Vehicle Highlights
Instead of creating a sport utility from scratch, Honda chose to market a near twin of the Isuzu Rodeo. Both are 4-door wagons with a lift-up rear window and fold-down tailgate.The entry-level DX had a 2.6-liter 4-cylinder engine, 2-wheel drive, and 5-speed manual shift. Stepping up a notch, the Passport LX used a 175-horsepower 3.2-liter V6, with 2- or 4-wheel drive and 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission. Topping the line was the EX, a 4WD V6 model with automatic. Rear antilock brakes work only in 2-wheel drive, and 4WD models have a part-time drive system (not for use on dry pavement).
