I'm actually glad the moon roof is not larger. I don't need all that glass to attract heat here in S. E, TX. And I do really like the ratcheting-arm rest. I like that its' adjustable. Really enjoying my new, Obsidian Blue, Touring, 2WD, Passport. Great review here.
I really like the Passport. It’s not too small and not too big plus it’s a V6 which is great also. Lots of cool features and cargo room. Cooled seats ought to be standard on the Elite trim. Nice review! 👍👍
Looking for a new SUV preferably hybrid as I have been driving 2 lackluster Prius's for 15 years. Your videos are so educational and helpful. Thank YOU❣
Perfect size SUV for family of 3+dog going to the cottage on weekends. Also, when I see that trunk open all I think is golf bags fitting sideways perfectly.
I think this will be a better buy than the Chevy Blazer because of the Honda reliability and standard suite of safety equipment and the V6 across all trims. As for comparison with the new 2020 Subaru Outback, I suspect the Subaru (with standard AWD) will be priced lower than this Honda, but we will have to wait until it is released to do a comparison.
Quite a few tech items to aide the driver...good comfort ...Great motor and tranny...not much not to like All for 40 not 50K...not the deal value of a Subaru ..but hard to argue "It's a Honda" resale above average Base model cheaper...and it's a l👀ker......no one will question the decision to buy this Honda...It's got it all Good Job Tom...as always
Glad I am not the only one that wishes this had a solid armrest. I also wish the interior was truly designed for those that would actually use it that way; such as, a rubberized flooring (like the old Element).
For those who talk about the arm rest, you guys need to think about us short people. For me a car without the individual captain arm rest like shown here is near impossible to drive. In fact, they removed this feature from CRV’s so when it was time to return my lease I decided to purchase a CRV just to return to the dealer the next day and return the new car to purchase my old leased car due to how uncomfortable it was for me to drive as my elbow could not not reach the center console while I was driving. Therefore, to me this is HUGE plus and I only hope they put this back into a CRV as I have been waiting for them to bring this feature cal to purchase a new one. I would buy this one if the pilot in a heart beat but si can’t really afford to pay more than what a CRV cost. I have read lots of reviews online with the same complain because not everyone out there is tall and mostly women appreciate the individual arm rests as well as the great space in between the seats to put our purse and other things without anyone knowing it’s there.
The Passport is nice, and has a higher output non turbo V6 engine and real transmission, not a CVT. The engine with the 100 extra horsepower over the Forester and others Trumps anything in it's class. The Elite is really well equipped and appointed, but expensive. The Sport is more affordable, but the one Black I saw today was just over $36K before the $3K dealership scalping. You would think for about $1500 over the Civic Sport, it could have had the upgraded radio, instead of the basic one, but I heard even the Sport has a subwoofer near the temporary spare tire. They have aftermarket radios with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a CD player, but I don't know how all the vehicles features integrated into the radio, including the backup camera monitor would be retained, as I don't think those aftermarket decks accommodate those features. Honda should make it easy to get the upgraded radio and easily swap it with the base radio in their vehicles. Other than the usual trim and equipment differences, and zonks, it's basically one of the best mid sized SUVs now. The Sport wheels are nice for the entry level, especially more on the street, yet still moderately off road capable here to go off the pavement with our beaches and other unpaved areas...
A great replacement for Subaru Forester as they screwed it completely with CVT and lackluster 2.5 liter, not making it available with a 6 cylinder. If this was rear wheel biased or all time AWD, it would the ultimate SUV. The CX5 has the tiniest seats I’ve ever seen, they are horrible to sit in and the RAV4 seems like it got good competition. Not really sure who else it competes with where reliability is not an issue
