Honda Passport 2025

The 2025 Honda Passport receives a fresh face designed to make it tougher and more sophisticated inside. Honda continues to make the Passport the go-getter sibling of its SUV family, adding to that the redesigned, bold front fascia, new wheel diameters, and increased off-road capability on some trims.

Most significantly, the TrailSport trim gets big upgrades this year in the way of improved ground clearance, reworked all-terrain tires, and underbody skid protection. On the inside, you’ll find new technology, improved seat materials, and a new infotainment system with faster response time. Honda Passport 2025

All 2025 Passports feature Honda’s renowned 3.5-liter V6 engine. It produces a robust 280 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission.

Aggressive acceleration and smooth cruising are the consequences of this V6 combination, whether passing traffic on the highway or climbing a mountain grade. There’s no turbo lag or hesitation — only responsive, on-demand power just right for everyday driving and light towing. Honda Passport 2025

Yes, and even more so in 2025. The TrailSport trim has been tuned for real off-roading employment. It’s fitted with bigger tires, beefier suspension, and improved all-wheel-drive calibration for muck or rutted terrain. Not a hard-core rock climber, but it navigates trails, snow, and dirt roads with aplomb.

All AWD Passports are also fitted with Intelligent Traction Management, which enables you to switch between drive modes like Snow, Sand, or Mud. It’s perfect for drivers who want a more capable vehicle than a typical crossover without sacrificing comfort. Honda Passport 2025

The Passport achieves a nice compromise between SUV toughness and on-road driving comfort. On its unibody platform with independent suspension, it handles more like a car than a truck-based sport utility vehicle. Riding is smooth, even over rough pavement, and cornering is sure without excessive body roll.

The 9-speed transmission has also been lightly retuned to provide smoother gear shifts, especially under low-speed conditions. The Passport offers a quiet, calm, and stable ride for commuting, carpooling, and road-tripping. Honda Passport 2025

Space is also one of the Passport’s biggest draws. With two rows and no third row sacrificing cargo room, it offers 50.5 cubic feet behind the second row, and up to 100.7 cubic feet with the seats folded. That beats most midsize SUVs — perfect for camping gear, sports gear, or even a bike.

There is ample and comfortable seating space for front and rear-seat passengers. There’s plenty of legroom and headroom in back for adults, and the rear seats recline for extra comfort on extended road trips. It’s a practical SUV that doesn’t feel cramped anywhere. Honda Passport 2025

Tech-savvy, the 2025 Passport improves where it matters. You get a larger 10.2-inch touchscreen with fresher software to provide more fluid operation, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard, and an updated digital instrument cluster with simpler graphics and more personalization options.

Higher trims also feature built-in navigation, wireless charging for mobile phones, and a premium 10-speaker audio system. Honda added more USB-C outlets across the cabin so all can be easily charged and connected. Honda Passport 2025

All Passports feature Honda Sensing®, Honda’s entire lineup of active safety features. These include:

A:

Collision Mitigation Braking

B:

Road Departure Mitigation

C:

Adaptive Cruise Control

D:

Lane Keeping Assist

E:

Forward Collision Warning

Blind Spot Monitoring and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (now standard on all trims)

Thanks to strong crash ratings and solid build, the Passport remains well-regarded for its safety. It’s a top pick for families or anyone who values driver assistance features and reassurance. Honda Passport 2025

The 2025 Passport has decent fuel economy for its size and V6 drivetrain. You can expect to get around 20 MPG city and 25 MPG highway with the all-wheel-drive model. Front-wheel-drive models can stretch the numbers a little further.

It’s not a hybrid, but it compensates for that with robust performance, improved towing capacity, and a more traditional driving experience. If fuel economy is your number-one concern, the CR-V Hybrid or future Honda electrics could be the way to go. But for an even-keel SUV, the Passport gets the job done. Honda Passport 2025

Yes. Properly outfitted, the 2025 Honda Passport can pull 5,000 pounds (with AWD models). That’s enough to tow a small trailer and/or camper and/or boat with ATVs. Sway is kept in line through trailer stability assist, and the powertrain is steadfast even when trailed.

It also includes roof rails and a massive cargo opening, so it’s perfect for carrying kayaks, skis, or bicycles. If you’re headed to the lake or hauling equipment for a weekend job, the Passport is a great sidekick. Honda Passport 2025

The Passport is perfect for:

Weekend warriors and active drivers who want off-road ability but don’t want to commit to an SUV

Four- or five-person families who don’t need the third row but want more room than a compact SUV

Commute-only drivers who prioritize V6 power and space over turbocharged 4-cylinder setups

Hikers, campers, or frequent travelers who want an SUV that can handle the trail and parking lots

Shoppers who want the rugged look with smooth, day-to-day driving

It’s a “just-right” SUV for people who need more than a CR-V but don’t want to venture so large (or expensive) as the Honda Pilot. Honda Passport 2025
