2019 Honda Passport Review - Can We Live with 2 Rows?
Vložit
- čas přidán 12. 08. 2019
- First was the 2 row SUV, then the 3 row SUV. Well now, the 2 row is making a comeback with more attitude and style. The Honda Passport is the latest entry into this segment. With more style and 2nr row room than the 3 row Honda Pilot.
This is our first Honda, we have been a GM family forever, our daughter bought a new Honda Truck for business reasons, so we bought this passport Elite, we are totally in awe of this car. GMC, you’ve got some catching up to do. Still learning all the features, the ride is relaxing, when I get done with a road trip, I’m not the least bit tired, never experienced that ever and we have always had new cars SUVs APVs, very nice trucks, none compares to the Honda Elite we are now driving. Like the hands free, kick your foot to open the cargo door. 👍🏻👍🏻
Footnote,Honda elite was our daughters, we kept it in the family LOL, before it went on the Honda lot For Sale, she convinced us, one ride with her in the Honda elite we were convinced to leave our GMC Terrian,one day on the lot it sold
I love this passport! I need only 5 passenger seating and love the big cargo/storage space. I also like the look better than the pilot. It's a winner for me.
We are thinking of buying this, we had a Honda Pilot and that thing was bullet proof, sold it with 290,000 miles on it and never had a single issue with it. Now I don't need a third seat this may work nicely.
MsVS1221 it will you will not regret getting the passport. 👍🏻
I have no regrets. Love it as much as the day I discovered it!! Great Car. You need to step up with your outside foot on the running boards, the only thing I do not love. I would not have added them but it was the last 2019 Passport at my dealer. I am learning to work with them.
Found you when I was looking at the mdx. Then we fell in love with your Mexico videos. It’s time to trade my mdx in. This is def a great contender since I no longer need the third row seat. Keep making your videos. 😄
This and the Outback are near-perfect all round family cars if you don't need 3 rows.
Outback is nice but; A little underpowered with the 4 cylinder and CVT.
Nice to see the Everyday Review Crew in the video.
I'm going to test drive a 2019 Honda Passport tomorrow. I've been watching many review videos to get an idea about this vehicle. I was considering the Honda Pilot because I honestly did not know that the passport really existed. I think for me the passport will fit the bill perfectly in the pilot is just a little bit more than I need and more money as well. By the way this is the most adorable video I have seen for a car review because your family was in the car with you and even participated. Wow it was so cool thank you so much
Thanks!
I like it.. no turbo..no batteries..no problems
I had a 2007 Honda Pilot for ten years and put nearly 200,000 miles on it, and boy! I really abused that car on long road trips, light off-roading, hauling and towing and I never even had to replace a lightbulb on it, just regular maintenance. When it came time to sell, the new owner could not believe how tight it still drove. By far the best car I have ever owned, only thing I did not like was the somewhat awkward boxy design. The new Pilot's design is much more attractive, but a bit too minivan-ish for my taste. The Passport fixes that, it looks much more SUV-like, rugged and sporty, and the shorter dimensions is actually a plus for me, given that I do not need a third row. There may be some SUVs out there a bit more attractive, nonetheless, my first consideration when choosing a car is RELIABILITY, and on this respect, my experience is that only Toyota comes close to rival Honda.
I just got my new 2021 Passport Sport AWD last week, and I am looking forward to another problem-free and awesome ten years with it!
I love so much about this car, but it does have some deal-breakers i hope they address in the 2020 model. I simply must have birdseye camera for parking. I am not a fan of touch bottons for gear-shifting, but i suppose i could get used to it. For the sticker price I wish the interior was more lavish & offered light tan finish options, but I can live with that, too. Otherwise, I would buy this in a heartbeat.
Just bought a Passport Touring. The exterior color options are okay, but he interiors come in black and "dirty white". The salesman thought it was a deal breaker when I asked him to tear the tan interior out of the Pilot sitting in the showroom and put in my car. Ended up with black leather. I'll throw an old bed sheet on it when I go to the desert.
I was looking for a month for a midsize suv. I couldn’t believe that most of them came with a 4 cylinder with turbo. Are you kidding me. Your gonna have a small engine pulling all that weight. I couldn’t see getting a 100 thousand miles on these small 4 cylinders without major engine problems. I was really up in the air on which suv to buy because the Honda elite was almost 10 grand more than some of the other midsize suv. I sucked it up and bought the Honda elite 6 cylinder 280 HP with 5000 pounds of towing capacity. I could care less about the bells and whistles but what’s under the hood. This suv drives smooth with the 20 inch wheels. The acceleration was very good as well. I would highly spending more money and getting the Honda elite. It’s a very nice ride.
