Product Overview

Honda has unveiled the 2021 facelift for the Ridgeline. This revision gives the Ridgeline a new standard 9-speed transmission (ZF 9HP), improved i-VTM4 torque-vectoring all-wheel drive system, and a new fascia.

On the outside, the 2021 facelift gives the Ridgeline all-new sheet metal from the A-pillar forward. Key changes include a power bulge in the hood, more upright front fender and grille, and updated LED headlights. The crossbar atop the grille now takes a new shape, too, while body color now extends to the bumper and the wheel wells. There is an increased track width of 20mm with the 18-inch standard wheels.

The new Ridgeline retains the 3.5L direct-injected VTEC V6 and pairs it with a new 9-speed automatic transmission sourced from ZF. The i-VTM4 torque-vectoring all-wheel drive system is available on Sport and RTL, and standard on RTL-E and Black Edition. It can send up to 70% of the engine's torque to the rear wheels, with 100% left-to-right torque vectoring.
