The TrailSport features a suspension overhaul with 28 redesigned or new components, increasing ground clearance to 9.65 inches and improving approach and departure angles.
The RTL base trims have seen minimal changes, with a minor price adjustment and a new exterior color. The result is a Passport lineup where the buying decision hinges on the desired level of off-road capability and trim content. This guide provides dealer invoice prices for all six 2027 Passport configurations and offers tips on how to negotiate a fair price.
2027 Honda Passport Invoice Prices and Trim Levels
The table below shows the MSRP and dealer invoice price for each 2027 Passport trim, all of which come with standard all-wheel drive. Prices are pre-destination, and Honda’s destination charge is $1,595. The front-end margin across the lineup is approximately $1,300 to $1,650, which is relatively thin compared to other midsize SUVs.
The Passport carries a 3.5-liter naturally aspirated V6 engine, producing 280 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. All-wheel drive is standard, and the second-generation i-VTM4 AWD system distributes torque actively between the front and rear axles. The TrailSport trim also features Trail Torque Logic for low-traction surface management.
The RTL is the entry-point trim, featuring a 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster, 12.3-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a range of standard safety features, including adaptive cruise control and lane keeping assist. The RTL Towing variant adds a trailer hitch package, making it a worthwhile upgrade for buyers who plan to tow regularly.
The TrailSport trim is where the 2027 Passport earns its updates, with a suspension overhaul that raises ground clearance to 9.65 inches and improves approach and departure angles. The TrailSport also features all-terrain tires, a revised front fascia, and a range of standard features, including TrailWatch and a heated steering wheel. At approximately $48,545 invoice, the TrailSport is the volume trim of the Passport lineup.

For buyers who want a more premium experience, the TrailSport Elite steps up the interior content, adding a 12-speaker Bose premium audio system, ventilated front seats, and a hands-free power liftgate. The Elite rides on 18-inch Berlina Black Machine Face alloys and is the complete-package configuration of the Passport lineup.
Negotiating a Fair Price for the 2027 Honda Passport
When negotiating, it is essential to know the invoice price of any add-ons, such as extended warranties or appearance packages. Honda Care extended warranty, for example, can be priced directly from Honda, rather than through the dealership’s F&I menu, where it may be marked up. By being informed and prepared, buyers can drive away in their new 2027 Honda Passport with a fair price and a sense of satisfaction. The 2027 Passport measures 191.5 inches long, 79.4 inches wide, and 73.1 inches tall on the RTL, with the TrailSport standing 1.4 inches taller at 74.5 inches due to the raised suspension.
Cargo volume behind the second row is 44 cubic feet on all trims, and 83.8 to 104.6 cubic feet with the rear seats folded on the RTL. The TrailSport has slightly less usable volume due to its taller body.
The Passport is a true two-row midsize, with all interior volume serving five occupants and their gear. The 2027 Honda Passport carries Honda’s standard warranty package, including 3-year/36,000-mile bumper-to-bumper and 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain coverage.
Warranty and Maintenance
The wheelbase is 113.6 inches on RTL trims and 113.8 inches on TrailSport trims. Honda’s facility in Lincoln, Alabama, is the exclusive manufacturing location for the 2027 Passport. The HTX app, which provides digital trail guides and routing integrated with the vehicle, is compatible with the 2027 Passport TrailSport.
