When the Pilot’s too big and the CR-V is too small, the 2020 Honda Passport two-row crossover SUV is just the ticket.
Pros Comfortable interior Refined on the road Decent off-road chops Good 8.0-inch touchscreen on some models
Cons 9-speed automatic is a little confused Expensive in top models Not too adventurous in style Not as tough as some may need
The Passport returns largely unchanged for 2020.
Pros Spacious interior with lots of passenger space Comfortable front seats Enhanced off-road ability Many clever storage compartments
Cons Adaptive cruise control is only available over 20 mph Driver's seat might be positioned a little too high for some people
For 2020, Honda doesn't make any meaningful changes to the Passport lineup. This is to be expected since the company just re-released the two-row crossover last year.
Pros Loads of cargo and passenger space, speedy powertrain, copious standard driver assists.
Cons Looks more rugged than it is, only top trims have top options, rides rough on bumpy roads.
