The 2026 Honda Ridgeline is built to work as hard as it plays, and Wilde East Towne Honda is here to show you exactly what it's capable of. Whether you're hauling a boat, a camper, or a work trailer, this truck brings the power and the features to get the job done.
Powertrain and Tow Rating
The Honda Ridgeline is powered by a 3.5-liter V6 engine producing 280 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque through a nine-speed automatic transmission. Honda's Intelligent Variable Torque Management™ (i-VTM4®) all-wheel-drive system continuously distributes torque across all four wheels, keeping the truck stable and planted when pulling a heavy load. Together, those systems deliver a maximum towing capacity of 5,000 lbs.
Every 2026 Honda Ridgeline comes equipped with an integrated Class III trailer hitch and a seven-pin connector as standard equipment, so there's no need for aftermarket hardware before you can tow. A Gross Combined Weight Rating of 9,986 lbs and a payload capacity of up to 1,544 lbs mean the Honda Ridgeline handles serious loads on both ends of the equation.
Safety Tech That Works While You Tow
Towing adds complexity to every drive, and the standard Honda Sensing® suite in the 2026 Honda Ridgeline is designed to keep drivers aware of what's happening around them. Blind Spot Information System and Cross Traffic Monitor help account for the wider footprint a trailer creates, while Adaptive Cruise Control takes the edge off long highway hauls with a trailer in tow. The Multi View Rearview Camera with Dynamic Guidelines makes hitching up and backing into tight spots a cinch.
