How much does the 2024 Honda Ridgeline cost?

Prices have softened 5.28% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 2,531 listings available, which gives you a meaningful amount of inventory to compare.

If you find a listing below $34,271.19, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

Is the 2024 Honda Ridgeline a good car?

Yes — owners rate it 5/5, and the expert rating is 7.33/10. The standout strength is Form and function at 10/10.

Owners consistently praise its comfort, spaciousness, and user-friendly features, and they also like its attractive pricing compared with other trucks. The Ridgeline’s easy-to-use nature and practical layout come through clearly in the feedback.

The trade-offs are the climate control system and the CarPlay feature, which some drivers found disappointing. In context, this is a midsize pickup aimed at buyers who want everyday livability more than traditional truck toughness.

With 35.3% of listings marked as good or great deals, the market still offers some room for selective shoppers.

Is the 2024 Honda Ridgeline reliable?

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

The owner feedback points to a truck that feels comfortable, spacious, and easy to live with over time, which is the kind of day-to-day dependability used buyers want. The expert evaluation also describes it as easy to drive and live with, with a robust V6 that helps it feel well suited to regular ownership.

Honda also includes complimentary scheduled maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles, which helps reduce early ownership costs. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that age-related wear may matter more than mileage alone, especially if the truck has seen hard use or skipped maintenance.

What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Honda Ridgeline?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 89.8% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still check the report carefully, because accident-free status does not replace a proper inspection. Focus on how the truck has been used, whether the tires and brakes show normal wear, and whether the cabin electronics and driver-assistance features work as expected. If possible, prioritize a test drive that includes parking, low-speed maneuvering, and highway driving.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Sport, RTL, TrailSport, and Black Edition each bring different equipment, and the base trim now includes more standard tech and safety gear than before.
• Powertrain: Every version uses a 280-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 with a nine-speed automatic and AWD, and the truck’s 5,000-pound towing limit is its biggest drawback.
• Safety package: Honda Sensing includes forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist with road departure mitigation, lane-centering assist, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high-beam headlights; blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert are now standard on the Sport.
• Infotainment: Every Ridgeline gets a 9-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless Android Auto, wireless smartphone charging, and HondaLink connected services; the Black Edition adds HD Radio, extra USB ports, and an eight-speaker premium sound system.
• Fuel efficiency: In testing, the TrailSport returned 19.4 mpg, just below its official 20 mpg combined rating, and Honda says the V6 can outperform turbocharged four-cylinder rivals in real-world efficiency.

Which 2024 Honda Ridgeline trim should I buy?

The 2024 Honda Ridgeline is offered in 4 trim levels: Sport, RTL, TrailSport, and Black Edition.

Here's the short version:

• Base trim: The Sport is the value play, but it still leaves you without some of the nicer appearance and convenience upgrades found higher up the range.
• Sweet-spot trim: The RTL is the best balance if you want a more upscale feel without jumping to the top end.
• Premium/top trim: The Black Edition adds the most upscale tech and audio upgrades, including HD Radio, extra USB ports, and an eight-speaker premium sound system.
• Off-road trim: The TrailSport adds an off-road suspension, all-terrain tires, and underbody protection, but its off-road focus does not erase the Ridgeline’s limited trail ability for everyday buyers.

The Sport now gets the standard blind-spot monitoring system with rear cross-traffic alert, which used to require an upgrade.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Honda Ridgeline?

This is a moderate market, so you can shop selectively without expecting a deep bargain on every listing.

• Deal availability: 35.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 2,531 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 5.28% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $34,271.19, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2024 Honda Ridgeline's resale value?

The current average of $35,196 sits slightly below last year's $37,157.

That price movement suggests the market has cooled a bit, which can help you buy more confidently now. For a future seller, it also means you should expect resale value to depend heavily on condition, mileage, and equipment rather than assuming the truck will hold its price automatically.

The Ridgeline’s practical reputation and broad owner satisfaction should help support demand over time. Even so, the current trend shows that buyers are being more selective, so a clean history and strong condition will matter a lot when you eventually sell.

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

Is the 2024 Honda Ridgeline safe?

The truck earns an Acceptable score in the IIHS small overlap frontal-impact test, and the IIHS rates its headlights as Marginal. It also earns five-star ratings across the board except for rollover resistance, where it scores a four-star rating from NHTSA.

It earns a 7/10 safety score from our experts.

Honda Sensing is standard and includes forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist with road departure mitigation, lane-centering assist, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high-beam headlights. Blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert is now standard on the Sport, which helps broaden the safety package at the entry level.

The main caveat is that the ADAS can feel a bit intrusive at times, especially with lane-centering and adaptive cruise control in heavier traffic. The IIHS headlight result is another area to keep in mind if you drive often at night.

Should I buy a 2024 Honda Ridgeline or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2024 if:

• 35.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 89.8% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 5.28% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2024 adds a TrailSport trim, updated tech, and improved standard safety equipment.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $32,276, the 2023 costs less than the current year's $35,196 average.
• It emphasizes practicality and daily-driver comfort.

Consider the 2025 if:

• At $37,141, the 2025 costs more than the current year's $35,196 average.
• It carries over the 2024 updates unchanged.

The bottom line: If you want the best mix of updates, safety equipment, and market pricing, the 2024 is the strongest default choice. If you’re price-sensitive, the 2023 is the better value path, while the 2025 makes sense only if you find a specific listing that justifies the higher asking price.
