Performance
The Standard 3.5L V6 Engine
Whether the bulk of your driving takes place within city limits or adventuring is a top priority, there's no denying that having an effective powertrain is necessary for both. The 2025 Honda Passport has one sole offering across all trims, ensuring that all customers have access to the same level of performance.

Honda's V6 is paired with a highly competent nine-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters, allowing for seamless shifting and optimum performance on and off the road. Despite the V6 exhibiting a discernible amount of power, fuel consumption is still fairly economical. Honda Passport owners can expect to achieve an EPA-estimated 19 MPG in the city and 24 MPG on the highway for a combined total of 21 MPG, which is excellent for an SUV geared towards off-road readiness.[b] Drivers who partake in recreational activities or light towing applications will be pleased that the Passport supports a tow rating of 5,000 lbs.

Aside from its performance attributes and stylish exterior design, the Passport boasts an interior that's just as exciting for prospective SUV owners.
Impressive Cargo Space
The Honda Passport provides comfortable seating for up to five passengers and a generous cargo capacity for an SUV of its size. Even with all five seats occupied, drivers will find 50.5 cu.ft. of room for provisions, groceries, and other items, almost three times the truck space of a typical four-door sedan (15 cu.ft.) For situations that require as much room as possible, over 100 cu.ft. of space can be made available behind the driver and front passenger seat. These items that relate to the practicality of the Honda Passport make it a good deal for average and family-oriented drivers alike.

The Passport comes standard with Tri-Zone Automatic Climate Control with Humidity Control and Air Filtration, ensuring that the environment inside stays agreeable even when the conditions aren't. All trims of the Passport also come with leather-trimmed and heated front seats, with the top trim receiving seats with built-in ventilation. The driver's seat also has lumbar support and a ten-way adjustable setting.
Infotainment and Connectivity
There's much more to the Honda Passport than its comfortable amenities and generous room for passengers and parcels. The modern driver looks for a means to stay connected with the apps they use daily and access modern technologies that enhance the time spent behind the wheel. Plenty of items are standard across all trims, making the ride enjoyable, informative, and entertaining.
All versions of the Honda Passport come with an 8-inch infotainment screen. The screen provides connectivity with Apple and Android products and allows wireless charging, which rarely comes standard on other SUVs. The Passport also provides access to Sirius XM and HD Radio, not to mention multiple USB ports for additional devices. All trims but the base feature satellite-linked navigation with voice recognition, and the top trim is comparable with a Wi-Fi hotspot, securing a connection no matter where your travels might take you.

All systems have speed-sensitive volume compensation and can stream audio via Bluetooth. With features that compensate for storage and comfort and keep drivers entertained on the road ahead, the 2025 Honda Passport provides drivers with everything they could ask for in their travels.
Safety
So far, we've examined the attributes of performance and the amenities and technologies that grace the interior of the 2025 Honda Passport. The vehicles' attributes of safety and driving assistance are far more important than these. Safety has always been the most important part of any vehicle you decide to own, and the Honda Passport is packed with many features to provide you with peace of mind. The Honda Passport comes standard with Honda Sensing, a comprehensive suite of features encompassing a broad range of items that provide oversight and an added layer of protection when and where needed most.
Road Departure Mitigation System (RDM)
Maintaining a proper position on the road is an important part of being a safe driver. If you drift from your position in your lane, alerts, assistive braking, and corrective steering will be engaged to return your vehicle to the proper position.
Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)
Driving on the highway at speeds in excess of 55mph and maintaining safe driving practices is an essential part of being a safe driver. LKAS assists you in maintaining your correct position over long stretches of highway driving.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
Maintaining a safe and proper distance from other vehicles preserves reaction time. Following at a safe distance when utilizing cruise control is imperative whenever you're driving on the highway, and this is where the advent of ACC comes into play. ACC monitors traffic patterns and adjusts the speeds of your Honda accordingly. The result is a safe distance between you and the other vehicles and the preservation of reaction time should something unexpected occur.
Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS)
CMBS is another item that's put in place to preserve reaction time and help prevent a potential collision. Operating through a combination of camera and radar-based technology, CMBS will alert you when a potential collision is detected and apply pressure to the brakes if necessary.
Honda vehicles are not only known for being safe, but the brand offers a multitude of features that come standard and aren't obscured by heavy price tags on trims. No matter which version of the Honda Passport you buy, you're ensured protection and peace of mind when and where it matters most.
