The 2026 Honda Passport ushers in its fourth generation with a striking new design and enhanced features. This mid-size SUV now boasts a boxier, more rugged look, combined with a longer wheelbase and improved stability thanks to wider front and rear tracks. Honda’s popular off-road-oriented TrailSport trim also returns with greater capability than ever before.
Revamped Design for a Rugged Appeal
With a 2.75-inch longer wheelbase, the new Passport offers more interior space while presenting a bold new exterior. The matte-black finish on the back of the roof adds utility, allowing outdoor enthusiasts to lean their gear like skis or fishing poles without damaging the paint. This refreshed design gives the Passport a distinct personality, separating it from competitors while showcasing Honda’s commitment to innovation.
The Passport now stands apart from its sibling, the Honda Pilot, with unique styling and a shorter frame. It maintains a rugged aesthetic that blends functionality with adventurous charm.
Spacious Interior with Modern Tech
The 2026 Passport’s cabin offers enhanced comfort and practicality. Passengers enjoy 1.3 inches more legroom than before, while the cargo area now provides up to 85.3 cubic feet of space with the rear seats folded. Even with the seats upright, it boasts 44 cubic feet of storage — a 2.8-cubic-foot increase from last year.
A suite of modern features awaits inside, including a standard 10.2-inch digital driver display and a 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen equipped with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Additional conveniences include 60W USB-C ports across all trims, and TrailSport models come with two 110V power outlets for added versatility.
Off-Road Excellence with the TrailSport Trim
The TrailSport trim delivers enhanced off-road performance, making it the go-to option for adventure seekers. It features specialized hardware and accessories designed to handle tough terrains with confidence.
Accessories for Every Adventure
Honda aims to cater to adventurers with a vast array of accessories. These include cargo shelves, a stowable picnic table, a roof platform, MOLLE storage systems, and skid plates. Expect more innovative add-ons to be announced soon.
Availability and Pricing
The 2026 Honda Passport will be available at dealerships starting early 2025, with a base price expected to fall in the mid-$40,000 range. The TrailSport trim will command a premium, offering unparalleled off-road capabilities and exclusive features.
“Expect the 2026 Honda Passport to hit U.S. dealer lots in early 2025. Expect a ‘starting price in the mid-$40,000s,’ with the Trailsport models, of course, demanding a considerable premium over that.”
