Folsom Lake Honda Presents a comparison: 2024 Honda CR-V and 2024 Honda Passport

The 2024 Honda CR-V and 2024 Honda Passport are two standout SUVs, offering a blend of comfort, versatility, and advanced features that make them ideal choices for families and adventure lovers alike. Both models are designed with spacious interiors, providing comfortable five-passenger seating and a host of modern amenities to enhance every journey. At Folsom Lake Honda, we know that choosing the perfect SUV is a big decision, and buyers want all the details to make an informed choice. While the CR-V and Passport may seem alike at first glance, there are key differences that make each model unique—differences that could be the deciding factor for customers across Sacramento, Folsom, Roseville, Shingle Springs, Elk Grove, Rancho Cordova, and beyond.

Engine Specs and Towing Capacity

With two exciting powertrain options, there’s a 2024 Honda CR-V to suit every driver’s needs! The gas-powered LX, EX, and EX-L trims come equipped with a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine, delivering an energetic 190 horsepower and 179 lb-ft of torque. This engine is paired with a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) for smooth acceleration. Front-wheel drive (FWD) comes standard, but you can opt for all-wheel drive (AWD) for enhanced traction and control. Even without the hybrid setup, these trims impress with a combined fuel efficiency of 30 MPG, making the gas-powered CR-V an efficient choice for daily commuting and long trips alike. If you’re looking for even more performance and efficiency, the 2024 Honda CR-V hybrid trims are here to deliver. The Sport, Sport-L, and Sport Touring models are powered by a 2.0-liter gas engine combined with dual electric motors, producing a robust 204 horsepower and 247 lb-ft of torque. Not only do these hybrid models offer a sportier driving experience, but they also provide a towing capacity of up to 1,000 pounds. And with a remarkable 40 MPG combined, the hybrid CR-V is a smart choice for drivers who want to maximize fuel savings without sacrificing power. For those seeking more muscle under the hood, the 2024 Honda Passport steps up with its 3.5-liter V6 engine, mated to a nine-speed automatic transmission. With 280 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque, the Passport stands out as one of the most powerful midsize SUVs available, delivering quick acceleration and strong performance both on and off the road. Whether you’re towing a boat or loading up for a camping trip, the Passport has you covered with a towing capacity of up to 5,000 pounds. While its fuel economy is slightly lower than the CR-V’s, the Passport still offers respectable ratings of 19 MPG in the city and 24 MPG on the highway, making it a solid choice for adventure-ready drivers.

Cargo Space Comparison

The 2024 Honda CR-V offers the perfect blend of spaciousness and agility, making it easy to navigate city streets while still providing ample cargo room. With seating for five passengers and 36.3 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row, you’ll have plenty of room for all your essentials. Need more space? Fold down the second row, and the cargo area expands to a generous 76.5 cubic feet, perfect for larger items. Opt for the gas-powered EX or EX-L models, and you can even lower the rear load floor to gain an additional 3 cubic feet, giving you extra flexibility for those bulkier loads. For those seeking adventure, the 2024 Honda Passport is the ultimate companion for carrying all your gear. Designed with explorers in mind, the Passport provides a substantial 50.5 cubic feet of storage space behind the second row. Need even more room? Fold down the 60/40-split backseat, and you’ll get an impressive 100.8 cubic feet of cargo space—ideal for camping gear, sports equipment, or any other adventure supplies. Plus, the Passport includes a bonus 2.5 cubic feet of hidden storage under the floor, offering even more space for your valuables.

Trim Options

Both the 2024 Honda CR-V and 2024 Honda Passport excel with feature-packed trim lineups, offering a variety of options to suit different driving needs. The CR-V offers a mix of gas-powered and hybrid models, while the Passport’s three trims all come with standard all-wheel drive (AWD). Starting with the 2024 Honda CR-V, the base LX trim is equipped with a 7-inch infotainment touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, LED headlights, 17-inch wheels, and push-button start, providing plenty of tech and convenience. The EX trim builds on this with 18-inch wheels, a one-touch power-sliding moonroof, heated front seats, and a 10-way power-adjustable driver’s seat. For a more upscale experience, the EX-L adds leather upholstery, a larger 9-inch touchscreen, a 320-watt eight-speaker audio system, and a wireless phone charger. For those interested in hybrid options, the CR-V Sport trim offers a sportier design with gloss-black exterior accents, 18-inch black wheels, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob. The Sport-L Hybrid enhances convenience with features like a power liftgate, front and rear parking sensors, and a 9-inch touchscreen. At the top of the lineup, the Sport Touring Hybrid comes standard with AWD, a premium 12-speaker Bose audio system, built-in navigation, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and 19-inch wheels, offering the ultimate in technology and performance. On the 2024 Honda Passport side, the base EX-L trim kicks things off with 20-inch wheels, a power-operated liftgate, tri-zone climate control, leather upholstery, and an 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The TrailSport trim takes things off-road with a rugged suspension, all-terrain tires, and a unique exterior design. Inside, it features leather seats with orange stitching, ambient lighting, embedded navigation, and all-weather floor mats. For a truly bold look, the Black Edition trim includes a black grille, black exterior trim and badging, 20-inch gloss-black wheels, a hands-free access power tailgate, and premium perforated red leather seats with red stitching, along with a 540-watt 10-speaker premium audio system.
