Developments: 2. Honda Racing Corporation US (HRC US), in collaboration with Mason Motorsports, has unveiled the Honda Passport Baja Spec. This high-performance trophy truck is designed for the SCORE World Desert Championship and is intended to be the first hybrid to compete in the premier Trophy Truck class. The vehicle utilizes a 2.4-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine, derived from the Acura ARX-06 GTP endurance racer, paired with an 800V high-voltage hybrid system. This powertrain produces over 1,300 horsepower, surpassing the output of the large-displacement V8 engines common in the category. The hybrid system employs lightweight pouch-style battery cells, similar to Formula 1 technology, housed in carbon fiber casings manufactured in California. Technical features include a Mason Motorsports Gen 2 chassis, a specialized five-speed transmission, and advanced electronic systems such as AI-assisted power deployment, adaptive traction control, and dual-axle brake-by-wire. The truck is scheduled to debut at the Baja 500 in June 2027, with Bryce Menzies set to pilot the vehicle. ## Timeline ### 2026-11-02: Honda unveils 1,300 hp hybrid Trophy Truck Honda Racing Corporation USA has unveiled the Honda Passport Baja Spec, a hybrid Trophy Truck producing over 1,300 hp via a 2.4L twin-turbo V6 and an 800V system. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/honda-unveils-1300-hp-hybrid-trophy-truck ### 2026-10-30: Honda unveils 1,300-HP hybrid Passport Baja Spec trophy truck Honda Racing has revealed the Passport Baja Spec, a 1,300-HP hybrid trophy truck aiming for victory in the Baja 1000 desert races. 14 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/honda-unveils-1300-hp-hybrid-passport-baja-spec-trophy-truck --- Cite as: Honda hybrid trophy truck development.
