Used 2025 Honda Ridgeline for Sale nearWilkes Barre, PA

How much does the 2025 Honda Ridgeline cost?

Prices have softened 7.25% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 1,383 listings available, which suggests solid inventory for shoppers comparing trims and prices.

Is the 2025 Honda Ridgeline a good car?

Yes — the 2025 Honda Ridgeline earns a 5/5 user rating and a 7.83/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Form and function at 9/10.

Honda’s approach is different from most midsize pickups: the Ridgeline uses crossover-like unibody construction and clever storage solutions, and that helps make it easier to live with than many rivals. It also comes with standard all-wheel drive, plus a comfortable ride and great handling that support everyday use.

The trade-offs are clear, though. It does not offer the towing capacity or off-road capability of more traditional trucks, and its technology is described as outdated.

For buyers who want a midsize pickup that prioritizes comfort and usability over ruggedness, that balance is the Ridgeline’s main appeal. 31.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals, which gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2025 Honda Ridgeline reliable?

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

The Ridgeline’s reliability story is built around its straightforward mechanical setup and practical design. The V6 and nine-speed automatic are described as an excellent combination, and the truck’s unibody construction helps it feel solid while also reducing road noise and vibration. That kind of refinement usually matters a lot in long-term ownership because it can make the truck feel less worn down over time.

Honda’s standard warranty coverage is in line with what you’d expect in the segment, and the truck’s no-nonsense interior and durable-feeling cabin materials support the idea that it’s built for regular use. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that its limited towing and off-road ability may not match your needs if your plans change.

What should I look for when buying a used 2025 Honda Ridgeline?

Accident-free inventory is excellent at 92.9% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.

You should still run a history report and verify that the truck’s condition matches the listing photos and description. A pre-purchase inspection is especially useful if you’re considering a higher-mileage example or one that has been used for work, towing, or outdoor recreation. Focus on cabin wear, tire condition, and whether the truck’s features and driver aids operate as expected.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Ridgeline’s trims differ in appearance, equipment, and off-road emphasis, with the TrailSport adding all-terrain tires, unique suspension tuning, and a front skid plate. Base-trim shoppers should pay close attention to feature gaps, since the lineup is built around comfort and convenience rather than stripped-down utility.
• Powertrain: Every 2025 Ridgeline uses a 3.5-liter V6 with 280 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque, paired with a nine-speed automatic and standard AWD. The setup is smooth and responsive, but it is not aimed at heavy-duty towing or serious off-road use.
• Safety package: Honda Sensing includes forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keep assist, adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and Road Departure Mitigation. The lack of a 360-degree camera system is worth noting.
• Infotainment: Every model gets a 9-inch touchscreen, Bluetooth, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and wireless phone charging. The system also uses a USB-A data port rather than USB-C, and the interface is described as dated.
• Fuel efficiency: Most models return an EPA-rated 21 mpg combined, 18 mpg city, and 24 mpg highway, while TrailSport models are slightly less efficient.

Which 2025 Honda Ridgeline trim should I buy?

The 2025 Honda Ridgeline is offered in 4 trim levels: Sport, RTL, TrailSport, and Black Edition.

Here's the short version:

• Sport: This is the entry point, and it gives you the Ridgeline’s core strengths: standard AWD, the V6 powertrain, and the practical, easy-to-live-with character that defines the truck. It’s the trim to consider if you want the lowest starting price and don’t need extra luxury or off-road hardware.
• RTL: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it builds on the Ridgeline’s comfort-first formula without pushing into the highest price tier. It suits you if you want a more upscale daily driver feel while staying focused on everyday usability.
• TrailSport: This is the trim to choose if you want the most rugged-looking Ridgeline and the added hardware that comes with it, including all-terrain tires, unique suspension tuning, and a front skid plate. It’s the right fit if you want a little more trail capability without expecting true hardcore off-road performance.
• Black Edition: This is the top trim and the one to buy if you want the most premium presentation and the most fully equipped Ridgeline experience. It makes the most sense if you want the highest-end version of this comfort-focused pickup.

Honda Sensing is standard across the lineup, so you get the core safety suite no matter which trim you choose.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2025 Honda Ridgeline?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully without expecting every listing to be a bargain.

• Deal availability: 31.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,383 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.25% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 92.9% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $36,848, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2025 Honda Ridgeline's resale value?

The current average of $36,982 sits slightly below last year's $39,874.

That decline suggests the market has softened, which can help you as a buyer now but may temper resale expectations later. If you buy at the right price, you may have a better chance of limiting depreciation exposure than someone who paid closer to the prior-year average.

The Ridgeline’s practical strengths and strong owner satisfaction should help support demand over time. 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 2025 Honda Ridgeline safe?

The 2025 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 testing. It also earned a top Good score in the updated IIHS side crash test, along with a Good score in the original moderate front overlap test and an Acceptable score in the small overlap front test.

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

Honda Sensing is the standard driver-assistance suite, and it includes forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keep assist, adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and Road Departure Mitigation. The system is broadly comprehensive, but the lack of a 360-degree camera system is a notable omission.

Headlights received a Marginal IIHS rating, so that’s one area to keep in mind if you do a lot of night driving.

Should I buy a 2025 Honda Ridgeline or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2025 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2025 if:

• 31.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is excellent at 92.9% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.25% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It carries over unchanged after the 2024 updates, so you’re getting the latest version of this setup.

Consider the 2024 if:

• At $34,746, the 2024 costs less than the current year's $36,982 average.
• It adds a TrailSport trim and practical updates that make the truck more appealing.

The bottom line: If you want the newest version of the Ridgeline’s comfort-first formula and are shopping the current market, the 2025 is the cleanest choice. If price matters more than having the latest model year, the 2024 is the smarter value play because it delivers much of the same appeal for less money.
