2008 Honda Ridgeline Road Test Ratings
Fuel Economy
17 mpg
EDITORS' RATINGS OVERALL SCORE:
Overall
A versatile vehicle that spans the gap between car and truck. It's not perfect at either extreme, but is a good compromise in the middle.
DETAILED EDITORS' RATINGS
Dynamics
Inadequate power, but it drives more car-like than the others.
Comfort
Quiet and smooth car-like ride. Driving position is good, but not perfect for taller individuals.
Function
Logical control layout, but the bed is small with large wings that impede rearward visibility. A dual acting tailgate and in-bed trunk is extremely functional, but the spare is hard to access with a load aboard.
Design/Build Quality
Assembly quality is top-notch. The interior design is over-the-top and spartan.
Cargo Hauler An in-bed trunk keeps gear dry and out of sight.
Comfortable It's car-like drive offers more comfort than a typical truck.
