Is the 2022 Honda Ridgeline a good car?

Yes — the 2022 Honda Ridgeline earns 4.6/5 from owners and 7.7/10 from our experts. The standout strength is Form and function at 9/10.

Owners consistently praise its comfort, spacious interior, and useful features like the in-bed trunk and dual-function tailgate. The Ridgeline also gets credit for its smooth ride and quiet cabin, which fit its role as a more refined, everyday-friendly pickup.

The trade-offs are its irritating transmission and outdated technology. For you, that means the Ridgeline makes the most sense if you want a pickup that prioritizes comfort and usability over traditional truck toughness.

Is the 2022 Honda Ridgeline reliable?

Owners rate it 4.6/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

Owners describe it as comfortable, solid value, and practical, with a smooth ride and useful features that support everyday ownership. The truck’s refined driving character and familiar Honda layout also reinforce a sense of dependability.

Its naturally aspirated V6 and standard all-wheel drive add to the impression of durable, straightforward hardware. Honda’s three-year, 36,000-mile limited warranty and five-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty are standard for the segment.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that the Ridgeline’s age and tech limitations may matter more over time than its mechanical basics.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Honda Ridgeline?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 83.1% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still check the history report carefully and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the truck has higher mileage or visible wear. Focus on condition details that matter in daily use, including the cabin, infotainment responsiveness, and any signs of hard use in the bed or tailgate.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base Sport trim is the most stripped-down version, while higher trims add more comfort and convenience equipment. The available Honda Performance Development packages add visual flair, but they do not change the Ridgeline’s core truck character.
• Powertrain: The Ridgeline uses a 3.5-liter V6 with a nine-speed automatic transmission and standard all-wheel drive. It delivers 280 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque, but the transmission can feel slow to respond.
• Safety package: Honda Sensing is standard and includes automatic emergency braking, Road Departure Mitigation, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, lane keep assist, and adaptive cruise control. Blind spot monitoring is standard on all but the base Sport trim, and automatic high beams are standard on the RTL-E and Black Edition.
• Infotainment: You get an 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Bluetooth. SiriusXM is available on all but the base Sport trim, and navigation is limited to the RTL-E and Black Edition.
• Fuel efficiency: The Ridgeline is rated at 21 mpg combined, with 18 mpg city and 24 mpg highway.

Which 2022 Honda Ridgeline trim should I buy?

The 2022 Honda Ridgeline is offered in 4 trim levels: Sport, RTL, RTL-E, Black Edition.

Here's the short version:

• Sport: This is the entry point, but it leaves out some convenience features you may want, including SiriusXM and blind spot monitoring. It makes sense if you want the lowest-cost way into the Ridgeline lineup.
• RTL: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it adds a more upscale feel without jumping all the way to the top of the range. It’s the trim to target if you want the Ridgeline’s comfort and practicality without overpaying for extras you may not need.
• RTL-E: This trim adds more premium equipment, including navigation and automatic high beams, and it suits you if you want a better-equipped daily driver.
• Black Edition: This is the most distinctive and fully equipped version, with the most premium presentation. It makes sense if you want the most upscale Ridgeline experience.

Blind spot monitoring is standard on all but the base Sport trim level, and automatic high beams are standard on the RTL-E and Black Edition trim levels.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Honda Ridgeline?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can find value if you shop carefully.

• Deal availability: 34.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,876 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.71% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 83.1% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $28,839, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Honda Ridgeline's resale value?

The current average of $28,839 sits slightly below last year's $31,247.

That decline suggests the Ridgeline has softened in the used market, which can work against a future seller if you buy at today’s average and try to resell soon. On the other hand, the current pricing may help you enter at a more favorable point than buyers did a year ago.

Because the model has strong owner satisfaction and a clear identity, it should still appeal to shoppers who want comfort and practicality in a pickup. That kind of niche demand can help support resale value over time, especially if the truck is well maintained.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.6/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Honda Ridgeline safe?

The 2022 Honda Ridgeline earns a five-star overall rating from NHTSA, with five-star ratings in frontal and side crash tests and four-star ratings in rollover crash testing. It also received top “Good” scores in most IIHS crash tests, though it posted a lower “Average” result in the passenger-side small overlap frontal test.

It earns an 8/10 safety score from our experts.

Honda Sensing is standard and includes automatic emergency braking, Road Departure Mitigation, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, lane keep assist, and adaptive cruise control. Blind spot monitoring is standard on all but the base Sport trim, and automatic high beams are standard on the RTL-E and Black Edition.

The main caveat is the IIHS passenger-side small overlap frontal result, along with the lack of a 360-degree camera system.

Should I buy a 2022 Honda Ridgeline or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 34.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 83.1% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.71% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.6/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It keeps the 2021 refresh and adds no major changes.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $26,728, the 2021 costs less than the current year's $28,839 average.
• It brought a more traditional truck look and stronger appeal to conventional buyers.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $30,735, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $28,839 average.
• It emphasizes everyday practicality and broad appeal for modest truck tasks.

The bottom line: The 2022 is the right pick if you want the Ridgeline’s comfort, practicality, and strong owner satisfaction without paying more for a newer model year. If price matters most, the 2021 is the better value play; if you want a newer-year alternative, the 2023 is the next step up.
