It feels huge inside, but its exterior dimensions aren't all that large. A 14-hour drive is no joke, friends."Īround town in Los Angeles, I found the Passport's size to be just about perfect. "This helped me relax a bit, and freed up my legs to move around a bit while on the road, so they didn't cramp up. "On long stretches of highway, I left the heavy lifting to the Passport's lane-keeping assist and adaptive cruise control - both of which come standard in the Honda Sensing safety suite," Emme wrote. Sure, it'll hold its own on the highway, but the naturally aspirated V6 can feel a little gutless at higher altitudes - something Emme experienced on the drive from Moab to Los Angeles.īut at the same time, we loved how seamlessly Honda's driver-assistance tech worked. Emme Hall/Roadshow Competent daily driverĬapable and usable as the Passport is, we can't exactly call it the most exciting car to drive. I'd also like to take this opportunity to personally thank Emme from the bottom of my heart for getting the Passport nice and filthy, because there's nothing I love more than having to go to do the do-it-yourself car wash three times just to get all the dirt off. "I could keep my momentum going through the slick stuff," she wrote. The differences were small, but Mud mode keeps the electronic nannies from intervening too quickly. Off-road, Emme was able to use the Passport's Snow, Mud and Sand drive modes. It was pretty comfortable over miles of washboard roads, had plenty of room for all my camping gear, and with a 5,000-pound tow rating, could've hauled a small camper. It easily drove in and out of rain gullies near the Canyonlands ranger station near Moab, and hung out like a boss over a few rocky climbs. But off-road, Honda gets it right."Įmme's praise continued: "The Passport is more capable than you might think. "Other AWD systems send power to the wheel with the least amount of traction, which is arguably better for slick driving. "The all-wheel-drive system is pretty good, sending up to 70% of the torque to the rear and then diverting that to the wheel that has the most traction," Hall noted. No, the Passport isn't a hardcore rock-crawler, but Emme still found a lot to like about its soft-roading prowess. If you know anything about Emme Hall, it's that she's Roadshow's resident dirt-slingin', rally-racin' off-roader.