If I'm not mistaken, the pilot and ridgeline are all time all wheel drive. They're the same with Acura sh AWD except for the electronics/programming. I believe the passport is as well. They have thrust vectoring which it can send 70% of engine power to the rear wheels and all that to EACH of the rear wheel, left or right depending on turn.
I drove a CRV about 4 years ago and did not enjoy the instrument cluster at all. This cluster is a no for me as well. Honda tries different layouts, but they don't work for me. A line for a tach? Sheesh.
Raiti wanna say I appreciate all your videos. And I'm looking for your opinion. I'm currently looking for a used 2019 passport touring or 2019 highlander XLE. What are your thoughts and which would you chose? Both FWD.
I took a hard look at it at a dealer a couple of weeks back and decided against it. IMHO, Honda is looking to rip people off with this thing. With every other Honda, the Sport models comes with Apple Carplay, but for the Passport, you have to go up to the EX for that. For some offroad, you'd likely want AWD. Having to get the EX for Carplay and AWD makes the vehicle overpriced compared to options from Toyota. I decided the new Rav4 would meet my needs, be a good bit cheaper AND get much better MPG.
I think the RAV4 is a lot smaller than this. This looks to be a lot more comfortable and definitely a lot better-looking. That is I think this is more of a midsize suv whereas the rav 4 is definitely a compact SUV so it's kind of not even in the same class.
Why do people call it a midsize or a compact??? I sat in it the other day and it’s pretty huge. The gas mileage kinda makes you think real hard, instead Honda should have dropped some hp.
Just a quick comment for now on my we work break. The Elite would be my choice for an SUV this size. The Forester Sport next. The Ford Edge ST if I had the extra #, and the 2020 Toyota Rav4 TRD if they would put Androud Auto in it, or if done aftermarket add on is available.
The ZF 9-speed gives me some pause I know there's been a lot of problems with these in the past. Also it looks like it has that digital speedometer. Funny that just is a real show stopper for me I don't know why Honda won't let that go. The rest of this SUV is really nice and probably the best looking Honda I've seen in years. Because in my opinion those edgie wedgie designs don't do anything for me.
I think if i were in the market for a midsize 5 seat crossover, id get either a 4runner trd or a passport touring. I just wish honda would use the accord’s infotainment instead of the pilot’s.
Jake Stoler A 4 Runner is a body on frame truck based SUV,not a crossover.A great vehicle if you need serious off road chops.If not,the Passport should do nicely for most.
I like it man, great contender to upgrade my wife suv, 😂😂. I agree with your comments, I’ll kind miss the arm rest on the center console. Chairs looks a bit like some of the minivans. Can’t remember if you have, but review a top end pilot if you can. Great video Joe, 👍👌
@@JokerG16 Nobody cares what you prefer, you make up a small percent. YT stats say otherwise. People will skip thru your vids or not watch at all. Be consistent with the length of your vids. YT 101
I think Toyota should bring the venza back with more off-road capabilities no need for the FJ cruiser they already have the 4Runner venza would b in the middle of rav4 and highlander just like the passport between CRV and pilot and I mean FJ cruiser too just cause the bronco coming out and is a perfect time to do it with these SUV fever and I would take this over the pilot looks really good and I think is gonna sell like hot cakes I think is gonna sell more than the CRV in the future
Is this a more choppier ride then the pilot? Any feedback from anyone appreciated. Not sure what hondas goal was with this i wont be doing any offroading just need a smooth ride.
@@RaitisRides LOL, no, I'm referring to the 2-row mid sized crossover segment, like the RX, Murano, Blazer, RDX. SUV, or more accurately, Crossover, isn't a segment, it's an entire genre.
Honda uses something called Cabin Stretcher, everyone knows that, next time when you meet a Honda person from the corporate, ask them about it. That’s how they increase the cargo space in every model. Even Honda Jason has said in one of his videos!
Can't tow anything with that Passport, it doesn't have a hitch receiver (and haven't seen an option for it on the Honda website). What, no VTM-4 lock, how do you keep in it locked into lower gears, ie 1st and 2nd gear?. And Honda, go back to the "Lane Watch" camera's, much better than the orange lights.

