2022 Honda Ridgeline Review
Carving its own path among pickup trucks, the new Honda Ridgeline is truly a different way to handle big loads, daily commutes, and long distance travel. For challenging hauls, it offers real capability. For daily commutes and long distance travel, it has good fuel economy, extra storage space, and a very comfortable, SUV-like cabin. Active noise cancellation and extensive soundproofing keep the ride quiet. In this 2022 Honda Ridgeline review, you’ll learn how the truck’s performance, style, and amenities can benefit you. We’ve included the specifications and other numbers that may help you if you are shopping for a midsize truck. Try it out with a test drive.
Performance
To help the truck get every bit of power out of the engine, Honda mates it to a 9-speed automatic transmission. Paddle shifters add a bit of fun for those who love a manual. The engine cranks out 280 horsepower, providing ample energy whether you are on a long straight away through the desert or visiting the Rocky Mountains to enjoy the snow. To ensure that you always have the power you need, Honda includes a high-capacity radiator and heavy-duty transmission cooler. All-wheel drive is standard across the lineup. This nets you Honda’s intelligent traction system with the ability to handle sand, snow and mud. If you are concerned about the Honda Ridgeline mpg, you should know that the truck has variable cylinder management for highway cruises, idle-stop for redlights, and an EcoAssist system for guidance. It only needs regular unleaded gas, keeping costs down. Helping ensure a long road life, the active engine mount system reduces stress on the engine when the road is rough.
Capability
The Honda Ridgeline towing capacity is 5,000 pounds across all trim levels. An integrated class III trailer hitch with a 7-pin connector is standard. Ground clearance is 7.64 inches. The Ridgeline bed has a 7.3-cu.ft. in-bed trunk that you can lock. This doubles as a cooler that you can easily drain. The dual-action tailgate and in-bed lights are standards, too. There are eight heavy duty-tie down cleats with a 350-pound rating. The truck bed is 64 inches long and stretches to 83 inches with the tailgate down. It measures 50 inches wide at the wheel wells and 60 inches wide at its widest point. Payload capacity tops out at 1,583 pounds. The interior has a special rear lift-up seat with 2.9-cu.ft. of storage space. A power-sliding rear window is standard on RTL and higher editions. Honda adds a truck-bed power outlet to the RTL-E edition. Find out how much you can borrow when you get pre-approved for a loan.
Interior Trim Levels
The Ridgeline cabin is one of the more spacious in the category. Passenger volume is 108.9 cu.ft., and second-row legroom is a reasonable 36.7 inches. If you are interested in a great midsize truck, you’ll really enjoy perusing the trim levels. The Sport is rich with features, even though it is the most affordable. A tri-zone automatic climate system helps Phoenix drivers beat the summer heat. The RTL adds leather upholstery and a moonroof. It also has dual power chairs for the driver and front seat passenger. Honda adds an acoustic windshield to its considerable sound proofing. The RTL-E kicks it up another notch with an exciting audio system and more technology. It has illuminated beverage holders and blue ambient lighting. The Black Edition has red ambient LED lighting and a black leather upholstery. Honda Ridgeline specials may help lower the cost even more.
Technology
This high-tech truck has push button start and an available truck-bed audio system. The standard audio system is a 215-watt unit with 7 speakers. The 8-inch touch screen is customizable, and you can download favorite apps thanks to Apple CarPlay connectivity or Android Auto for Google. RTL-E trim level editions add HD Digital Traffic and Navigation to the touchscreen system. Furthermore, the premium audio system is a 540-watt, 8-speaker feature. In addition, the upper trims come with more USB ports, a wireless phone charger and HD Radio. It’s easy to find out about a Honda Ridgeline lease or loan, just check out our financial services.
Safety
Front and rear parking sensors are added at the RTL-E trim level, but all Ridgeline trucks have Honda’s multiview rear view camera system. This includes guidelines to help with reverse maneuvers. Also standard, a whole suite of Honda Sensing features. This includes a system that will warn the driver and even brake automatically if the traffic ahead is stopping too quickly for the Ridgeline’s speed. The road departure mitigation and lane keeping assist help keep the truck on the road and out of danger. On the RTL, Honda adds a blind spot monitor and a helpful cross traffic monitor for parking. When it comes down to it, the Ridgeline is one of those trucks that is ready to work with you in every way possible to make life better. If you want to take a test drive, you’ve got choices. You can visit our showroom and or use our No Bull Express.
