Not a 4runner



Now here me out, I know it's not a True Competitor.

Yes it's a Unibody Crossover SUV, and will not match the capability of a 4runner, but the Passport will definitely be cross-shopped with the upcoming 4runner.
  • Boxy design
  • Off-Road aesthetics
  • NA V6
  • Decent Honda reliability
If Honda keeps pricing similar or lower to a 4runner, I feel like this will fit the need and be popular for average person who does not need serious off road prowess and towing.

I like it but not a fan of the color scheme.

Yeah, the Passport probably can't match the 4Runner for serious off-roading, but it looks solid for weekend getaways and camping. I dig the Passport's style, but Toyota's reliability is hard to beat. Wonder how they'll price it - that could make or break the deal for a lot of folks. Guess we'll see if Honda can tempt some would-be 4Runner buyers!

Make a flip up rear window, ! V6 no turbo 10 speed. Just need a 2 speed transfer case (I doubt it) and I’m in!

Starting to think more about the Passport. Honestly looks like a great contender.

They're having the Press drive in Moab either last week or this week in Moab based on this video. The Passport sounds pretty capable but you can assume it will not have a 2-speed transfer case.

I will drive both a 4 Runner Sport and the Honda Passport Trailsport next summer. Before I make a sound decision as it could be my last vehicle on Earth! I only do Category 3 off-roading to get to my Cottage, I’ve always had Jeep for the last 25 years and used the low range of the transfer case only a couple time . The V6 regular gaz and no turbo could be the decisive factor!

So far seems like a really great product by Honda. It’s not on par with a Toyota but for a Unibody it seems like they nailed it.

This V6 been bullet proof and newly updated with 2 overheads cams now stands at 285 Hp and trans is 10 Speed as the Pilot. Fuel economy will be the same as New 4 Runner !

Here is another video from KBB with a little more off-roading. I think we all knew it wasn't going to be a true competitor for the 4Runner, though I'm surprised that Honda did not at least benchmark the Subaru Wilderness models especially with ground clearance. It still could be a good overall vehicle for many people.
