Great mini-pilot

Have had this 2022 Passport for almost 5 months and love it. It is roomy, responsive, has a huge cargo area and is gorgeous. I actually had an adult male walk along side me at Lowes taking pictures. Fuel economy is about what I expected and it handles like a dream. Great a/c and heating and the infotainment system took a bit of fiddling, but now it works well. Really miss the c/d player from my 2016 CRV, though.

Purchased a 2022 Honda Passport Trailsport about 6 months and 4500 miles ago. So, far, it's great; everything I thought it would be: Power - Plenty for what it is. Took a while to get used to 9 speed transmission; I've owned Accords in the past with 6 speed. It's fine now. Comfort - Excellent; the seats are great Noise - Surprisingly quiet for an SUV; I hate road noise, this delivers. Technology - Fine; I'm a 60 year old man so I don't like technology "overdone." Gas mileage - As advertised; I agree with other reviews; you'll probably have to get a 4 cylinder something if you want 30+MPG Dislikes - Pushbutton transmission. Minor but I miss a gearshift. This vehicle has 4500 miles to it, so far no issues at all. Also-my dealer experience was great; they did go thru the routine "extended warranty", etc., but they were polite about it, no pressure at all. Update: I now have 15K miles on this Honda. I still like it a lot - zero issues so far. A friend of mine also has a 2022, (an EX-L), he complains that it's "boring." That's true, actually, but that's exactly what I was looking for. I want reliability, cargo room, decent power & MPG. This Passport delivers.

Exceeds Expectation

I recently purchased the 2022 Honda Passport Trailsport which has exceeded my expectations in several ways. First, after reading several reviews I wasn't sure if I should buy one. Most of the reviewers were saying all of the trim levels essentially had the same drivetrain/ground clearance and suitability for "light off-roading". While that is *primarily* true there are some notable differences. For instance, the Trailsport has 18-inch wheels which are better for going off road. The EX-L and Elite trims have 20-inch wheels. The Trailsport also has roof rails, fog lights, and navigation. These items aren't offered on the base trim. The rails are important if you plan to mount something to your roof, and fog lights are useful in bad weather. The price difference between the EX-L and Trailsport is actually 2500.00 because most EX-L's are delivered to dealerships with AWD. Lots of reviewers put the difference between the base model (EX-L) and TS at about five grand. That's an accurate figure if the EX-L is FWD. I'm providing these details because I didn't have this information when I began my search. For me, it would have been useful because I do plan to do some light off-roading and camping. The Trailsport was the right trim for me though you can't go wrong with the EX-L because it too is a good value.

I've only had my Passport Trailsport for a couple weeks and 800 miles, but so far it has been the perfect vehicle! Tons of room passenger room and cargo space. We are a family of 3 and not too far from being empty nesters, so have no need for a 3rd row. I'm coming from an F150 crew cab and don't feel like I'm giving up all that much passenger space, at least in the front. I'm pleased with the improvement in ride and handling. It drives silky smooth, plenty of power, handles nice. Living in Georgia, I've had limited opportunity to test the AWD. However, we did get a little snow last weekend and I decided to take it down (and back up) a snowy, muddy, rather steep hill on the back of my property and didn't get stuck!! For what it is, fuel economy isn't bad! It easily gets the EPA rating and probably a little better if you're careful. Again, coming from a V8 F150, so I welcome the extra 5-6 MPG. If you want to knock down 30 mpg in an SUV, you'll need to sacrifice the space and powerful V6 and look for a small 4 banger. The only negatives I have found so far include: The push button gear selector is taking some getting used to, however it's not quite as bad as I was anticipating. The wireless charging pad is a bit temperamental, You have to place your phone on it just right or else it'll quit charging after a few seconds. But, it doesn't matter much since my next complaint is lack of wireless Apple Car Play! You'd think for the 2022 model year this would become virtually standard, but it's not an option unfortunately! I've found the adaptive cruise control isn't quite as smooth as some other vehicles I've driven. Even on the most loose setting, it still feels like it wants to slow you down faster than necessary. All those things are relatively minor compared to all the good! It's been quite awhile since I've been this happy with a car!

Good Vehicle with Some Annoyances.

Had as a rental in California for one week. Had 41K on it... put 700 miles on it. 2022 Touring. Here's what I liked: Commodious cargo area behind rear seats, with sliding rear seats to make the cargo area even bigger. Huge console storage. Good visibility. Easy to drive. Usually enough power. Here's what I found annoying: You feel too much vibration from roads that aren't smoothly paved and it rides hard over bumps (truckish in fact)... because the stylish rims are just too large. Is it really necessary to have 20 or 21 inch rims on an SUV when 18 or 19 will do the job? This is an SUV, not a sports car. I know that lower profile tires help the car handle better, but I need to NOT feel the road so much either!!! The seats are probably comfortable for most people... but I wasn't a fan and I'm not a fan of Honda seats or most Japanese car seats in general. These are wide, which is great, but they are also short which is good for short people but not long-legged people like me. And the thigh support is firm but the butt cushion part was too saggy and weak which can cause pain in a long drive. As usual with Hondas, while the passenger seat is power, no height adjustment is included. Cheapskates! Not a fan of push button transmissions. Each manufacturer now is reinventing what did not need to be reinvented, and doing it their own way. So every time you switch cars, you have to relearn. The Drive button was right next to the "snow" button. So sometimes I would turn on "snow" mode. Honda placed the paddle shifters extremely close to the steering wheel and also next to the turn signal stalk. A bunch of times I accidentally down-shifted in traffic hearing the engine roar and the first couple of times I had no idea what to do... keep hitting the paddles until it went away. I owned a Subaru Outback with paddle shifters and I NEVER accidentally hit them. The controls for the trip meter, radio and infotainment were much more confusing than they need to be. Compass direction and some other info, too small and hard to see on the infotainment screen. When I plugged into Apple car play it would show just a symbol on the screen and I couldn't see my trip meter. And no time elapsed driving is shown with the trip meter. I just didn't like the placement and logic of things. I averaged low 20s for highway and high teens for light around town driving. Power going up grades was adequate, but could be better. I liked this Passport for its roominess and cargo. If it was available as a hybrid, had smaller rims for a smoother ride, more comfortable seats and easier to use controls it would be perfect.
