Comparison Review

Comfort
The Honda Passport offers a bit more room for passengers in the back seat than the Toyota Highlander. The Toyota Highlander offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the Honda Passport, offering the driver and front passenger a bit more room and comfort.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Honda Passport as you will with the Toyota Highlander, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). When looking only at MSRP, the Honda Passport will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Toyota Highlander.

Dimensions
Since the Honda Passport is much wider than the Toyota Highlander, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. The Honda Passport is slightly shorter than the Toyota Highlander, which may make it easier to park.

Handling
The Honda Passport has a larger turning radius than the Toyota Highlander, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
If you've got something you need to pull, the Honda Passport will do just as well as the Toyota Highlander, since they have about the same towing capacity. The Honda Passport has a little more horsepower than the Toyota Highlander.

Powertrain
With its lower torque engine, the Honda Passport doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Toyota Highlander.

Utility
The Honda Passport has less seating than the Toyota Highlander, making the Toyota Highlander the better choice, if you need to chauffeur many passengers. The Honda Passport has a roomier cargo area for putting your bags or other items than the Toyota Highlander.
