What to Expect from the New 2021 Honda Passport

August 31st, 2020 by

The New 2021 Passport will reach dealerships soon, and this capable and spacious Passport is definitely favored by buyers in the Charlotte area. The mid-size SUV is similar to the 2020 Passport and still incorporates many standard safety features as well as a powerful V-6 engine. The latest Passport is certainly a customer favorite, and it comes in four trim levels including the Sport, EX-L, Touring, and Elite.

Passport Transmission, Engine & Performance

The 2021 Passport features the same 280 horsepower 3.5-liter V-6 engine and 9-speed automatic transmission. These specifications can also be found in the Pilot. Options for all-terrain capability are available with the all-wheel-drive option for a bit more money, but the front-wheel-drive is available for those who opt against. This vehicle is very adventure-ready with 7.5 inches of ground clearance for FWD and 8.1 inches for AWD, and it can also tow up to 5000 pounds! This allows you to tow small trailers, a small boat, camping gear, and more. Consider taking the new Passport SUV for a test drive today!

New Honda Passport Fuel Economy

The new FWD Passport gets approximately 20 MPG in the city and 25 MPG on the highway while the AWD Passport gets about 19 MPG in the city and 24 on the highway. The difference between the two isn’t drastic, so buyers may want to rely on other features to make their final purchasing decision!

Standard Passport Safety Features

The Passport earned a 5-star crash-test rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Driving safely with your children, other family members, and friends is made a bit simpler with some standard technologically advanced safety features. Rest assured that your Honda Passport has your back with the following features:

  • Standard adaptive cruise control: Don’t worry about going above the speed limit or slamming on your brakes as a result of impromptu traffic. Honda has designed an adaptive cruise control feature to decrease the likelihood of accidents by having sensors around your SUV to detect changes in traffic. This way, you’ll feel more comfortable on Charlotte area highways and interstates!
  • Standard forward-collision and automated emergency braking: All drivers have been in a situation where they rear-ended another vehicle or almost rear-ended another vehicle. Your new 2021 Passport has a series of standard features that aid in keeping you and other drivers around you safe.
  • And more!
