Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about comparing the 2025 Honda Passport and 2026 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque.

How does the power difference between the 2025 Passport and the 2026 Evoque affect driving dynamics?

The Passport possesses a clear advantage with 280 horsepower driving the wheels, suggesting stronger straight-line acceleration than the Evoque's 246 horsepower. While the Evoque does post higher torque figures at 269 lb-ft versus 262 lb-ft, the Passport's higher top-end power should provide a more exciting experience at higher speeds.

Which crossover is better equipped for long family road trips based on specs?

The 2025 Honda Passport is significantly better for families needing cargo space, boasting 50.5 cu ft. The Evoque, at 21.4 cu ft, offers less than half the usable room, which could strain packing for longer excursions.

Does the Evoque's better gas mileage compensate for its higher price and premium fuel requirement?

The Evoque achieves 22 combined MPG on premium fuel, whereas the Passport gets 21 combined MPG on regular unleaded. While the Evoque is technically more efficient, the $7,500 initial price difference and the added recurring cost of premium fuel will likely negate any savings from the 1 MPG advantage.

How do the exterior dimensions of these two AWD crossovers compare?

The Honda Passport is substantially larger, measuring 189.1 inches in length and 72.2 inches in height, giving it a more imposing presence. The Evoque is far more compact at 172.1 inches long and 64.9 inches high, making it easier to navigate and park in tight urban settings.

Since both use a 9-speed automatic transmission, will their driving feel be similar?

While both utilize a 9-speed shiftable automatic transmission, the transmission behavior will be tuned differently based on the engine's character. The Passport’s setup is designed to manage its 280 hp output, while the Evoque’s calibration will prioritize maximizing the efficiency of its 246 hp engine.

Is the Evoque’s 269 lb-ft of torque useful if it has less horsepower than the Passport?

High torque at lower RPMs, like the Evoque’s 269 lb-ft, generally translates to strong pull right off the line or when moving heavy loads slowly. However, the Passport's superior 280 hp will provide better sustained acceleration once cruising speed is reached.
