Honda Passport Trailsport vs. Toyota 4Runner Off-Road TEST: Can the Honda Keep Up?

Описание: The Toyota 4Runner has carved out an interesting niche for itself. The truck-based, adventure-bound SUV isn’t quite as brawny as the Jeep Wrangler or Ford Bronco, yet it delivers the same level of off-road prowess. And it does so while being more comfortable and more reliable.

The 4Runner doesn’t really have a true rival. Its nearest competitors are either full-on, off-road machines or soft-core mall crawlers. But Honda hopes to bridge the gap—both literally and figuratively—with its new Passport TrailSport.

More than just a dolled-up version of the company’s mid-size SUV, the Passport TrailSport gets a host of real, usable, trail-ready upgrades for the new year. That gives it a fighting chance against the 4Runner—or at least, that’s what Honda wants you to think.

We wanted to find out for ourselves, so we took the SUVs to the Northeast Off-Road Driving School & Adventure Tours (NORA) facility in upstate New York on a rainy spring day to give them a true side-by-side shakedown.
