About the 2024 Honda Passport S
Our scoring places the 2024 Honda Passport S at 8.0/10 overall, which translates to a Recommended rating for this suv. Its strongest dimension is Safety at 8.7/10, while Value at 7.3/10 is where it trails the competition most noticeably. It's a solid all-rounder that delivers across most dimensions without obvious deal-breakers.
Reliability and safety are the two dimensions that matter most for long-term ownership costs. We score reliability at 8.4/10 — better than most direct rivals, if short of the segment's best. The 8.7/10 safety score puts it near the top of the class on this dimension; the official trim-level results at nhtsa.gov are worth a final check.
Performance is a genuine highlight at 8.0/10. The Honda Passport S delivers engaging driving dynamics — responsive handling, meaningful power delivery, and a drivetrain that rewards spirited driving without sacrificing daily usability. Tech rates a reasonable 7.4/10: the essentials are covered and well executed, but rivals at the same price often include more as standard.
Priced from $46,345–$59,011, 22 MPG, seating 5, the Honda Passport S sits in the premium tier of the suv category. The 7.3/10 value score says the pricing is fair rather than generous; cross-shop the segment before signing anything. At 2 years old, it's recent enough that the core feature set holds up well against current competition.
Our take: The 2024 Honda Passport S is a solid, well-rounded suv that covers the essentials without obvious deal-breakers. For most buyers in this segment, it's a safe, dependable choice.
