vs 2023 Kia Sorento in Elmhurst, IL
The world is waiting — get behind the wheel of the new 2023 Honda Passport and make the most of what life has in store. From daily errands to unforgettable family road trips, this midsize SUV has the power and versatility to take on anything you need it to. You’ll have comfortable seating for five passengers whenever you need it, and when it’s time to transport extra groceries or bulky furniture instead, the second row of seats folds down to reveal 77.7 cubic feet of cargo capacity.1 The Honda Passport isn’t just flexible when it comes to its interior, however; it’s agile enough to take on a wide variety of road conditions, too. Thanks to its standard Intelligent Traction Management system, this model is specifically designed to take on snow, sand and mud with ease — and it also comes standard with an iVTM4® All-Wheel-Drive System, providing you with even more confidence and protection when it comes to driving on tricky road surfaces. And speaking of safety, the Honda Passport comes equipped with a standard suite of Honda Sensing® Driver Assistive Features that will help you drive safer, whether you’re venturing off road or just driving through town.
With all of this and more, we’re confident that the 2023 Honda Passport is the new SUV you should choose. However, if you’re also considering the 2023 Kia Sorento, take a look at how these two SUVs compare.

While these two SUVs have some notable similarities, the 2023 Honda Passport truly stands out when you compare their differences. Both models can be equipped with powerful engines, but it’s worth noting that the Honda Passport comes standard with a 3.5-liter V6 engine, while you’d have to upgrade to a higher Kia Sorento trim to get that model’s 2.4-liter, 4-cylinder turbocharged engine option. The Honda Passport has the capability to tow a whopping 5,000 pounds, while the Kia Sorento can only haul 3,500 pounds, meaning the Honda is a better choice if you plan to tow a camper or large trailer with your new SUV.2,3 The two models are nearly tied when it comes to horsepower, and they both offer available hands-free power tailgates and available roof rails. But when it comes to interior comforts, the Honda Passport takes the lead again, offering standard heated, leather-trimmed front seats and tri-zone climate control. Although the Kia Sorento puts up a good fight, it just can’t compete with all the 2023 Honda Passport has to offer.
