Editor's notes
The Ridgeline mostly carries over for the 2026 model year, filling a gap for shoppers who want the flexibility of a pickup truck bed without sacrificing the ride comfort of an SUV. A dual-function tailgate and flip-up rear seats, as well as a sliding rear window, optimize the pickup truck vibe, but Honda’s workhorse V6 and standard all-wheel drive (AWD) cap towing capacity at 5,000 pounds, which comes up short of midsize truck rivals such as the Toyota Tacoma, Chevy Colorado, Ford Ranger, and Nissan Frontier.
It’s priced right, starting at $42,090 with destination fee, and comes with the modern convenience and safety features expected in a new car, plus standard extras such as wireless smartphone compatibility and a wireless device charger. A TrailSport model inspires overlanding fantasies with its softer suspension and all-terrain tires, but it’s no TRD Pro or Raptor. For weekend house projects, small business subcontracting, or hauling stinky kids’ sports gear, the Ridgeline is a recommended buy for its dual nature.
We’ve logged hundreds of hours driving and evaluating this generation of midsize trucks, including the Honda Ridgeline.
Pros
- Comfy ride unlike most trucks
- Versatile bed and tailgate
- Roomy interior with flip-up rear seats
Cons
- May not be hearty enough for some
- Truck folk may sneer at the Ridgeline
- Tow capacity capped at 5,000 pounds
