2026 Honda Passport TrailSport Blackout: Staten Island Buyers Guide
Quick Answer: 2026 Honda Passport TrailSport Blackout
TrailSport Blackout is new for 2026: $49,850 MSRP, $51,345 with destination, exactly $1,200 over standard TrailSport. It's an appearance package layered on top of TrailSport's full equipment list, not a separate capability tier, so the off-road suspension, skid plates, recovery hooks, standard trailer hitch, all-terrain tires and moonroof all carry over unchanged. What changes is the look: 18-inch gloss black alloy wheels replace TrailSport's matte Shark Gray, plus HPD center caps, black Honda badges and blacked-out exterior trim. If you already decided TrailSport's hardware is worth having, Blackout is a styling decision, not a capability one.
What $1,200 actually buys
Nothing under the skin. That's worth saying plainly, because trim names that add words sometimes imply added capability, and Blackout doesn't. It's the same off-road-tuned suspension, the same underbody skid plates protecting the engine and fuel tank, the same front and rear recovery hooks, the same standard Class III hitch with 7-pin connector, the same P275/60R18 all-terrain tires, the same one-touch panoramic moonroof, and the same 18/23/20 mpg rating as regular TrailSport. What $1,200 buys is presentation: gloss black 18-inch wheels instead of matte Shark Gray, HPD center caps, black Honda badges front and rear, and blacked-out exterior trim pieces that would otherwise show body color or chrome.
For a buyer who's already sold on TrailSport's capability and just prefers the darker, more aggressive look, that's a straightforward $1,200 decision with no functional downside. For a buyer indifferent to wheel finish, it's $1,200 that could go toward TrailSport Elite's comfort upgrades instead.
Who lands here
Buyers who've already decided on TrailSport's hardware and want the more aggressive, monochrome look without stepping up to Elite-level comfort features. It's a common pattern in truck and off-road-adjacent SUVs, this generation of Passport is simply the first to offer it as a factory option rather than an aftermarket wheel swap. One recent Passport buyer summed up the buying process at this dealership simply: "Dealership staff were very honest and upfront on all aspects of my purchase." If heated and ventilated seats or the 700-watt Bose system matter more to you than wheel color, the TrailSport Elite guide is $2,800 further up the ladder, with its own Blackout version above that.
Frequently asked questions
What does TrailSport Blackout add over regular TrailSport?
Only appearance: 18-inch gloss black alloy wheels in place of matte Shark Gray, HPD center caps, black Honda badges, and blacked-out exterior trim. Every mechanical, comfort and off-road feature carries over unchanged from TrailSport.
How much is a 2026 Passport TrailSport Blackout?
$49,850 MSRP, $51,345 with the $1,495 destination charge, before tax and options, exactly $1,200 more than standard TrailSport. Current offers are posted on the specials page.
Is TrailSport Blackout worth the extra $1,200?
That's purely a style question. If you prefer the darker wheels and blacked-out trim and were buying TrailSport anyway, it's a clean upgrade with zero capability tradeoff. If wheel color doesn't move you, the money is arguably better spent moving up to TrailSport Elite instead.
Does Blackout change the Passport's towing or off-road capability?
No. Towing stays at 5,000 pounds and every off-road spec, ground clearance, skid plates, suspension tuning, matches regular TrailSport exactly. This is an appearance package, not an equipment tier.

The bottom line
TrailSport Blackout is exactly what it says on the label: TrailSport, in black. The off-road hardware that makes the trim worth considering in the first place is untouched, so the only real question is whether the gloss black wheels and blacked-out badging are worth $1,200 to you.
