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

Older model years carry meaningfully higher accident rates, so always verify the vehicle history report on pre-2021 models.

Key things to evaluate:

• Safety package: Honda Sensing, including 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.
• Infotainment: a 9-inch touchscreen with Bluetooth, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, and wireless phone charging.
• Fuel efficiency: Most Ridgeline models return an EPA-rated 21 mpg combined (18 mpg city, 24 mpg highway), although TrailSport models are slightly less efficient.

Which Honda Ridgeline trim should I buy?

The 2025 Honda Ridgeline offers these trims:

• Sport: The entry trim starts the lineup with standard AWD, a V6 engine, a 9-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, wireless phone charging, and Honda Sensing safety tech. It is the best-value starting point if you want the Ridgeline’s core strengths at the lowest price.
• RTL: This trim adds a step up in comfort and equipment over Sport, while keeping the Ridgeline’s standard AWD and V6 setup.
• TrailSport: This off-road-focused trim adds all-terrain tires, unique suspension tuning, and a front skid plate, and it suits you if you want the most rugged-looking Ridgeline setup.
• Black Edition: The range-topping trim adds an eight-speaker audio system and rear USB-C ports, along with the most upscale presentation in the lineup.

What Honda Ridgeline do most buyers choose?

The Honda Ridgeline years with the most listings are 2024, 2023, and 2022.

These higher-volume years tend to draw the most shoppers because they offer a broad mix of availability, newer features, and pricing that still sits below the newest model years. More listings also give you more room to compare condition, mileage, and deal quality.

What is the Honda Ridgeline's resale value?

Most model years in the table are moving lower year over year, which is good news if you are shopping used and want prices to be more approachable. The biggest drops are concentrated in the newer and mid-cycle years, while the older examples are changing more slowly. That pattern suggests you can often find stronger value in the used market without giving up the Ridgeline’s core appeal.

The 2014, 2017, and 2020 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