Recently, I have been driven by Range Rover Sport, from 2019, and to my surprise the same type of armrest is there with roller wheel that let you position armrest per your preference. My wife loves Pilot, and area between two armrest on front seats she use for her purse. Her comment is finally I can have my purse next to me, here. I’m more for full size armrest between front seats. Somehow it goes with SUVs.

"Do some research?" Uncalled for reply. A cubby is a cubby. Literally. If there is not a CD player, then there is a Cubby. The Honda engineers should have taken into consideration what would be in the vehicle without a CD. the engineers apparently did not take that into consideration... Or perhaps they did. But we see the results of that decision.
@@RaitisRides darn i was hoping. but this goes too show how little if any, tht i know about suvs. im going too check out your subaru videos n see what i can find. thank you mr. raiti for responding too my questiin.
With all that cargo space you don’t need a luggage rack, I for one don’t want my luggage hanging out on the roof of my car, and it has nothing to do with saving costs as they are extremely inexpensive to install, consumers just basically stated they don’t use them or like how they look and they got rid of them
I don’t like that the rack wasn’t included being that this is a SUV. Huge disappointment......it’s a part of the SUV styling. They’re saving money but overpricing include the darn roof racks for the SUV.
I would guess Honda Passport and Pilot are targeting women. That armrest you,including me, not prefer is ideal for women purse to set on top of slider of big storage.
@@nizapad6970 I was disappointed by their new Forester which I was waiting for, so I won't bet too much on their Outback. However, their new Legacy sure is a nice surprise.
The RDX is getting very bad owner reviews though. Lots of turn-ins with less than 12k miles. Infotainment and transmission issues. Shame. It IS a beauty, just seems they should have done more quality control.
Get a clue, not everyone lives in a swamp. I've had 2 Pilots and now a Passport. They are great driving, well engineered, dependable vehicles. When it comes time to trade them in, the resale value destroys any comparable Nissan, Ford, Chevy, Hyundai, or Kia. Buzzy engine? 🙄 That engine will smoothly crank out 150k-200k miles with minimal service needs. #FloridaClueless...
I'm actually glad the moon roof is not larger. I don't need all that glass to attract heat here in S. E, TX. And I do really like the ratcheting-arm rest. I like that its' adjustable.

That not a buzzy engine.. That's the sound of a good n/a v6 motor.

Nice Honda Passport... nice to bringbit back... nice option between the Crv and Pilot...
I couldn't agree more with you! I think overall Honda did a great job!
Oh my, look at the size of that emblem! Is Honda subliminally telling us that size matters?
You better believe it! You better just get the McLaren 720S and skip the 570!

I think you might be on to something! It is going to be interesting to see how this turns out!

The no Armrest is killing me.... I like a big armrest.

I would buy this one if the pilot in a heart beat but si can’t really afford to pay more than what a CRV cost. I have read lots of reviews online with the same complain because not everyone out there is tall and mostly women appreciate the individual arm rests as well as the great space in between the seats to put our purse and other things without anyone knowing it’s there.

