(November 7, 2023) TORRANCE, Calif. — Honda says the 2024 Honda Ridgeline is ready to work hard and play even harder with improved off-road performance, updated styling and a more high-tech cabin. The first-ever Ridgeline TrailSport is more off-road capable, engineered to get weekend adventurers even further off the beaten path with new features, including an off-road-tuned suspension, all-terrain tires and steel underbody protection. All 2024 Ridgeline models will begin arriving in dealers this winter.


"With every new TrailSport model we bring to market, Honda light trucks get more rugged than ever and the increase in Ridgeline's off-road performance continues that trend," said Lance Woelfer, assistant vice president of Honda Auto Sales, American Honda Motor Co., Inc. "Our more rugged Ridgeline will continue its strong momentum with sales up over 20 percent this year."

Taking Ridgeline's rugged styling even further, "RIDGELINE" is stamped across the tailgate while the grille gets a sporty new mesh design.

Inside, more advanced tech has been smartly integrated to enhance Ridgeline's cabin experience. A new 7-inch digital instrument panel is now standard, featuring an all-digital tachometer on the left and a physical speedometer on the right. The display also includes user-selectable functions, such as Honda Sensing settings, vehicle information and more.

All Ridgeline trims get a new larger 9-inch color touchscreen with a faster processor for lag-free performance. Additionally, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility is now standard, and Ridgeline's integrated navigation system has been simplified with new graphics and fewer menus. The Ridgeline Black Edition adds upgraded speaker performance to further enhance the listening experience of its premium audio system.

For increased comfort and functionality, all 2024 Ridgelines benefit from a new center console featuring a large integrated armrest and expanded storage. The new center-console storage bin can swallow a full-size tablet, while a larger storage tray ahead of the shifter can accommodate two large smartphones side by side and incorporates a Qi-compatible wireless charging pad.

The 2024 Honda Ridgeline will be available in four all-wheel drive trim levels; Sport, RTL, the new TrailSport with special off-road hardware, and the top-of-the-range Black Edition.

Ridgeline can also be uniquely customized with several post-production option packages, including the popular HPD Package. Designed to evoke Honda's racing DNA, the popular HPD Package adds to Ridgeline's rugged appearance with a unique grille treatment, black fender flares, aggressive wheels and special graphics.
