Highlights of the 2026 Honda Passport
When the Honda team set out to reimagine the 2026 Passport, they had adventuring in mind. This is seen throughout the updated SUV, but particularly in the TrailSport and brand-new TrailSport Elite trims. In fact, Honda has expressed that the TrailSport is specifically designed for off-road excursions; this is thanks to its increased ground clearance, specialized off-road suspension, and unique all-terrain tires.
At the same time, Honda ensured all your friends and family could join you in the action by making the Passport have exceptional passenger and cargo space. Even better, its new lineup of accessories boasts a wider selection than ever before, including the reintroduction of the fan-favorite stowable picnic table!
Going Off-Road in the 2026 Passport
Camping and trail riding are more popular than ever, which is why Honda's focus on adventure when redesigning the 2026 Passport makes sense. Families and friends alike are looking to improve their work-life balance by leaving it all behind and enjoying their weekends. Honda has also made the transition from commuting to adventuring easier by ensuring the Passport is equipped with everything it needs from the get-go. In other words, the Passport's rugged design and capabilities blend seamlessly with everyday ride comfort, allowing you to go wherever and whenever you want.
Of course, if you want to take full advantage of what this revamped SUV offers, you will want to focus on either the TrailSport or TrailSport Elite trims. Some of the specific features you will find when looking at these two trims include the noted off-road-tuned suspension and all-terrain tires, as well as steel skid plates and recovery hooks. For the TrailSport Elite, you will also enjoy the available TrailWatch camera system with tire path graphics to help you navigate more readily.
On the inside of these two trims, you will find unique design features available, such as easy-to-clean synthetic leather, all-season floor mats, exclusive orange contrast stitching, and a sliding panoramic sunroof for the TrailSport trim. For the TrailSport Elite, perforated leather seating, ventilated front seats, rear door shades, and a heated steering wheel are just a few of the amenities you can enjoy.
Last but not least, Honda's signature i-VTM4 all-wheel drive system allows the 2026 Passport to produce up to 40% more torque and a 30% faster response time, which maximizes available traction. Essentially, this means that 70% of the engine's torque can be applied to the rear axle, with 100% of that torque distributed to either the left or right wheel. Furthermore, seven available drive modes make it easy to handle whatever road conditions come your way.
Cruising the City in the 2026 Passport
You might wonder what the Passport offers when you're not on the trails and why it's a great choice for families in general. First of all, this model has a significant amount of passenger and cargo space. Combine that with a clutter-free and well-designed interior (thanks to multiple storage cubbies), and you begin to get the picture; these cubbies can be found throughout the interior and include two-tier door bins, a large multi-use tray at the front of the vehicle, and a console bin that's big enough for a tablet computer, and more. Additionally, there are ten cupholders across the cabin, six of which can hold 32-ounce water bottles.
Regarding cargo space, the 2026 Passport has the most amount of room that this model has ever offered, with up to 83.5 cu.ft. behind the first row and up to 44 cu.ft. behind the second row. Additionally, there is a large underfloor storage area you can utilize. This cargo combo is perfect whether you're hauling soccer gear or luggage for a road trip.
In addition to space, the 2026 Passport is also technology-savvy. There's a 10.2-inch digital instrument display as well as a 12.3-inch touchscreen display. Via the latter, you can access Google Built-In and connect compatible phones to either Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. Meanwhile, the smaller display keeps you informed regarding things like fuel economy and tire pressure; if you've opted for the TrailSport or TrailSport Elite trims, you will also find elevation, pitch, and off-road readouts on this display to help you navigate the trails.
You will also find that the Passport is quite powerful, as it is equipped with a 3.5L V6 engine that delivers up to 285 hp and 262 lb-ft of torque. Additionally, it can tow up to 5,000 lbs if you plan to haul a small trailer, camper, or boat on your adventures. It's also worth noting that the latest Passport gets impressive performance; although its rugged nature might make it seem stiff, this model actually gets responsive handling and a car-like ride thanks to its MacPherson struts and an all-new rear multilink suspension. Plus, the addition of sound-absorbing tech provides a quiet ride from the first mile to the last.
Finally, whether you and your kin are headed to the trails or staying on paved roads, you want the vehicle you choose to be safe. Honda understands this and has long prioritized safety throughout its lineup, including the 2026 Passport. You will find an extensive list of driver assistance features that keep you centered in your lane and aware of changes in traffic, among other things. Our team is happy to review these features and any other amenities with you to ensure you find the best fit.
