@abrahamk9 Agree 💯. Size is definitely not all important. Usability is. I happen to own a Mercedes EQS with a hyperscreen, the largest, brightest, highest definition screen in any car. The 9 in screen on the Honda is much less visually impressive yet just as useful and much easier to use. Furthermore, when using the 360 camera system, the size of the camera display is exactly the same size as the Hondas! So, no one should need to feel screen size envy🤣

Good review. We've got 30K miles on the '23 EX-L trim version (nice balance of price and features with 18" wheels better suited for snow/off-road use). We use it a s a daily hauler and road-trip/ski-access car. It' feels pretty wide for a mid-sized SUV. Acoustic glass makes a noticeable difference (we compared against the base model). Small'ish screen was a *plus* for us and infotainment works well. Two annoyances on the non trail-sport versions: you can't easily retrofit the Trail Sport skid plate/recovery point to the other trim levels since the frame doesn't have the threaded inserts to hold it in place. Also, a full-size tire will not fit under-deck with enough ground clearance in case you were thinking of using a full-sized spare -- on the Trail Sport version, the rear storage compartment is more shallow to accommodate a full-sized spare. It's a fantastic AWD car that drives well. A worthy land yacht.

Great review, it's hard to test the off-road capabilities on a test drive, so I really appreciate your videos. We're going with the Elite trim (level just below Black Edition) and yeah, Honda really nailed it with the seats. We tested every other 3 row SUV out there, Honda's are the most comfortable for 2024/2025 models.

In regards to your captains chairs comment, the Touring/Elite/Black trims (and all trims of the MDX) have a completely removable middle seat in the second row that can actually be stowed in the underfloor compartment in the trunk. This effectively creates captains chairs if you want them. I prefer a bench though and am happy Honda did this.

Hello! You are my main tester who will decide me to buy the new 2026 passport! I hope you will test it in the same places where it failed. Either in the woods in the small tight curve where it remained on the spot because the all-wheel drive system was not efficient enough. And in the mountain with the snow when it needed power to continue its momentum but it cut the power and you remained stopped.

I had been doing a lot of research on Elite and Black edition and found out that except some exterior framing , there is no real difference between them. Price wise, Elite is a bit better than the Black edition. Therefore, I ended up buying the Elite. I really recommend Elite to anyone.
@Wised1000
@Wised1000 Ай бұрын
@adigamo You are correct, the Elite and the Black are in every measure the exact same car. However, if you like the blacked out look and exclusive black with red trim interior, the price differential is small. The Elite's price is still high. If you are spending that amount, the price between them is no big deal. If you want to save some bucks and still get an amply equipped one, and can stomach an iffy stereo, the Touring is the best deal. For me, the non Bose stereo is a deal breaker, given that the Bose is a LOT better. That said, if you are an "audiophile" even the Bose system is meh. The non branded stereo is simply bad, not utter trash, but still definitely Walmart level🤣

The screen is great! Simmer down with wanting a TV on your dash. 9" is plenty big enough. Honda why would you put buttons, taking up the same space of a shifter, in place of a shifter? A shifter is safer and more predictable. In that you don't have to look when shifting. Honda is not the only manufacturer guilty of this notion. Innovation in place of safety is going backwards.

As a f150 owner interested in the ridgeline(yes I know this is a pilot review) the things that would put the next gen ridgeline over the top for me would be basically this pilot but with just north of 300hp and 285ftlb tq, a little more back seat space, mpg improvement. And maybe be capable of 1500w power supply. Just a wish list though for what I need for my family.

Ryan, as mentioned in your video of the Trail Sport, Honda's brake vectoring algorithm is quite impressive in Trail mode (compared to other crossovers). Honda should seriously consider adding a trim above the Trail Sport (like a Trail Sport X) with even more ground clearance, especially for the next Passport, if Honda wants to steal some customers from the Subaru crowd.

this one should have the captain chairs in 2nd row. they should be optional in the trailsport along with the sunroof. give us a roof rack instead. not digging the all black interiors in either. i dont care about screen size but wish it were more integrated. really looking forward to the next passport trailsport as it should be the one to rule them all, hopefully. maybe a grand c killer as well, but it still wont have a low range like the new 4runner which i think will do well in term of sales in 2025 also, better than the wrangler and bronco anyway. 4r will be more affordable but not quite grand c sales numbers bc its still a truck and the grand c prob sells more as a 2wd crossover than other trims. the grand c and wrangler needs a new engine like the sst and interior refresh to keep up.

@upshifter5316 2 ай бұрын
Agree on tired of all black interiors!! Get creative, a little contrast won’t kill anyone. As for the trail sport captains chairs, they force that option because the rear underfloor storage is different from the other trims so that they could fit a full size spare underneath, and thus there would be no storage space for the removable center seat as in the other trims. I presume they went with captains chairs because a) they’re trendy and b) it was cheaper than fabricating a one off bench seat.

Hybrid will come out in next generation. It will be a 4 cylinder hybrid with 250hp. Loss is hp and torque, but you hybrid fans will be happy. 30mpg.

I think it would be much better to test drive base model if it is available to you, because majority of buyrs could not afford the top end model. I am not sure it the base model is as capable.

Companies only send top trims. That way people know what all options are. Then they can decide if they want to step down.

Pilot. Just really worried about the tow capacity. My VW Toureg tows our camper and it’s like 4500 loaded so very close to the capacity of the ‘25 pilot.

I disagree on the screen! We look at enough screens every day, and most of us don't want another huge, distracting, ugly tablet sitting in the middle of the dash. Most of us probably would prefer traditional gauges as well, with an info screen in the center. Doesn't the Trailsport trim have 9.2 inches of clearance? That's a full 2.5 lift kit (suspension settles to around 1.9 inch lift). But I think it's authentic and not just some cheapo hockey pucks, because the ride quality is still great for such a big lift.

It’s fine until you need to use a map. Kind of crammed with the menus. The ground clearance on the TS is 8.3 inches.

Thanks for the video. Do you know if the 2026 passport transmission is going to be updated?.... I know it doesn't pertain to this video. I'm in between another used RX or that believe it or not... Also to keep the algorithm going and stir the pot a little bit.... Why the heck are wranglers so expensive? It's just ridiculous.

I couldn’t care less about the giant screens. My F150 has a 12 inch screen and I don’t think I use it for anything other than google map projection. What bothers me here is the placement of the screen. It looks like some cheap after market addition especially with the volume knob and a couple of tacky looking buttons directly on it.

Ryan, have you heard anything about the problems with the transmission on the newer pilots? I currently own a 21 CROSSTREK and feel like I would choose the Trailsport over an Ascent, but I’ve heard bad things about the trans.

It’s not “extra torque”. It’s a portion of the available torque. In terms of performance it’s not really different from the brake-based systems in terms of steering and cornering. Just a different way of achieving it
@Wised1000
@Wised1000 Ай бұрын
@TK0O0O0O0 Not quite right. Braking to proportion torque is not the same as speeding up the opposite tire. both proportion torque but SHAWD also induces yaw, which in turn helps in handling. BTW, the magic sauce of the trail sport is that it has SHAWD (for the rear), plus it uses brake proportioning in the front, thus adding an additional layer of traction to the offroading chops. The trailsport can efficiently transfer up to 70% of torque to any wheel! The only thing with more traction than that would be fully locking differentials on both front, back and center (like the Mercedes G class).

56 grand for that interior is LOLLLL I’m sure it’s a super reliable vehicle but that digital gauge cluster is pathetic looking, the 9 inch screen is fine but the location of the screen looks like an afterthought. This trim should not cost more than 50 grand. 47-48 would be most reasonable.
