Meridian Honda Gets Ready for All-new 2019 Honda Passport to Arrive
New crossover SUV offers a V-6 engine, selectable driving modes and a full suite of connectivity options.
MERIDIAN, Miss., Dec. 14, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Meridian Honda has already taken delivery of several 2019 models into its showroom. However, an announcement by the automaker at the 2018 Los Angeles Auto Show at the end of November has dealership staff working out how to clear out some additional space. Honda will be adding to its crossover SUV lineup with the 2019 Honda Passport and its mix of strong performance, confident handling and flexible interior. In addition to welcoming a new member of the family, some of the most popular models on the Honda roster can also be found at Meridian Honda, which is ready to take on the best of what the competition has to offer.
When the 2019 Honda Passport is available for sale or lease at Meridian Honda, it will fit ahead of the popular Honda CR-V and behind the Honda Pilot. Future buyers of the 2019 Honda Passport will have four trim levels to choose from, Sport, EX-L, Touring and Elite. Each of them will be powered by a naturally aspirated 3.5-liter, V-6 engine and attached to a nine-speed automatic transmission. Up to 280 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque will be sent to the wheels.
The 2019 Passport features two rows of seats with space for up to five passengers. When properly configured, the new Honda crossover SUV can make up to 100 cubic-feet of cargo volume available. Additionally, there is a secure storage bin located under the load floor.
On the other end of the spectrum sits the latest version of the Honda Civic Hatchback. The 2019 Civic Hatchback picks up some new features for the model year as well as a new competitor. Despite the rival's best efforts, the 2019 Honda Civic Hatchback is able to offer as much as 180 horsepower, compared to just 168 from its chief competitor. Finally, the 2019 Civic Hatchback and its five trims (LX, Sport, EX, EX-L Navi and Sport Touring) have more available cargo space than the newest hatchback to be added to the segment.
