Honda's pickup truck is a compact-class five-passenger 4-dr crew cab with a 5-ft-long cargo bed and standard all-wheel drive. Ridgeline has several design features unusual to pickups, including independent rear suspension and unibody construction. Its cargo box is dent-resistant plastic with a steel-reinforced floor that houses a covered well at the rear. The tailgate drops down or swings out. The sole powertrain is a 255-hp V6 and a 5-speed automatic transmission. Ridgeline lacks low-range gearing, but a dashboard button locks in a 50/50 front/rear power split. ABS and traction/antiskid control are standard. So are front side airbags and curtain side airbags that cover both seating rows and include rollover deployment. All models have front bucket seats and a 60/40 split rear bench with cushions that flip up to increase in-cab storage. The rear window has a power sliding center section. Ridgeline comes in four trim levels. Exclusive to the top-line RTL model are leather upholstery, heated front seats, sunroof, and navigation system.
