2025 Honda Passport Consumer Reviews

Honda Passport new to me
Overall if feel very comfortable driving this car, I like the feel of being up higher, visibility is really good, the windshield has a nice wide view and the interior is nice and roomy. The only CON is the gas mileage.
Just about Right
We are just about ready to pass the 3K mile mark and so far so good with our 22 Passport Elite. My wife is the primary driver and likes the room it offers and its easy to park. We upgraded from a Mazda CX5, My main vehicle is a 2017 Ridgeline and still love it...One of the main reasons we chose the Passport was the similar dash and instrument layout which my wife was somewhat familiar with in the Ridgeline. Its not fair to compare the two vehicles but I find the Passports ride to be a little more choppy than the Ridgeline but given the shorter wheelbase that makes sence. The buttons on the steering wheel are smaller and I miss the round tachometer...I blame fat fingers and old eyes. I hope in the future Honda will introduce a hybrid version of the Passport which we would consider. Because our Passport was a dealer demo we were able to negotiate down from MSRP and took delivery with just 800 miles and a very good warrantyWe like our Passport and look forward to many happy care free miles.

Happy as a hound dog in the sun
Very happy so far with my Passport Black Edition. Has almost all the features I needed or wanted; the only one missing is the driver monitor system which is not available in the Passport, but is in the CR-V and the Pilot. I was VERY unhappy that my salesperson told me the Passport had this feature when it didn't!! I need this vehicle for a lot of long distance driving and hauling a lot of "stuff;" comfort and capacity have been exactly as expected. I wanted a V6 so passed over the Toyota Highlander and the Ford Edge. I probably would have looked more closely at the Kia Telluride, but there is no local dealer so service would have been a hassle. I am not a demanding owner, but I expect quality and feel I got it where I want it with the Passport. I don't care about analogue gauges or a foot operated emergency brake. However, I do wish the Apple CarPlay connected via bluetooth and not hard wired. What I really like about this vehicle is a pretty decent ride, it is quiet, it is amazingly spacious, it has features I value like memory driver seat, auto high beams, rain sensing wipers, the handsfree power tailgate, the Honda assist safety features, the ability to select for economy operation when performance is not necessary, 110-V power outlet, heated seats and the tilt-down exterior mirrors when in reverse. I wish there were better instructions on how to to get full use of the navigation system. I wish the dealer had spent some time with me explaining the various features so I didn't have to spend so much time on Youtube. And I wish I didn't have to pay for a sunroof which i will not use once for as long as I own this vehicle - but that's me. Overall, I'm as happy as a hound dog in the sun with my Passport.

2X winner
This is my second leased passport 2021 & 2024. Both times I went with the top trim level. I absolutely love the space in the passport. That is one of the biggest reasons I went with it. The automatic starter, heated steering wheel, as well as heated back seats were a big plus for me. My dog is about 45 pounds and fits so comfortably in the trunk with room to spare I do agree the sound system can be glitchy To compare the 2021 versus 2024: my biggest disappointment is that the 2024 no longer has armrests. That was a feature that was really comfortable. They ditched the armrest and made a bigger middle console to rest your elbows on. It’s definitely not the same I was hoping the miles per gallon would be better this go round, but apparently not I like the new seats the stitching looks great Overall a great comfortable roomy ride very happy with my purchase highly recommended

A Practical Choice: 2025 Passport
We have been driving a Lexus NX 350 2022 for 3 years. It rides stiff and harsh, thanks to 20" run flat tires, that after 17,700 miles need replacement at around $2,000. REALLY? Add to that premium gas, which after 3 years hurts just as much as year 1. Even more. Add to that 4 "updates" to software, or "recalls," if you prefer. The shifter is especially difficult for our aging hands, and when you're in your 70s, that means a lot. I did my research, and I mean it. Enter the Honda Passport, "The Pilot on a Diet," as Motor Mouth says on You Tube. 1) The shifter is SOOOO nice: pushbuttons! 2) V6 engine! Are you kidding? It's quiet, powerful and torqued just right. 3) Regular gas! Man, oh man! 4) Roomy, airy, comfy. Not too big, either. A back seat we feel good about for our passengers, really comfy. 5) A ride that is compliant, yet confident. We got the TrailSport, which has 18" off road tires and a suspension tuned to handle bumps and holes. We live in the country, on a farm, 10 miles from a rural town, and honestly, that's kind of close to off roading. The Passport makes bumpy country roads feel much better, and we are confident the suspension and alignment can handle them, unlike our previous SUVs that were being re-aligned all the time. 6) Interior: we LIKE the minimalist, clean look with the moderately sized info screen smoothly integrated into the dash. We are not fans of having giant pizza boxes jutting out of the dash, and when we drive, we like to drive, not watch television. Maybe that's not you, though. 7) Tech: Honda does the simple things so intelligently. You'll appreciate that after a while. Buttons, etc. all make sense and are easy. The Apple Car Play joins the team easily, and that's great for nav. The radio is super easy to use and navigate. 7) Reliability: Hey, it's a Honda. Try and beat that for confidence in your name brand, because you can't. Everything is made to last, and did I say V6? Compare that to a turbo 4 after 100K miles and we'll talk again. 8) WILDCARD: My wife NEVER drove our Lexus, period, 3 years after her birthday present that it was, because the shifter was so hard on her hands, scary, and the ride was so jumpy. SHE DROVE THE PASSPORT HOME! And I smiled and smiled. It was so much fun.
