An Overview of the 2023 Honda Ridgeline

The Engine

The Ridgeline comes with a 3.5-liter V6 engine. It delivers an impressive 280 horsepower and 262 lb.-ft of torque. This engine has a maximum towing capacity of 5,000 pounds.


All-Wheel Drive System

The Ridgeline has an impressive i-VTM4 all-wheel drive system. This design is top-of-the-line and makes the Ridgeline a lot more fun to drive in any condition. Drivers will experience a lot more confidence in their vehicle’s ability to handle slick roads when they have this system under their command.


Truck Bed

The lay-flat truck bed in the Ridgeline comes with eight heavy-duty tie-down cleats with a capacity of 350 pounds. The truck bed has a length of 64 inches with the tailgate up and 83 inches when it’s down. The Ridgeline’s entry-level model has a payload capacity of 1,583 pounds.

Honda really went all in with making sure that the truck bed is a very functional space in the Ridgeline. They added features like their in-bed trunk, providing 7.3 cubic feet of space. It can easily fit an 82-quart ice chest and comes with a drain plug for easy cleaning. The trunk space also includes grocery bag hooks and a lock, so you can keep your items safely stored.


Dual Action Tailgate

The tailgate has a unique design that’s worth talking about. This standard feature utilizes a new hinge system design that allows the tailgate to open to the side or down. When it’s down, the tailgate has the capacity to hold up to 300 pounds.


Driver Assistive Features

Honda loaded the entry-level Ridgeline with an impressive list of advanced driver-assist features. These include auto high beam headlights, lane keeping assist, a lane departure warning, and a road departure mitigation system. There is also a collision mitigation braking system and forward collision warning.

The Ridgeline also comes standard with adaptive cruise control. This is a nice bonus as few manufacturers are including this desirable feature as standard. When enabled, adaptive cruise control will automatically adjust your speed to that of the vehicle in front of you. This makes long road trips a much more enjoyable experience.


Infotainment

Honda included an 8-inch touchscreen as standard on the Ridgeline. The front and center console also comes with USB ports for easy charging. Connectivity features include Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Bluetooth. ​
