As was the case with the first model, it's tempting to measure and rate the new Honda Ridgeline in the context of its competition. But that's wrong for several reasons -- first and foremost being that it doesn't have any competitors. There are alternatives, to be sure, but the 2017 Ridgeline isn't a truck in the traditional sense of the word, and although it'll do a lot of trucklike things (and do them very well), the Ridgeline isn't a truck. It's the un-truck.
Because of its four-wheel independent suspension, carlike interior, soft yet supportive seats, and torque-vectoring rear wheels on all-wheel-drive models, the Ridgeline drives more like a well-balanced, comfort-minded sedan. On the highway, its quietness, comfort, and visibility make it a great road-trip or long commute vehicle. |
