2026 Honda Passport Trailsport
Explore the Off-Road-Ready 2026 Honda Passport TrailSport at Honda Santa Maria
Adventure-ready and built with capability at its core, the 2026 Honda Passport TrailSport at Honda Santa Maria takes the rugged spirit of a mid-size SUV and gives it real-world off-road grit. While many SUVs tout an adventurous lifestyle, the new 2026 Honda Passport TrailSport delivers a legitimately capable experience, backed by thoughtful engineering, trail-focused design, and confidence-inspiring features that make it more than just a weekend warrior.
Rugged Design Meets Real Capability
The 2026 Honda Passport TrailSport doesn't just look the part-it's equipped for serious terrain. Its bold, boxy design cues are more than cosmetic; the updated platform, shared with the three-row Honda Pilot, features a stiffer structure and revised suspension. With fortified control arms and steering knuckles, this SUV is built to take on tougher environments than its predecessor.
Exclusive to 2026 Honda Passport TrailSport models are knobby General Grabber A/T Sport all-terrain tires wrapped around 18-inch wheels with recessed rims and sunken valve stems-designed to reduce damage on rocky terrain. Dual orange-painted recovery points on the front bumper don't just add flair; they're rated to support double the vehicle's weight and are designed to detach in the event of a crash. These tow hooks are easy to access-unlike on some rival models-providing practical peace of mind on the trail in Paso Robles.
Off-Road Tech That Works
The 2026 Honda Passport TrailSport benefits from improved ground clearance, now at 8.3 inches, plus steel skid plates that shield the oil pan, transmission, and fuel tank. New shorter overhangs improve approach angles to 23 degrees, making steep ascents easier than ever.
Thanks to standard torque-vectoring all-wheel drive, Trail mode, and a quicker-reacting rear differential with 40 percent more torque capacity, the 2026 Honda Passport TrailSport responds to terrain with smart traction distribution. Up to 70 percent of engine torque can be sent to the rear, and 100 percent of that power can be directed to the wheel with grip-mimicking a locking differential. Whether you're tackling rocky inclines or navigating sand, the 2026 Honda Passport TrailSport adapts to keep you moving forward.
When the trail descends, Hill Descent Control engages to manage your speed smoothly, and the available TrailWatch camera system (exclusive to the 2026 Honda Passport TrailSport trim) offers four camera views at low speeds-perfect for tight trails and technical driving.
Comfortable, Practical, and Adventure-Ready
Inside the 2026 Honda Passport TrailSport, durable materials meet practical design. Water-resistant synthetic leather seats with orange contrast stitching and "TrailSport" badging hint at its off-road intentions, while still offering easy clean-up after muddy excursions. Want more luxury? The 2026 Honda Passport TrailSport Elite trim adds perforated leather seating and a broader color palette.
This model doesn't skimp on comfort. A longer wheelbase-now 113.6 inches-adds 1.3 inches of rear legroom, and rear cargo space increases to 44 cubic feet, expanding to 84 cubic feet with the rear seats down. For long trips or gear-heavy adventures, this SUV brings the space and flexibility you need.
Under the hood, a 285-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 engine pairs with a new 10-speed automatic transmission for smoother shifts and solid power delivery. Even with its rugged tires and upgraded suspension, the 2026 Honda Passport TrailSport maintains a composed ride on pavement. A retuned steering rack and new electronic brake booster further enhance road manners without compromising capability.
