For a hitch for towing with your 2022 Honda Passport I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76290. This is a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver and a concealed cross tube. It features a black powder coat finish with an e-coat base as well as a limited lifetime warranty. This hitch has a maximum gross trailer weight of 6,000 lbs and tongue weight of 900 lbs. It is also compatible with a weight distribution system.

For wiring, I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package # 118291. I would choose this 7-way wiring harness over the 4-way harness since it will allow you to have more options and tow a trailer with brakes. You can always use a 4-way adapter if needed like the # PK12716. If you just want the 4-way connection to power your trailer's signal lights you can use the # C56291. If you needed a 7-way in the future you would still need to install the # 118291.

In order to complete your setup you will also need a ball mount. Check out the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900. This kit has two ball mounts, one with a 3/4" rise or 2" drop and the other with a 2-3/4" rise or 4" drop. It also comes with a 1-7/8" and 2" ball, as well as a ball mount bag to store everything in.

I have attached some review and installation videos for your reference.
