April 3rd, 2025 by

The 2026 Honda Passport Trailsport Elite is making waves with its complete redesign, and we got our hands on it to see what all the buzz is about. From its striking sunset orange color to its rugged off-road capabilities, this SUV promises an adventurous ride both on and off the trail.

One of the first things that caught my eye was the embossed passport logo on the front grille, paired with a piano black finish and trailsport badging. The Trailsport Elite is the top tier of the Passport lineup, adorned with bright orange tow hooks and a robust body style that’s ready for any adventure. It boasts a higher ground clearance, off-road tuned suspension, and skid plates, ensuring it’s more than equipped for the toughest terrains.

Tech and convenience features are abundant in the Trailsport Elite. The smart entry system is seamless—just a simple touch can unlock the doors, and the power-folding mirrors are a handy touch. There’s even a hands-free kick gate to make loading and unloading a breeze. The 115-volt outlet and spacious cargo area make sure you’re well-equipped for any journey.

Inside, it’s all about comfort and tech. The black perforated leather seats with orange stitching and heated elements ensure that passengers are comfortable no matter the weather. The panoramic sunroof adds a touch of luxury, bringing the outside in. The front seats are not only equipped with a large touchscreen but also feature Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integrations, putting a world of connectivity at your fingertips. The Google Assistant comes built-in, making everything from adjusting the heated steering wheel to navigating on the highway a voice command away.

On the road, the 3.5-liter V6 engine with 285 horsepower makes sure you have the power you need. The adaptive cruise control and lane keep assist make highway driving a breeze while ensuring safety with features like blind spot monitoring and cross traffic alerts.

For those who love to explore off the beaten path, the trail watch camera, showing a 360° view, and the advanced all-wheel drive system are perfect additions. With a towing capacity of 5,000 pounds, the Passport is ready for road trips, camping, and everything in between.

Ultimately, the 2026 Honda Passport Trailsport Elite combines style, power, and advanced technology. Whether you’re an off-road enthusiast or need a reliable and stylish SUV for everyday adventures, this vehicle has everything you need and more.
