Getting to Know the Trim Levels of the 2026 Honda Passport: Ready for Adventure

RTL 

The lineup’s entry model delivers affordable performance. Under its hood is the same engine that powers the upper trims, a 3.5L V6 with 285 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque. Honda’s second-generation Intelligent Variable Torque Management all-wheel drive and the Trail Torque Logic feature deliver outstanding traction in rugged driving conditions, while the 10-speed automatic transmission has shift-by-wire capability and paddle shifters.

The interior has seats for five with ample legroom in both rows, and there is also plenty of storage space behind the second row. The main cargo area has a capacity of 44 cubic feet, which can expand up to a maximum of 104.6 cubic feet behind the front row thanks to the 60/40 split-folding rear bench.

RTL Towing

If you want an affordable off-roader that’s ready for trailering, the RTL Towing trim is the best choice for you. This model comes standard with a Class III hitch so you can easily pull trailers up to 5,000 lbs.

RTL Blackout

The Blackout edition of the RTL impresses with its unique appearance. Black 18-inch wheels with HPD center caps and black Honda badges catch the eye in traffic, making this trim instantly recognizable.

TrailSport

With off-road-tuned suspension and all-terrain tires, the TrailSport trim is a great choice for explorers. Underbody skid plates are also standard, protecting the vehicle from flying road debris and boosting your confidence when driving over obstacles. The interior has durable leatherette and cloth upholstery, while amber ambient lighting gives a cool look to the cabin.

TrailSport Blackout

Like the RTL Blackout, this trim boasts exclusive styling elements, such as black wheels with HPD center caps and matching badges. It shares all the comfort and performance features with the TrailSport.

TrailSport Elite

The TrailSport Elite builds on the TrailSport with unique interior styling features and premium creature comforts. Perforated leather seating surfaces with contrast accent stitching and piping boost the cabin’s visual appeal while providing breathable comfort. Heated and ventilated front seats with multiple power adjustments are standard, and the rear outboard seats are also heated.

The infotainment pairs with a premium audio system with 12 speakers. Convenience upgrades include a hands-free tailgate and a smart entry system with walk-away auto-lock on all doors.

TrailSport Elite Blackout

Similar to the other Blackout trims, this model builds on the TrailSport Elite with exclusive black accents.
