About this generation

The third generation Passport was unveiled at the Los Angeles Auto Show on November 27, 2018, with retail sales starting in February 2019 for the 2019 model year. Unlike previous generations, it was designed in the United States and is manufactured in Lincoln, Alabama alongside the Honda Pilot. It is based on the third-generation Honda Pilot, although the Passport is shorter in length and loses the Pilot's third-row seating.

The Passport slots between the smaller CR-V and longer Pilot, filling the gap left when the Honda Crosstour was discontinued after the 2015 model year. The Passport competes against 2-row five-seater midsize crossovers like the Chevrolet Blazer, Ford Edge, Nissan Murano, and Hyundai Santa Fe. Trim levels at launch included the base "Sport", mid-level "EX-L", "Touring", and the top-of-the-line "Elite”. Unlike most other Honda nameplates like the CR-V and Pilot, the Passport does not have an LX trim.

Consequently, the price of the Passport in Sport trim started above that of the contemporary Pilot in LX trim. All trim levels included front-wheel drive (FWD) as standard equipment, with all-wheel drive (AWD) optional, except for the "Elite", where it is standard equipment. All Passport models are equipped with a 3.5L J35Y6 V6 producing; paired with a nine-speed, push button-controlled automatic transmission also found in the Ridgeline and Pilot.

Front-wheel drive is standard; Honda's all-wheel drive system, dubbed i-VTM4 (Intelligent Variable Torque Management), is optional, and features drive settings for Normal, Sand, Snow, and Mud. A two-speed transfer case is not available. Ground clearance is for front-wheel drive models and for all-wheel drive models and the Passport can tow up. Two rows of seats provide room for five passengers. There is of storage behind the rear seat, which increases to with the rear seat folded.

On April 1, 2019, Honda released a YouTube advertisement for the 2019 Passport. The advertisement featured a 2019 Passport, called the "Past-Port", with a first-generation Passport's interior, touting features that were popular in the mid-to-late-1990s, including automatic power windows, an audio system with cassette player and cassette adapter and pager holder. The advertisement features an actor wearing 1990s-era clothing, and holding a Motorola cellular phone.

Viewers of the advertisement could also call a special toll free number, 1-833-PAST-PORT (1-833-727-8767), where they would be greeted by a voice message from Fred Savage, and could then leave a voicemail on Honda's microcassette answering machine explaining why they would like to own a 2019 Past-Port. The advertisement is no longer viewable on Honda's YouTube channel as of May 2019, and the toll free number is no longer in service.

In October 2020, for the 2021 model year, all trims received the 8-inch touchscreen and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard equipment. The Passport was facelifted in November 2021 for the 2022 model year with a new front end design similar to the facelifted second-generation Honda Ridgeline as well as the addition of a new TrailSport trim level that offers a more aggressive off-road-oriented appearance package.

The TrailSport model receives model specific bumpers, cosmetic skid plate inserts, all-weather TrailSport-logoed floormats, as well as all-season tires with a more aggressive shoulder tread. For the 2022 model year, the Sport and Touring trims were also dropped, leaving a simplified lineup of three trims: EX-L, TrailSport and Elite. In 2022, for the 2023 model year, the front-wheel drive EX-L option was discontinued from the lineup, therefore all-wheel drive became standard on all Passport models.

In October 2023, for the 2024 model year, changes include a larger center console and new armrest. The top Elite trim has been replaced with the Black Edition trim.
