You can browse our new vehicle inventory to see the current selection of models available on our lot.

Local roads like State Route 60 and US-422 demand a vehicle that feels stable and quiet at higher speeds. The Passport features gas-pressurized shock absorbers and front and rear anti-roll bars, which help maintain ride comfort even on longer stretches of highway. This makes it a capable companion for both daily commutes and weekend road trips.

  • The 10-speed automatic transmission with Shift-By-Wire and paddle shifters allows for precise control during highway merging and winding local roads.
  • Interior lighting features like fade-to-off lighting and map lights keep the cabin accessible during early morning departures or late evening returns.
  • The 18-inch Shark Gray alloy wheels paired with all-season tires provide a balanced look and reliable traction for changing seasonal conditions.

Beyond the mechanical performance, the Passport offers a range of tech and comfort features. With 9 speakers and a well-designed console, the interior is built to keep you connected and comfortable during your time on the road.

When you visit Preston Honda, you can experience these features firsthand. We encourage you to test the seating position and cabin layout to ensure it meets your expectations for visibility and ergonomics.


Choosing the Right Passport Configuration

Selecting the right trim or configuration for your Passport involves balancing your specific needs for interior materials, technology, and utility. The cabin features a blend of leather and cloth seat trim, providing a balance of durability and comfort that works well for family errands or daily commuting.

When comparing models, consider how you use your cargo space most often. The Passport offers a power liftgate for easy access, which is a significant advantage when your hands are full of groceries or sports gear. You can start your financing process online before you visit to make your experience at Preston Honda even more efficient.

  • The 60-40 folding split-bench rear seat allows you to choose between maximizing cargo capacity or accommodating rear-seat passengers as your needs change.

  • The inclusion of a compact spare tire mounted inside under the cargo floor gives you extra peace of mind for long drives away from the city.

Comparing the Passport to Other Honda Models

Deciding between the Passport and other options in the Honda lineup often comes down to your specific space and performance requirements. While models like the Accord Hybrid or CR-V offer excellent efficiency for commuters, the Passport is built for those who need higher ground current offer and V6 power for heavier-duty tasks.

If you mostly drive alone or with one passenger, the efficiency of the Accord Sedan might be your preference. However, if your routine involves frequent trips with gear or multiple passengers, the Passport provides the extra room and utility that the midsize SUV segment is known for.

  • The Passport offers a more robust V6 powertrain compared to the efficient 4-cylinder engines found in the Civic or the gas-powered CR-V models.
  • While the Pilot offers a third row for larger families, the Passport focuses on providing maximum two-row space and cargo capacity for active individuals.
  • Comparing the ride feel of the Passport against our sedan lineup helps you decide if you prefer the higher seating position of an SUV.

During your test drive at Preston Honda, pay attention to the steering feel and visibility. These differences are often more apparent when you drive the vehicles back-to-back on familiar roads.

Take the time to compare the cargo floor and rear-seat legroom in person. Seeing these dimensions side-by-side can clarify which model truly fits your lifestyle and storage requirements.

Your Final Passport Fit Checklist

Before you finalize your decision, use this checklist to ensure the Passport aligns with your daily routine and storage needs. Check the visibility from the driver's seat, as this is crucial for parking in tight spaces and navigating busy shopping corridors.

Test the rear-seat comfort by sitting in the back, ensuring there is enough room for your typical passengers or child seats. Folding the rear seats down is a great way to visualize how your weekend gear, from camping equipment to grocery hauls, will fit in the cargo area.

  • Verify that the power liftgate height is comfortable for your reach and that the cargo area shape works for your bulky items.
  • Confirm that the infotainment system and steering wheel controls feel intuitive and easy to use while you are in the driver's seat.
  • Check the tire pressure and ensure the spare tire area is accessible to you, as this is a key part of your long-term ownership experience.

Finally, confirm the trim-specific features that are most important to you, such as the audio system or interior material choices. Making these checks in person provides the confidence you need to move forward.
