About the 2026 Honda Ridgeline
Hey, if you're looking for a truck that drives more like your daily SUV, the 2026 Honda Ridgeline is a great look. It's a crossover foundation, which makes parking around town way easier than with a traditional body-on-frame truck. You get 280 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque from the standard V6 engine, paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission for smooth shifting. It’s AWD standard, so light trails or slippery driveways are no sweat. For hauling gear, the 7.3 cubic feet of cargo space handles weekend supplies, and with a combined 21 MPG, it keeps things reasonable for the commute. It’s built for practicality right down to its compact 210.2-inch length.
Key Highlights
Efficient AWD Power
The standard V6 delivers 280 hp and 262 lb-ft, but manages a respectable 21 MPG combined, making it a capable daily driver.
Maneuverable Size
At 210.2 inches long, the 2026 Honda Ridgeline is noticeably more compact than most full-size trucks, easing city navigation and garage parking.
Smooth Shifting
The pairing of the gas engine with a 9-speed shiftable automatic transmission ensures the ride remains composed, avoiding the clunky feeling sometimes associated with pickups.
Spacious Front Seating
Front occupants will enjoy plenty of room, thanks to 40.9 inches of legroom up front, which is excellent for long road trips.