I agree, the Passport looks better than the Pilot.I would much rather the older squared Pilot. It was different, didn't look like every other SUV on the road. But why is the smaller Passport more expensive than the Pilot?
Love it. Hope it will come to Korea.
I love it the passport is a beauty!
We do as well , we have the Honda elite model. What a ride, what a beauty
mid-size bike?nice review & lovely family btw.
Great looking vehicle. Will golf clubs fit in the back? Would be great to know the cargo dementors.
I'm torn on which SUV to get. I love most every thing about the Honda Passport except for the lack of a raised, padded center console which I like to rest my arm on. The built in chair arm rests seem too restricting for my comfort. Also, the dash seems a bit dated. I love most every thing about the Acura RDX, but that only tows 1500 lbs whereas the Passport can tow 5000 lbs. Currently drive an F150 which is great for hauling, but I only do that occasionally so looking to trade in for a more comfortable, daily ride. Nice review!
Mike McDermott we have captain seat in our passport,Elite, yes your right nice to rest your arm, leather captain seats in ours. Sit up high, great view, relaxing ride in the captain seats.
Great review, lovely family
what a great family-----they could sell any car
Great video! How is it on Gasoline?
This would be awesome with a strong hybrid
As an owner of a new Honda Pilot, and about to trade my pick up truck, I'm thinking about the new Passport or the Ridgeline. Do I really need a PU bed?
Do you use your truck? If so then go for the Ridgeline. It really is a handy trick.
Honda Passports is really good! A small version of Pilot!
I think the Passport, especially in the base trim Canada, is not well enough equipped for the price you pay. The base version doesn't even come with a power lift gate on a vehicle which cost $42,000. Something that most ladies want or need in a vehicle this size. The new 2020 Outback Touring, which is second trim from bottom, you are getting a lot more bang for your buck. More features, including that power lift gate and at least $7000 cheaper. Even the new Outback Outdoor XT, with the new 2.5L turbo, has similar power, better equipped, better fuel economy is still $3400 cheaper. The thing that really bothers me with manufactures is that if you want a well equipped vehicle you are force to get one with leather seating. I am not a fan of leather. I find that good quality cloth wears much better and is more comfortable. Even the synthetic leather, such as I currently have in my Toyota Prius V (SofTex), is much superior, wears better, looks just as good and is more comfortable than any leather you can find in vehicles this price range.
Great comment. Thanks for your input. It’s all about getting the buyer to move into the higher model. Everyone does it unfortunately 😩
It may look better than Pilot, but still can’t hold a candle next to 9 year old grand Cherokee, it may be more reliable on paper, but that ZF 9 speed transmission has been problematic in every implementation. Honda can do better.
Yes only the ZF 8 speed is good. One of the best actually.
How come nobody talks about the drive selector switches/column. How does it work, do you like it, do you hit a button accidentally? etc.
edwizard62 love the buttons, no we have not had an issue hitting the buttons accidentally, and this is our 2nd car with buttons, other car was a GMC, Honda buttons are better, bigger, better panel, great 👍🏻
I have grown to like the extra room the buttons provide. I could never use a shift dial, that's just gross.: )
edwizard62 no, my take on this , if you hit the wrong button it would be driver mistake, buttons are large compared to our last SUV.
I wish they have panoramic sunroof
That start / stop feature is a deal breaker for me.
You can turn it off if you don';t want it on.
it's super unobtrusive... I've owned the Passport over 6 months and I don't mind it at all
@@jobot how do you like it so far? I really want one but because of start/stop feature.
Gauge cluster is bad design. I would buy but that gauge cluster killed it for me.
I agree. It looks like absolute shit. I even went and looked at dealer and it it is just so weird.
Wish it had the Accord dash with analog looking guages. Other than that I like👍
So what does everyone think about it?? going shopping next week.. give me some cons and pros
Well the big question, do you need or want 3 rows?
2 row.. I'm asking the owners.
Are all three models AWD?
All four trims (US) have AWD as a $2K option. Well worth it if you live in a snowy place or if light off-roading is your thing.
This has the ZF 9 Speed. Honda is dumping this transmission for the 2020 Odyssey. The "starts in 2nd gear" was the lame workaround to reduce the off the line lag & herky jerkiness.
