Passport to the World
2024 Honda Passport Black Edition: Got it last Friday, the 15th. I've put 300 miles on it by the 20th. It's been fun to drive and I am adjusting to it easily. The car is bigger than originally thought and very roomy. This is my first Honda. Sep 21, 2024 Update: The car is performing as expected and gas mileage is between 22 - 23.8 mpg.1.

A smooth and quiet cruiser
Traded my cramped and uncomfortable Mazda CX5 one month after purchase for our Honda Passport. I was craving more space and comfort and got both. Our 2023 Passport is equipped just right. Everything you need and not what you don’t. AWD standard, nice V6 engine, power seats,windows and tailgate. Build quality and comfort are all Honda. Only issue so far is the wide stance that requires I manually fold the drivers side side view mirror to enter the garage. Wish power folding mirrors were standard but would require moving up to Trailsport trim, another $3k or so. Also, V6 feels good but will not sit you back in your seat with hard acceleration. It takes a bit to get this big guy rumbling down the road. But I’ll happily forsake both issues for the quiet comfort. This is a wonderful highway cruiser. Very happy so far. Please consider this an update on two issues that I failed to mention during my initial review; 1. The wireless charging pad basically doesn’t work. I have an iPhone 13. If you can even find the right phone position on the charging pad that picks up the phone, the green light only blinks and will not charge the phone. Unfortunately, this feature is worthless and only serves as a place to store your phone. 2. The brakes are a little “mushy” and require quite a bit of pedal pressure to quickly stop the passport. Regardless, of these negatives, the positives are weighty.

Mixed feelings
I drove the car for 3000 miles. It is a good vehicle so far, just not very exciting ride. On the plus side: I like the heated steering wheel, the low level of noise inside de car, it has good power from the engine, it felt fairly stable in the snow and ice with the original tires. I like the conservative look.The Garmin nav is cool. However, there are some big minuses. The car feels and is heavy. Mileage is 16-19. For this mileage I could’ve gone with a 4Runner. Transmission is jerky although lately it seems to improve. The heating is very weak, thankfully it has heated seats, even on max heat the air coming through vents is tepid. Infotainment system is poorly designed and poorly coordinated with the steering wheel controls. If trying to use engine brake and down shift with the paddles, it actually shifts up, which will lead to car going faster for a few seconds until it finally shifts down. This is quite dangerous on icy roads or going downhill. This makes me miss my previous Nissan Murano.

Best Honea Yet
Our most recent purchase of a 2023 Passport Elite brings our total number of Hondas to 20. We love our Hondas. Obviously. To date, we've owned 1 Pilot; 1 Fit, 1 HR-V, 7 CR-Vs, 7 Civics, and 2 Oddessys. And now, our first Passport. It's taken us a while to consider the Passport, as all previous model versions were uninspiring. Subsequent test drives confirmed our suspicions. That aside, our intention in visiting Gunn Honda (the first of hopefully many more) was to drive home in a new Pilot. Besides our first Pilot being stolen off our driveway (one week into owning it), our experience was a delight. It took about a month for authorities to retrieve our Pilot, but after repairing the resulting damage, we enjoyed it for three years before it was time for a new one. It was then we learned that a redesigned Pilot was to be launched. We opted to wait for the release. In the interim, and after several rewarding HR-V purchases, we then heard about the release of yet another Pilot redesign. Thus, we found ourselves rolling into the San Antonio dealership with high hopes of the newest Pilot exceeding our expectations. It did. And then some. However, our eye caught the engaging lines of the redesigned Passport. A test drive later, we were hooked. Please understand, that as much as we love our Hondas, we can always cite where an improvement here or there would make for an even more refined automobile. Regardless, this is not the case with our new Passport. Were there such thing as a perfect SUV, the Passport is the first to earn such praise. Whether it's the throaty growl of its powerful V6, the sporty nimble ride, the luxurious interiors, or the cozy support of its capacious seating, the 2023 Passport has it all. We could not be any more elated.

My Passport to vacation
I just bought my 2023 Honda Passport and so far I am very pleased with it. It is well equipped and will be our vacation transportation. I have run into one issue that really is frustrating. The wireless charging pad will not work with my iPhone 14. I have read where the iPhones with MagSafe charging will not work. Honda has known about this issue since the iPhone 12 series and they continue to drag their feet on fixing the issue. I also did not like that Honda is still using Halogen high beam bulbs. When you buy the top trim level which is the Elite it should have LED lighting on everything. I immediately ordered LED high beam bulbs and changed them. I have also orders a VCM Muzzler to turn that feature off. Enough of the stupid gimmicks Honda get with the program
