2026 Honda Ridgeline

The 2026 Honda Ridgeline is the midsize truck that refuses to play by the old, uncomfortable rules of the pickup world. As your Honda headquarters at Jeffrey Honda—located on Gratiot Avenue in Roseville, just North of Detroit—we know that Michigan drivers need a machine that can handle a weekend at Lake St. Clair and a snowy commute down I-94 with equal poise. The 2026 Ridgeline delivers with a standard 280-horsepower V6 and the legendary i-VTM4® All-Wheel-Drive system, providing the grit of a truck with the refined handling of a premium SUV. This isn't just a pickup; it’s a wide-track, high-torque warrior designed to rule the Metro Detroit landscape.

Interior

Inside the 2026 Ridgeline, you’ll find a command center that prioritizes real-world utility without sacrificing first-class comfort. The cabin is anchored by a standard 9-inch color touchscreen featuring wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, while a 7-inch digital meter display keeps your vitals in clear view. Because we know Michigan winters are relentless, the RTL and above trims come standard with leather-trimmed, heated front seats and a power moonroof to let in the light on those crisp Detroit mornings. With a massive center console large enough to store a 10-inch tablet and a versatile 60/40 split lift-up rear seat with under-seat storage, this sanctuary is built to haul your crew and your gear in absolute silence, thanks to standard Active Noise Cancellation™.

Exterior

The 2026 Ridgeline commands the road with a muscular, athletic silhouette and a predatory front fascia that projects raw authority. For 2026, the lineup levels up its style with the Black Edition Two-Tone, featuring an exclusive contrasting black roof that adds a sharp, custom-shop look. The adventure-ready TrailSport trim adds a rugged edge with an oil-pan skid plate and exclusive Ash Green Metallic paint. But the real genius is in the bed: the world-famous Dual-Action Tailgate swings out or folds down, providing easy access to the lockable In-Bed Trunk®—a 7.3 cubic foot secure bunker that doubles as a cooler thanks to its integrated drain plug. Whether it's parked in Roseville or cruising through Grosse Pointe, this truck projects an image of sophisticated strength.

Performance

Under the hood, the 2026 Ridgeline is powered by a formidable 3.5-liter i-VTEC® V6 engine, unleashing 280 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. This muscle is funneled through a smooth 9-speed automatic transmission and the i-VTM4® AWD system, which can send up to 70% of torque to the rear wheels and distribute 100% of that to either the left or right side for surgical traction. When properly equipped, this beast boasts a 5,000-lb towing capacity and a 1,583-lb payload, giving you the grit to pull the boat or haul a bed full of payload with total confidence. With Intelligent Traction Management featuring Normal, Snow, Sand, and Mud modes, the Ridgeline ensures you have total authority over any Michigan terrain.

Safety Features

A true warrior always watches its six. Every 2026 Ridgeline comes standard with Honda Sensing®, a digital fortress of protection built for the unpredictable nature of the road. This next-gen suite includes a Collision Mitigation Braking System™, Road Departure Mitigation, and Adaptive Cruise Control to take the stress out of heavy Detroit traffic. New for 2026, enhanced camera resolution and radar coverage provide more precise object detection, while the Blind Spot Information System keeps an eye on your flanks during lane changes on the Lodge Freeway. It’s high-tech armor for your daily drive, providing the security you need to push the limits safely.