The workaround works. So much smoother.
Ivan Vojt The 9-speed in my 2019 Pilot Elite is just fine. I haven’t noticed any drivability issues.
@@stevennevins6643 Good to hear that. Bought my 2WD, Obsidian Blue, Touring in May here in S.E. Texas. I feel some gear searching occasionally but not constantly. Came out of a '15 Highlander. Really enjoying my Passport.
My fourth, Honda to own. All have been reliable. Hoping same for this PP. peace, e.
You should have done the review on the Elite AWD, not the Touring
Unfortunately I can only test what’s available. I hear ya though.
Yeah, I'd only consider the Elite model but i do feel it needs more premium features. Wish they'd partnered with Bose on the speakers, but that's no deal-breaker for me.
I hate Bose LOL. The sound system in the Touring is fantastic.
aperxmim I would have liked the review on the Elite as well, that’s the model we have, totally love this Honda Elite, we have no cons.
Why is there a goblin at 4:39?
Ok. I had to look. What goblin?
Everyday Reviews it’s on the steering wheel hahaha
Same comment, poor dash instrumentation, not up to 2021 techno
All passports are not equipped with power liftgate....
I agree with what you say on the dash/instrument panel on all the honda Suvs/minivan.....I hate it. It literally is so hideous that it makes me want to buy something else because you have to stare on that simplistic garbage design all day, every day. What a huge fail on their part when the rest of the product is great. I don't say this lightly, probably the worst designed cluster of any vehicle. I don't get honda's for all they do well. I have owned three Acura's which i love but now the new RDX which is fantastic and fun to drive still has no Android Auto. Even the lesser Honda has it which most vehicles do now. How do you get that wrong on roll out of vehicle??
RDX is nice!
If you can’t live with two rows get the damn pilot....
I just wish they could squeeze 3rd row of seats into this Passport 😁
Then it would be the pilot which already is available
Well, Honda designed really getting bored and they getting lazy in design for sure. Just cut and paste from it own other model.
At quick glance, I thought it was a Subaru Forester.
Really? This is much larger and higher as well.
@@EverydayReviews2022Yes it is does. It has Subaru's design DNA to it instead of a Honda.
"...The Blazer is the family vehicle that actually appeals to the whole family, and for that reason it upsets the Honda(Passport)on its home court."
I think the Motor Trend staff was weeping when they wrote that!
@John Thomas Welcome from out under your rock. Things have changed recently.
You can't just claim your cars are the most reliable or the highest quality without having substantial evidence to back up what you're saying. Otherwise the networks won't run the spots. They want to see robust proof of the claim. And not necessarily because they're such nice, selfless people, but because the network wants to sell commercials to other companies as well. If one were to make a baseless claim about another, the other company might pull its advertising. Or sue. Or both.
There's no reason to doubt that Chevy did, as it claims, commission global survey taker Ipsos to conduct a 50,000-vehicle survey and that that survey showed Chevy was #1 in reliability. Car & Driver
Its ugly. It has that camaro styling.
the Blazer costs ten thousand dollars more and has 2/3 the cargo room
@@jobot with discounting the Blazer is less as Honda doesn't discount like Chevy does. Plus you get better looking vehicle in the RS and not a mini-Pilot.
So Chevy paid for the research which “unrelatedly” then found that Chevy was reliable! What a surprise, who could have seen that coming?? Also, you fail to identify what the criteria were, as well as any specific result (e.g. Chevy is X% more reliable than Brand Y). You also failed to break this down by particular vehicle (e.g. a Blazer is X% more reliable than a competitor’s similar model). You also fail to mention what year or years of vehicles were compared, or whether the research was for initial quality or after a certain other period of ownership. So your offering of proof and evidence of Chevy’ supposed premium quality falls very short of convincing any critical thinker.
No Auto Brake Hold or Adjustable Tailgate = deal breaker.
You’re a fan of auto hold? Me too. My favourite is Mercedes and Porsche where you just give the brake pedal an extra push to activate it.
Everyday Reviews Highlander has this feature too! 😀
Douche, you can’t afford one anyway!
That is not mid size bike. That is a kids bike.
Thanks for sharing
lots.. of... plastics
Honda vehicles seem like a disaster to own in the long term compared to Toyota vehicles.
I've been driving hondas since 2001. I don't know what you're talking about.
