Performance & Capability

Under the hood, this 2017 Honda Ridgeline Black Edition is powered by a smooth 3.5L V-6 engine featuring direct injection, i-VTEC VCM variable valve control, and cylinder deactivation, generating a capable 280HP. Paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission, it strikes an ideal balance between everyday efficiency—delivering up to 25 highway MPG—and working power. The advanced VTM-4 automatic full-time AWD system works in tandem with an electro-mechanical limited-slip differential to maintain traction across slick pavement, mud, and gravel. Standard independent front strut and multi-link rear suspensions ensure a supple, controlled ride that traditional leaf-spring trucks simply cannot match. For work or recreational trailering, this pickup comes equipped with a heavy-duty radiator, transmission oil cooler, Class III tow rating, and integrated trailer hitch with trailer sway control to keep your cargo steady on every haul.

Technology & Connectivity

Inside the cabin, the Ridgeline Black Edition blends high-tech convenience with premium audio entertainment. Centered around an 8-inch primary display touchscreen, the integrated navigation system features voice activation and real-time digital traffic to help you route around congestion effortlessly. Seamless smart device integration via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto puts your favorite mobile apps, messaging, and media directly on the screen. Audiophiles will appreciate the powerful 540W amplifier feeding an 8-speaker interior sound system, alongside a unique set of 4 exterior in-bed speakers that turn the pickup box into an audio hub during outdoor gatherings. HandsFreeLink Bluetooth® wireless connectivity, steering wheel-mounted audio controls, 4 USB ports, and a digital/analog instrumentation display ensure you remain connected and informed without taking your focus off the road.
