The may have one fewer row than the , but that doesn't mean it's going to be cheaper. In fact, it's a little more expensive than both the Pilot and the starting prices of its competitors.

The 2019 Honda Passport will start at $33,035 (including destination) for the base Sport trim with front-wheel drive. Standard equipment on this model includes Sensing, the automaker's suite of active and passive safety systems, in addition to LED headlights, keyless entry and three-zone automatic climate control. Adding all-wheel drive to this or any trim costs $1,900 more, except for the Elite trim, where it's standard.

This puts the Passport's price just a little above its primary competitors. The 2019 , for example, comes in at $29,995 including destination. The comes in underneath the Passport at $31,990, and the also squeaks in at $32,315.

The Passport's $37,455 EX-L trim adds kit like leather seats, a power moonroof, power heated front seats and an infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The Touring trim, which rings in at $40,325, gets even fancier with navigation, a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, parking sensors, heated rear seats and ambient lighting.

At the tippy top of the Passport's range is the $44,725 Elite. All-wheel drive is standard here, and the trim also includes ventilated front seats, auto-dimming side mirrors, a heated steering wheel, rain-sensing wipers and a wireless device charger. It's still on the expensive side in the segment, but it closes the gap against cars like the $43,450 Ford Edge ST, $45,130 Nissan Murano Platinum and $43,895 Chevy Blazer Premier. The 4Runner's TRD Pro trim is still the price king at $47,710, though.
