Honda will introduce a fourth SUV to its 2019 lineup called the Passport that will slot between the CR-V and Pilot ahead of the Los Angeles Auto Show on Nov. 27.
Honda will reveal the vehicle during a livestream event on its YouTube channel at 3:30 p.m. West Coast time.
The Passport name has been resurrected from Honda's past. Honda ceased production of the earlier model in 2002, after selling an essentially rebadged Isuzu.
The 2019 Passport will be built by Honda in the U.S. at its Lincoln, Ala. plant. A teaser video shows the vehicle driving off road.
