With the arrival of the 2026 Honda Passport just on the horizon, it's a great idea to know what exactly to expect from it. Fortunately, we at Honda of Chantilly have the inside scoop that can get you excited about the release of this midsize SUV. We also encourage you to touch base with our associates to know when you will get to see it in person.
Performance
There will be plenty to look forward to when you command the 2026 Passport. For starters, you'll be equipped with the next-generation i-VTM4® AWD system and trail-ready suspension to make handling on uneven terrain an exciting feat. This iteration will also crank up the force with 285 horsepower and a 10-speed automatic transmission to assist with pristine takeoff as you go about your trips in Fairfax. It's clear that the 3.5L V6 engine is doing its job! Like the 2025 Passport, the following year's version will include a 5,000-lb. maximum towing capacity1, so hauling large items around town will be just as easy.
Interior
Staying comfortable won't be difficult when you drive around in the 2026 Honda Passport. Leather upholstery is expected on select trim levels, delivering a luxurious feel for you and your guests. Power-adjustable and heated front seats are also set to make a comeback, so you and your partner can look forward to them for longer commutes down the Capital Beltway Outer Loop. For the summer months, you will be able to utilize available ventilation for the aforementioned positions. We couldn't forget to mention the potential inclusion of a panoramic sunroof and all-season floor mats, which are both sure to come in handy on summer adventures off the beaten trail.
Technology
Balancing out the aforementioned comfort and convenience will be a technological assortment that takes each trip to and from the Westwood Country Club just as exciting as the visit itself. A 12-speaker premium audio system with a subwoofer will be available, so playing your favorite songs will be more inviting. To view your speed, trip computer, and fuel levels, simply take a look at the 10.2-inch instrument panel for expert clarity. To toggle between other features, you'll have a 12.3-inch touchscreen that runs on Honda's latest software. Some other amenities include a Wi-Fi hotspot2 and a wireless charger3, so you will be connected and powered up wherever you go. Don't hesitate to check out some of our virtual financing tools to get a head start on the buying process once the Passport arrives.
