Is the Honda Passport Still a Viable Choice?

Updated for the 2024 model year, the Honda Passport has a new Black Edition trim to top the list. But much of it feels a generation older than other Honda SUVs. The Passport still offers great ergonomics to haul plenty of cargo and generally fine driving behavior, too. The Question is how does it feel to drive compared to its newer siblings?

In the above video, I take you through the car, show you what features are offered and how they work. And then I take you on a drive to get a sense of how well it handles, the quality of the ride, and the overall experience.
