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, and smooth handling, and many also value the cargo space and audio quality. The Passport’s appeal is strongest if you want a two-row midsize SUV that feels more adventurous than a typical family hauler while still working well for daily use. The main trade-offs are an irritating transmission and uncomfortable seats, and some shoppers may also miss ventilated seats. With 33.5% of listings marked as good or great deals, there’s meaningful market opportunity if you find the right example.

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 vehicle that feels dependable, comfortable, and easy to live with over time. Reviewers also highlight its smooth handling and the sense that it delivers strong everyday value, especially for cargo space and audio quality. The expert evaluation reinforces that it offers a comfortable ride and reliability, which supports confidence for used buyers.

If you’re shopping used, the biggest long-term risk is less about outright durability and more about finding one that has been maintained well and still feels fresh inside.

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

At 74.6% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a careful inspection of bodywork, alignment, and interior condition. Because the Passport is often chosen for comfort and daily usability, it’s worth paying close attention to seat condition, cabin wear, and how the transmission feels on a test drive. If you’re comparing multiple listings, focus on the ones that best preserve the Passport’s comfort and practicality.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Sport 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 power-adjustable front seats. 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 transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard, all-wheel drive is available, 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 that can stop and go with traffic. Available features include blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and front-and-rear parking sensors.
• Infotainment: The Passport gets an 8-inch touchscreen with standard Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The system’s graphics and menus are dated, and the volume control setup is awkward.
• Fuel efficiency: The front-wheel-drive model returns 20 mpg city, 25 mpg highway, and 22 mpg combined. With all-wheel drive, 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 at the lowest entry point. You still get the V6, standard smartphone integration, tri-zone climate control, and a useful rear seat setup, so it covers the basics well without pushing the price up.
• EX-L: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it adds the comfort and convenience upgrades many buyers will notice every day, including leather upholstery, a power moonroof, a power liftgate, and power-adjustable front seats.
• Touring: Choose this if you want a more premium feel and more convenience tech, especially the upgraded stereo, navigation, parking sensors, and WiFi hotspot.
• Elite: This is the trim for you if you want the most comfort-focused Passport, with heated and ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, rain-sensing wipers, and wireless charging.

The safety package is strong across the lineup, with advanced driver-assistance features included and additional aids available on higher trims.

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

The market looks selective rather than overheated, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 33.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,011 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 5.48% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 74.6% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $23,947, 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 $23,947 sits slightly below last year's $25,335.

That softer pricing suggests the Passport has already absorbed some depreciation, which can help future sellers if they buy at the right price today. A lower entry cost can make it easier to preserve value later, especially if you choose a well-kept example with desirable equipment. Strong demand for comfortable, spacious SUVs can also help support resale interest over time.

Vehicles with 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 five-star ratings from NHTSA and top "Good" scores in most IIHS 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 capability. Available driver-assistance features include blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and front-and-rear parking sensors. The main caveat is that the IIHS passenger-side small overlap result is only acceptable, and headlights and child-seat anchor ease of use also rate as acceptable.

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:

• 33.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 74.6% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 5.48% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.8/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It carries over largely unchanged but adds some additional features.

Consider the 2020 if:

• At $22,085, the 2020 costs less than the current year's $23,947 average.
• It emphasizes rugged comfort and trail-ready capability.

Consider the 2022 if:

• At $29,022, the 2022 costs more than the current year's $23,947 average.
• It adds a light restyle, TrailSport trim, and new safety features.

The bottom line: The 2021 is the best all-around choice if you want the Passport’s comfort, space, and value balance without paying more for the newer model year. If you’re especially price-sensitive, the 2020 is the cheaper path; if you want newer styling and added features, the 2022 is the upgrade path.
