Sport 4dr Front-Wheel Drive
2021 Honda Passport
The Passport is Honda's mid-size crossover SUV, slotting between the CR-V and Pilot. It's familiar, solid, smooth, and spacious, with a cabin that's nearly the same as the Pilot's despite the overall length being six inches shorter. It's not as adventurous as some rivals, and can't run off road with others, but its available 20-inch wheels and roof rails send some outdoorsy signals. The Passport uses the same 280-horsepower V-6 as the Pilot, mated to a 9-speed automatic transmission that can be indecisive. It's capable of climbing over rocks, although it's more comfortable traveling to the trail than riding along it.
The Passport seats five in two rows, and with ample cargo space when the rear seat is folded down.
The front-drive version of the Passport earns an EPA rating of 20 mpg city, 25 highway, 22 combined. With all-wheel drive, it drops by only 1 mpg. That's 1 or 2 mpg less than a couple of rivals, but 4 mpg better than the 4Runner.
The NHTSA gives the Passport five stars overall for safety, with four stars for frontal-impact protection. The IIHS calls its standard automatic emergency braking 'Superior'? and gives it 'Good'? scores in crash tests, save for the passenger-side small-overlap test, where it's rated 'Acceptable.'?
Standard safety equipment includes automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control and active lane control. The EX-L and above add blind-spot monitors.
