The light pickup-truck from Honda received a new generation in 2016, after two years of absence on the market. It returned with the same idea of offering a leisure truck instead of a workhorse.
The Ridgeline was the first one-ton pickup-truck built by Honda and it was built using a combination of unibody bodywork. Its concept was good to decrease the vehicle's mass, but with the cost of utility capabilities. But for Honda, that wasn't considered a problem since it didn't build the Ridgeline to be driven daily on a farm or construction site.
The design was in the line of the Pilot SUV model. Its look was complemented by a very versatile loading. The bed could have been open by lowering or opening on one side of the tailgate. Under the rear part of the floor, there was a big trunk. It also featured a Truck Bed Audio System, connected to the infotainment unit.
Inside, the dashboard was nearly identical to the one in the Honda Pilot, with a standard 4.2” infotainment unit that could have been upgraded to an 8” unit. Due to the "Magic Seats" system, under the rear bench, there was a storage space where additional luggage could have been stored.
The Ridgeline was offered with front-wheel-drive as standard and an option for all-wheel-drive. Due to its light construction, it was able to carry 718.5 kg (1584 lbs) and tow up to 2268 kg (5000 lbs). The 3.5-liter engine was mated as standard to the 6-speed automatic transmission.
