Power and Performance of the 2026 Honda Ridgeline
You can use the Ridgeline as a workhorse on weekends or a daily driver during the week. This pickup drives like an SUV, and it's not rough or bouncy. Under the hood, the 2026 Ridgeline is equipped with a powertrain setup consisting of a nine-speed automatic transmission and a 3.5-liter engine. It develops 262 lb-ft of torque and 280 horsepower, which the transmission sends to all four wheels.
The Ridgeline's powerful i-VTEC® V6 engine, Intelligent Traction Management, and nimble suspension make it a fun vehicle to drive. With torque vectoring and variable torque management, the truck can handle a wide variety of road conditions with ease.
