CAPABILITY
There's no task too large for the Honda Ridgeline. Equipped with powerful capabilities and built-in tools, the Ridgeline helps you check items off your to-do list, one by one.
Power You Can Count On
Underneath the hood, the Honda Ridgeline has plenty of strength to take on whatever lies ahead. It’s powered by a 3.5L V6 engine that’s capable of producing up to 280 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. Beyond its impressive capabilities, the Ridgeline makes the engine standard across every trim level, meaning you don’t need to upgrade your configuration to gain this power.
The 9-speed automatic transmission helps boost the driving experience. Encounter smooth gear changes and near-instant response times across every mile. Thanks to quicker accelerations, merging in traffic is a breeze. Once you reach your travel speed, the overall ride will feel smooth and stable.
On the days you want to take more control over your ride, use the steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters to command every gear change.
Stay Ready for Anything
The Honda Ridgeline was engineered with the unexpected in mind. From bumpy worksite conditions to forging your own path, the Ridgeline has the all-terrain features and capabilities needed to help you accomplish more. Some of the noteworthy all-terrain features include:
- 5,000-pound maximum towing capacity: Makes it easy to bring recreational toys along for the adventure.
- Intelligent Traction Management system: Lets you toggle among four modes, including three specific all-terrain modes, to increase traction on low-friction surfaces.
- Independent suspension system: Works to make even the bumpiest roads feel like freshly paved asphalt.
To ensure its capabilities, the Honda Ridgeline underwent numerous tests that exposed it to the most severe conditions. Whether you want to test your limits with nomadic winter camping or along rocky roads, the Ridgeline is built tough enough to accomplish it all.
USABILITY
While adventure plays a significant role in your life, you need a truck that’s capable of conquering everyday moments. The Honda Ridgeline streamlines everything from errands to t-ball practice, thanks to its mindful features.
The Everyday Made Easy
What’s on the agenda today? No matter what you have planned, the Honda Ridgeline has the features needed to make any outing feel effortless. It all starts with the Dual-Action Tailgate, an innovative feature that simplifies the cargo experience. This advanced feature can swing open the tailgate, allowing you to get closer to the bed for easy access to larger or heavier items.
Additional cargo-convenient features include:
- Expansive lay-flat cargo area: The 33.9 cubic-foot cargo area is large enough to hold sheets of plywood or even a motocross bike.
- Lockable In-Bed Trunk® system: Adds 7.3 extra cubic feet of cargo space in a hidden compartment for safekeeping.
- Composite bed material: Enhances long-term confidence, thanks to the scratch- and UV-resistant material.
When optionally equipped, the Ridgeline’s bed is outfitted with a power outlet. This outlet can be used to power up a portable grille or TV when tailgating. When camping, this handy feature can easily inflate an air mattress.
Ready for All Lifestyles
The Honda Ridgeline was designed with many lifestyles in mind. The cabin can accommodate up to five passengers, providing ample space for everyone on a family outing. When transporting storage containers full of materials or grocery bags, the 60/40 split lift-up seats turn the cabin into a secondary cargo area.
Regardless of how you plan to use the cabin, the Ridgeline offers the space and versatility you need.

ENHANCEMENTS
The Honda Ridgeline never settles for basic. In addition to its performance and flexible features, this truck offers the premium amenities necessary to make every commute a relaxing and enjoyable experience.
Your Personal Retreat
Life can feel chaotic at times. The Honda Ridgeline is designed to help you feel more at ease and alleviate tension. Available heated front seats can soothe lingering tension with a simple button press, ensuring you're always ready for whatever comes next.

Additional Ridgeline optional features that enhance everyday moments include:

While these features add a premium touch to the cabin, the available 10-way power-adjustable driver’s seat makes it easy to find the seat position that supports your body.
Even More to Love About the Ridgeline
A comfortable cabin is only half of what you can expect from the Honda Ridgeline. This truck features cutting-edge technologies that help keep you connected and entertained, regardless of the distance you travel.

When conditions are met, these features may assist with braking or steering to avoid a collision.
While features like Forward Collision Warning and a Blind Spot Information System help you reach your destination, six available parking sensors help you maneuver your truck into even the most complex parking spots with ease, ensuring total confidence from Point A to Point B.
Honda Ridgeline vs. The Competition
