How Much Is the 2026 Honda Ridgeline?

The 2026 Honda Ridgeline celebrates its 20th anniversary as one of the most road-friendly mid-size pickup trucks. Sharing a platform with the Pilot SUV, the Ridgeline and its roomy crew cab use a versatile pickup bed that has a dual-opening tailgate and a hidden trunk in the cargo bed. Made in America, the Ridgeline rides as comfy as an SUV and comes well equipped with standard safety and convenience features.
Not much changes for the Ridgeline’s 20th anniversary except for a couple of color changes and modest price increases that range from $415 to $445. The 2026 Honda Ridgeline starts at $42,090 (all prices include a $1,495 destination fee).

Pricing and Release Date
The 2026 Honda Ridgeline is on sale now. Pricing is below, with model-year 2025 prices in parentheses:
- Sport: $42,090 ($41,645)
- RTL: $44,890 ($44,475)

What’s New?
For 2026, Honda spritzes up the Ridgeline with a new Ash Green Metallic color that’s exclusive to the off-road-leaning TrailSport trim and a contrasting black roof option for the Black Edition.
The available black roof contrasts the white body on the range-topping Black Edition, or it can be had with a body-color roof. The new color on the TrailSport trim is shared with other TrailSports in Honda’s family, including the model-year 2026 Passport and CR-V hybrid.
Otherwise, the 2026 Ridgeline largely carries over. Launched for the 2006 model year, the Ridgeline goes long in the second generation of its product cycle after a mild refresh for 2024.
Powertrain Specs
A 280-horsepower, 3.5-liter V-6 coupled to a nine-speed automatic and all-wheel drive is standard on all four trims of the 2026 Ridgeline. That helps it carry almost 1,600 pounds of occupants and cargo, which is in line with rivals that include the Chevrolet Colorado, Ford Ranger and Toyota Tacoma, and its towing capacity remains at 5,000 pounds. Though official EPA estimates aren’t yet available for the 2026 model, Honda expects fuel economy to remain the same as 2025, with estimated ratings of 18/24/21 mpg city/highway/combined for all trims except the TrailSport and its 18/23/20 mpg figure.
