

Honda Passport Interior

Versatile Interior

Featuring a modern yet sophisticated look, the interior of the Honda Passport delivers spacious seating for up to 5 passengers along with class-leading passenger volume of 114.9 cubic feet and a best-in-class total interior volume of 157.1 cubic feet. Standard leather-trimmed upholstery featuring contrast stitching that varies by trim level further contributes to the upscale feel of the interior of the Passport.

Engineered for those living active lifestyles, the Passport has a maximum cargo capacity of 77.7 with the second-row seats folded flat. Easy-to-clean hard plastic surfaces allow you to carry mountain bikes or a week’s worth of camping equipment with ease. There’s even an underfloor storage compartment that provides 2.5 cubic feet of additional space with available removable and washable bins.

Honda Passport Display Audio System

Groundbreaking Technology & Safety

No matter where the journey takes you, the Honda Passport lets you stay connected with an 8-inch Display Audio touchscreen system with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ smartphone integration. If you consider yourself an audiophile, Passport Black Edition trims come with a 540-watt 10-speaker premium audio system that delivers exceptional clarity and depth to your favorite music. There’s even an available 4G LTE in-vehicle Wi-Fi TCU which has the ability to support up to seven devices along with a free 90-day/3GB trial period AT&T data plan. This system lets you access HondaLink® cloud-based services including maintenance tracking, appointment scheduling, and vehicle location services.
