Compare 2026 vs 2025 Honda Passport

Performance

The 2026 Honda Passport features an upgraded, stiffer chassis—the same one used in Honda’s light-duty trucks—offering enhanced stability and control. It also boasts a newly introduced 10-speed automatic transmission, replacing the 9-speed system from 2025. While both model years are equipped with a 3.5-liter V6 engine, the 2026 Passport sees a slight power increase from 280 to 285 horsepower.

For improved handling and capability, the 2026 Passport also comes with larger brake rotors, enhanced calipers, and an increased ground clearance of 8.3 inches. Both model years include multiple standard drive modes designed for various terrains, including snow, sand, and mud, making them great choices for adventure seekers in Mt. Juliet, TN.

Appearance

The 2025 Honda Passport features a bold yet streamlined exterior, with a rounded front-end design, crisp body lines, and well-defined rear fenders. Its wedge-like headlights seamlessly integrate into the grille, giving it a sophisticated yet rugged appearance.

The 2026 Passport takes its design to the next level with a more aggressive stance, a taller and flatter nose, and a redesigned grille with a short, rectangular shape. Its amber-outlined headlights now blend directly into the reshaped grille, giving it a commanding road presence. Additional updates include improved roof rails, redesigned fender flares, and a revamped front fascia. Both models offer available features like a hands-free power liftgate, all-terrain tires, and heated, power-folding side mirrors.

Features

Inside, the 2026 Passport introduces a larger infotainment touchscreen, standard heated seats, a heated windshield, and an optional built-in picnic table for outdoor enthusiasts.

Standard and available features in both model years include:

• Driver’s memory settings
• Wireless smartphone charging
• Moonroof
• Three-zone climate control system
• Forward collision mitigation
• Parking sensors
• Rear window sunshades
• Navigation system
