Our team at Basney Honda in Mishawaka often gets questions about towing capacities of the Honda vehicles in our inventory. Here's a quick look at the Honda Passport's towing capacity.
How Much Can a Honda Passport Tow?
The towing capacity of the Honda Passport ranges from 3,500 to 5,000 pounds. We have a new Honda Passport inventory available right now at Basney Honda near South Bend. This towing capacity range also applies to many used Honda Passport models dating back to 2012 models.
Towing capacity changes according to the engine, transmission, and type of drivetrain: two-wheel drive, four-wheel drive, or all-wheel drive. Two-wheel drivetrains are either front-wheel or rear-wheel drive. In addition, engine horsepower, engine torque, and automatic versus manual transmission impact towing capacity.
What Exactly is Towing Capacity?
Towing capacity is the maximum amount of weight your vehicle can safely pull. The weight changes based on how you configure your Honda Passport. Generally, it's always best to tow less than your vehicle's maximum towing capacity.
The maximum loaded weight of your vehicle in Elkhart fluctuates according to the weight of your cargo, the number of passengers, the fluids your Honda Passport requires, and the weight of your trailer or camper.
