Is the 2021 Honda Passport a good car?

Yes — the 2021 Honda Passport earns a 4.8/5 user rating and an 8.00/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Look and feel and Safety.

Owners consistently praise its comfort, spaciousness, smooth handling, cargo space, and audio quality. It also stands out as a practical two-row SUV that blends everyday livability with a more adventurous personality.

Is the 2021 Honda Passport reliable?

Owners rate it 4.8/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback points to a dependable, trouble-free ownership experience, with repeated praise for comfort, spaciousness, and the kind of everyday usability that helps a vehicle feel easy to live with over time. The expert evaluation also describes it as offering reliability alongside the comfortable ride and strong standard content.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is less about outright durability and more about whether the specific vehicle has been maintained well and avoids the comfort or transmission complaints some owners mention.

What should I look for when buying a used 2021 Honda Passport?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 76.6% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still check the history report carefully, because accident-free listings are common but not universal. Prioritize a thorough inspection of the transmission feel, seat comfort, and overall interior condition, since those are the areas most likely to affect your day-to-day satisfaction. It also makes sense to compare trim equipment closely, because the Passport’s value changes a lot as you move up the range.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Sport is the entry point and includes 20-inch alloy wheels, LED fog lights, push-button start, tri-zone climate control, a seven-speaker audio system, and a one-touch fold-down rear bench. The EX-L adds leather upholstery, a power moonroof, a power rear liftgate, walk-away auto-locking, and more power-adjustable seating. The Touring adds front-and-rear parking sensors, a hands-free liftgate, a 115-volt outlet, an upgraded 10-speaker stereo, satellite-linked navigation, and a WiFi hotspot. The Elite adds heated and ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, rain-sensing windshield wipers, and wireless device charging.
• Powertrain: Every trim uses a 3.5-liter V6 with 280 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque paired with a nine-speed automatic. Front-wheel drive is standard, all-wheel drive is optional, and the V6 is described as strong with well-managed power delivery.
• Safety package: Standard equipment includes automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability. Blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and front-and-rear parking sensors are available, with some of those features appearing on higher trims.
• Infotainment: The Passport gets an 8-inch touchscreen, standard Android Auto, and standard Apple CarPlay. The system does not include the most modern interface experience, with dated graphics and a confusing menu layout.
• Fuel efficiency: The FWD model returns 20 mpg city, 25 mpg highway, and 22 mpg combined. With AWD, it returns 19 mpg city, 24 mpg highway, and 21 mpg combined.

Which 2021 Honda Passport trim should I buy?

The 2021 Honda Passport is offered in 4 trim levels: Sport, EX-L, Touring, and Elite.

Here's the short version:

• Sport: This is the value play if you want the Passport’s core strengths without paying for luxury extras. You still get the V6, standard smartphone integration, tri-zone climate control, and a solid set of everyday features, making it the best starting point for budget-minded shoppers.
• EX-L: This is the best-value trim for many buyers because it adds leather, a moonroof, a power liftgate, and more convenience features without jumping all the way to the top of the range. If you want the Passport to feel more upscale, this is the trim to target.
• Touring: Choose this if you want more convenience and tech, including parking sensors, navigation, a WiFi hotspot, and an upgraded stereo. It makes sense if you spend a lot of time on the road and want a more premium daily driver.
• Elite: This is the luxury-focused choice, adding heated and ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, rain-sensing wipers, and wireless charging. It suits you best if comfort and convenience matter more than price.

The safety package includes standard automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and adaptive cruise control, with blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert available.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2021 Honda Passport?

This is a moderate buyer’s market, so you can shop selectively without expecting huge discounts everywhere.

• Deal availability: 33.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 972 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 6.05% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 76.6% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $23,987, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2021 Honda Passport's resale value?

The current average of $24,411 sits slightly below last year's $25,984.

That decline suggests the Passport has become a bit more buyer-friendly in the used market, which can help you if you're shopping now. For a future seller, it means pricing discipline matters: vehicles that are clean, well-equipped, and well maintained should hold up better than average examples.

The year-round range also shows that values have stayed fairly contained, which can support resale stability if your Passport is in strong condition. Strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.8/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2021 Honda Passport safe?

The 2021 Honda Passport earns an overall rating of five out of five stars from NHTSA, and the IIHS gave it top "Good" scores in most crash tests, with an "Acceptable" rating in the passenger-side small overlap front crash test.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

Standard safety equipment includes automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go functionality. Available driver-assistance features include blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and front-and-rear parking sensors.

The main caveat is that the Passport only managed "Acceptable" ratings for headlights and child-seat anchor ease of use, and its front crash prevention tech received a second-tier "Advanced" rating.

Should I buy a 2021 Honda Passport or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2021 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2021 if:

• 33.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 76.6% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 6.05% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.8/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It carries over largely unchanged but adds standard Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and an 8-inch touchscreen.

Consider the 2020 if:

• At $22,585, the 2020 costs less than the current year's $24,411 average.
• It offers a comfortable, practical two-row crossover with a straightforward carryover setup.

Consider the 2022 if:

• At $29,608, the 2022 costs more than the current year's $24,411 average.
• It adds a light restyle, TrailSport branding, revised wheels, fresh colors, and new safety features.

The bottom line: The 2021 is the right pick if you want the Passport’s strongest mix of comfort, capability, and standard tech without paying the premium of the newer model year. If your priority is saving money, the 2020 is the better value path; if you want fresher styling and added updates, the 2022 is the upgrade path to consider.
