Honda Ridgeline
The new vintage of the Ridgeline dons a redesigned front grille, which matches the one on the Honda Pilot. These vehicles also share the same engine, a 3.5L V6 that produces 250 hp. In fact, this engine equips all four trims, including the DX, Touring, VP and Sport. This AWD pickup features 4WD and a 5-speed automatic transmission. Its versatility is unique. It’s as practical as a truck, but is as comfortable as a car.
