What's New for the 2027 Honda Passport?
The 2027 Honda Passport brings exciting trail-focused enhancements, most notably on the TrailSport trim levels, where a factory-lifted suspension boosts ground clearance to 9.65 inches. This elevated stance gives drivers added confidence over rocky washes and steep trails. Standard technology on the TrailSport expands as well, integrating the TrailWatch camera system to help navigate blind spots, along with a comfortable heated steering wheel.
Cosmetically, the Passport adopts a more muscular look, characterized by bolder fender flares and a distinct amber light inside the hood scoop. Honda has also introduced a sophisticated Smoke Blue Pearl paint choice for the new model year.
What Are the 2027 Passport Trims & Features?
Honda presents six distinct editions of the 2027 Passport: RTL, RTL Towing, TrailSport, TrailSport Blackout, TrailSport Elite, and TrailSport Elite Blackout.
The well-appointed RTL serves as a comfortable, tech-forward daily driver. It comes outfitted with a nine-speaker sound system including a subwoofer, heated front seats, tri-zone automatic climate control, and a responsive 12.3-inch center display featuring Google built-in. If you need a ready-to-go towing utility, the RTL Towing model comes with an integrated Class III hitch from the factory.
For adventurous lifestyles, the TrailSport adds specialized hardware including an off-road suspension and heavy-duty skid plates. Drivers who favor a stealthy look can opt for the TrailSport Blackout, which sports 18-inch black alloy rims and darkened exterior badges.
Those pursuing superior cabin refinement will enjoy the TrailSport Elite, which is fitted with ventilated front seats, a dual-pane panoramic sunroof, and concert-like Bose premium audio. Rounding out the family is the TrailSport Elite Blackout, which combines every available premium comfort with dark-trim styling.

How Much Horsepower Does the 2027 Passport Have?
Under the hood, each 2027 Passport is propelled by a durable 3.5-liter V6 engine that generates 285 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. This powertrain matches with a smooth-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission for confident highway merging and off-road control. Confident handling in slippery conditions is assured by Honda's standard i-VTM4 all-wheel drive system. With appropriate towing equipment installed, the Passport can pull trailers weighing up to 5,000 pounds.
What Safety Features Does the 2027 Passport Include?
Peace of mind comes standard with the comprehensive Honda Sensing suite of driver aids. Key active systems working to keep you safe include Adaptive Cruise Control, the Collision Mitigation Braking System, the Road Departure Mitigation System, and the Lane Keeping Assist System.
