When Honda unveiled the new Passport, it was to be the largest SUV in the Honda lineup, and it still is. If you are looking for a Toyota model to compare it to, then why not compare it with the Highlander? When it comes to size, it is surely the most comparable, even though Toyota has more than one SUV that is larger than the Highlander in the lineup. We don’t need to look at those though, and we will show you why with our 2019 Toyota Highlander vs 2019 Honda Passport comparison.

---|---|---|
8 | Max Seating | 5 |

295 | Max Horsepower | 280 |
5,000 Pounds | Max Towing | 3,500 Pounds |
Both of these SUVs do have some things in common. They are both about the same length, they both offer all-wheel drive, and they have nearly the same starting MSRP, although the Highlander is still more affordable if you were curious. That is where the similarities end though.
For starters, despite the Passport being only 2 inches shorter than the Highlander, it can only seat a maximum of five people regardless of your configuration. The Highlander seats 7 to 8 people depending on how you configure it. You can decide if you want a three-person bench seat in the second row or second-row captain’s chairs.
Under the hood, the Highlander has two engine options, and the available V6, which comes standard on most of the lineup, cranks out up to 295 horsepower and 263 pound-feet of torque. If that wasn’t impressive enough, even with this power, the Toyota Highlander manages to get better efficiency both on the highway and in the city. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the Toyota Highlander can also easily tow more. In fact, all V6 models can tow up to 5,000 pounds standard.
