Performance and Engineering
Built on the same platform as the new Honda Pilot, the 2026 Honda Passport is powered by a 3.5-liter V6 engine, delivering 285 horsepower and 355 Nm of torque, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. All-wheel drive (AWD) comes standard, enhancing both on-road stability and off-road performance.
Unlike its predecessor, which was essentially a shortened version of the Pilot, the new Passport features a more distinct design and a refined AWD system, making it more capable on rough terrain. While it may not be the most powerful off-road SUV, it offers a balanced mix of comfort, technology, and ruggedness, catering to a broad range of buyers looking for a reliable adventure-ready vehicle.