The answer for your comment: "Weird Cubby". Do some research. THis is where HOnda will put a CD player if ordered as an Honda accessory.
That should be standard! I am not a sales person and do not recite brochures. Thanks for watching!
"Do some research?" Uncalled for reply.
A cubby is a cubby. Literally. If there is not a CD player, then there is a Cubby. The Honda engineers should have taken into consideration what would be in the vehicle without a CD. the engineers apparently did not take that into consideration... Or perhaps they did. But we see the results of that decision.
Raiti, Vtec motors are buzzy.
Thank you for sharing you input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
heres my question. im looking too buy my mom an suv from honda. jus what honda with awd also comes with manual trans??
None of the above!
@@RaitisRides darn i was hoping. but this goes too show how little if any, tht i know about suvs. im going too check out your subaru videos n see what i can find. thank you mr. raiti for responding too my questiin.
@Shuffle3956 sorry officer grammer didnt c u they're. lol hahaha
Toyota V6 is more smooth right ?
Oh yes it is!
Tows 5000 lbs, comes with hitch installed
Thank you so for sharing your input and perspective on that! I appreciate you watching!
4:10 - Not smart. A few years back, all SUVs used to come with a luggage rack, this was removed by auto manufactures to save costs.
I can totally understand where you are coming from!
With all that cargo space you don’t need a luggage rack, I for one don’t want my luggage hanging out on the roof of my car, and it has nothing to do with saving costs as they are extremely inexpensive to install, consumers just basically stated they don’t use them or like how they look and they got rid of them
I don’t like that the rack wasn’t included being that this is a SUV. Huge disappointment......it’s a part of the SUV styling. They’re saving money but overpricing include the darn roof racks for the SUV.
I'm ZONK that it doesn't come with HUD, AC SEAT
Here in Europe this would be full-size😂
That is so very true! I would love to see what you guys would think about a Chevy Suburban!
Raiti's Rides for chevy suburban you need commercial driver licence. :)
i wached your oder video about the pilot too
Thank you for that!
I would guess Honda Passport and Pilot are targeting women. That armrest you,including me, not prefer is ideal for women purse to set on top of slider of big storage.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on that!
Gotta give it a ZONK. The cargo area is still too small for my wife!
What is she driving now?
@@RaitisRides She's too big to ride in Cargo. I need a flat bed! LOL
Interesting setup.
Looks like a Pilot and Ridgeline
I think that was their goal! lol
It is best until 2020 Subaru Outback is out.
Now that is a very good point!
Subaru looks like a Station wagon.
you giving too much credit on subaru outback, its coming from 18 subaru outback 3.6R
@@nizapad6970 I was disappointed by their new Forester which I was waiting for, so I won't bet too much on their Outback. However, their new Legacy sure is a nice surprise.
@@nizapad6970did you not properly read my comment? 2020 Outback will most likely have 2.4L turbo just like 2020 legacy,
Accord is good enough. Thanks
Thanks for sharing your input and perspective! I really appreciate you taking the time to watch!
Adidas sneakers and Puma sox :o That's a big no-no (at least where I live) !!!
Just like a variety of cars , I also like a variety of shoes! lol
What is the gas mileage
20 city/25 hwy
I’m sure you need a better microphone.
Tere was some interference going on. It is all sorted out!
RDX blows it away..although at a higher cost
That is a very good point!
The RDX is getting very bad owner reviews though. Lots of turn-ins with less than 12k miles. Infotainment and transmission issues. Shame. It IS a beauty, just seems they should have done more quality control.

And requires premium fuel for that turbo.I’d stick with the Passport or a Highlander.
Great view
Thank you so much for watching!
19" wheels? I thought all trims get 20s
You are right Ken! I tripped over my thoughts! Thanks for watching!
Watch how many accidents happen cause of the old fashion e-brake lol
I can totally see it already!
They are asking too much for this truck. Suv pricing is way too high.
It's getting worse everyday!
Get a clue, not everyone lives in a swamp. I've had 2 Pilots and now a Passport. They are great driving, well engineered, dependable vehicles. When it comes time to trade them in, the resale value destroys any comparable Nissan, Ford, Chevy, Hyundai, or Kia. Buzzy engine? 🙄
That engine will smoothly crank out 150k-200k miles with minimal service needs.
#FloridaClueless...
Bad info. The pilot has the same engine and transmission.
Thanks for your input and watching!
The arm rests are excellent for long drives (dude quit your whining)
Not buying those low profile tires
I can totally understand where you are coming from!
2019 Passport, not 2020
Yes I don't know where that came from!
Why Honda never have 360 camera on its.All SUV has that option.Why????????????????/
That is a very good question!

It's a small world!
