A report says Honda will give the Accord sharper styling and the Passport a tougher look.
It appears as though Honda is preparing a serious overhaul for both its Passport SUV and Honda Accord sedan for the 2028 model year. According to a report from Automotive News, the Accord is due for “pretty major” changes, while the Passport is expected to get a tougher design and an even more off-road-focused Trail Sport trim. The redesigned models will reportedly reach the market in the second half of 2027.
Passport TrailSport Taking Aim at Toyota TRDThe Honda Passport is expected to push even deeper into rugged-SUV territory with styling that further addresses the growing consumer appetite for more off-road themed models. Leading that charge will be an updated Passport TrailSport, which is expected to get a revised suspension with extra ride height to further boost its already respectable off-road capability. If Honda really wants its TrailSport-branded models like the Passport to square off with Toyota’s TRD offerings, it will need to keep moving them in a more extreme direction.
