Pickup trucks always rank among the most popular vehicle options available to customers. Inside the Bannister Honda inventory, the 2023 Honda Ridgeline picks up that mantle for our customers looking for a highly capable and well-equipped truck platform. The 2023 Ridgeline stands out from the competition in several ways, but one of the most important reasons is that it’s built for daily use, prioritizing comfort and on-road handling manners. Follow along with Bannister Honda as we closely examine this innovative platform.
Exterior Design & Features
Rugged & Bold Exterior
The 2023 Honda Ridgeline sets a rugged and bold standard from the second a person lays their eyes on it. A bold front grille design gives us an early clue about its capability and the design choices in the rear, like dual exhaust tips, continue that story. LED headlights illuminate the road at night, and other advanced features like rain-sensing windshield wipers are also available equipment options.
Adaptable Cargo Bed Features
Every pickup truck is largely defined by its cargo bed. The box employed by the 2023 Ridgeline features several unique items, including:
- Scratch-resistant bed
- Eight tie-down cleats
- Lockable In-Bed Truck
- Available Truck-Bed Audio System™
Dynamic Colour Options
Everyone at Bannister Honda believes the 2023 Ridgeline will have no trouble meeting its future owners’ needs. After taking a look at its list of available dynamic colour options, we’re positive it will cleanly mesh with its owners’ style as well. The 2023 Honda Ridgeline is available in:
- Modern Steel Metallic
- Platinum White Pearl
- Radiant Red Metallic II
- Crystal Black Pearl
- Sonic Grey Pearl
Interior Design & Features
Interior Passenger Comfort
Driver and passenger comfort features get a lot of attention within the 2023 Ridgeline. Drivers sit on a highly adjustable seat that includes powered lumbar support. Heated front and rear seats and a heated leather-wrapped steering wheel are also available.
Functional Finishes
Rear passengers sit on 60/40 split seats that also act as convenient storage for items that need to be kept out of sight. Drivers will be able to easily reach all of the most critical controls thanks to a very thoughtful design language.
Performance & Efficiency
Engine & Efficiency Info
Every 2023 Honda Ridgeline uses the same engine platform, a naturally aspirated 3.5-litre, V-6. It will produce 280 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque. It is mated to a nine-speed automatic transmission.
All-Wheel Drive Capability
The Honda all-wheel drive system will be standard equipment on all 2023 Ridgeline models coming to the Bannister Honda showroom. Additionally, all models also come with the automaker’s Intelligent Traction Management system, with separate settings for driving in snow, sand, and mud.
Ridgeline Towing Capacity
Pickup trucks and towing capability are a pretty natural pairing. The 2023 Ridgeline is well-suited for many towing jobs. The latest version of the Honda pickup truck can pull up to 2,267 kg (5,000 lbs.) when it is properly equipped.

Honda has made compatibility with the Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto® suites of applications standard equipment in the 2023 Ridgeline. Additionally, the automaker has also made a wireless charging tray standard across the board as well.

At some point, you’ll need to drive somewhere on the coldest day of the year. The available remote starter and proximity key entry system will make sure you get into a warm vehicle without having to slow down while fumbling for keys.
