Impressive power, a roomy interior, and a versatile bed make the 2025 Honda Ridgeline one of the most capable trucks on the market. Configuring this midsize truck to match your needs is easy thanks to the four trim levels.

1. Sport

We begin with the Sport, a rugged truck boasting 18-inch shark gray alloy wheels, a dual chrome exhaust, and LED automatic headlights, brake lights, and fog lamps. At the rear, Honda's innovative dual-action tailgate opens downwards or swings open, giving you easy access to the bed.

The spacious interior is heated and cooled by tri-zone automatic climate control. Drivers can view important info at a glance on the seven-inch instrument cluster. Infotainment is delivered by a nine-inch color touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, letting you sync your phone and play your favorite tunes through the seven-speaker audio system.

Honda Sensing

Every Ridgeline, including the Sport, comes with Honda Sensing, an extensive suite of driver-assist technologies. Standard features include collision mitigation braking, adaptive cruise control, and blind-spot monitoring. You also receive a multi-angle rearview camera to help with reversing and parking.

2. RTL

Building on the Sport, the RTL introduces more desirable features, such as machined wheels and heated side mirrors. An internal makeover sees leather adorning the upholstery and a heated 10-way power-adjustable driver's seat installed at the front. The new memory function lets you save the seat settings of two drivers.

3. TrailSport

Next, we have the TrailSport which gains off-road upgrades to make it the most adventurous Ridgeline in the lineup. An off-road tuned suspension and all-terrain tires help you conquer even the toughest trails, while skid plates protect the underbody from rocks and flying debris. Honda's most capable trim also receives stylish LED daytime running lights and parking sensors at the front and rear.

Orange contrast stitching and orange ambient lighting lend the cabin a more sporty feel. Drivers receive a heated steering wheel and a navigation system built into the infotainment system.

4. Black Edition

Although it loses the off-road capabilities of the TrailSport, the Black Edition retains all the premium features and adds Berlina black wheels and LED bed lighting. The interior seems more upmarket thanks to the red stitching adorning the heated and ventilated front seats. A comfort boost sees rear passengers enjoying instant warmth from the heated rear seating. An infotainment upgrade introduces HD Radio and an eight-speaker premium audio system.

Whether you're after a reliable work vehicle or a truck to help you explore the road less traveled, there's a Ridgeline to satisfy your needs. Check out the full lineup by contacting us or visiting Penske Honda Ontario in Ontario, CA today.

The 2025 Honda Civic Sedan vs. the 2025 Honda Civic Hatchback: Compact Car Comparison

Since it first rolled off the production line in 1972, the Honda Civic has consistently been the perfect daily commuter. Buyers can choose between two body styles at the Honda dealership: the 2025 Honda Civic Sedan if they need the most fuel efficiency and the 2025 Honda Civic Hatchback if they need extra cargo space. more The 2025 Honda Civic Sedan vs. the 2025 Honda Civic Hatchback: A Honda Dealership Guide The Sedan Is More Fuel-Efficient The Honda Civic's base engine is a 2.0L Atkinson-Cycle inline-4, producing 150 horsepower and 133 lb-ft of torque. It features VTC technology and comes mated to a continuously variable transmission (CVT.)  Despite producing identical power and torque figures in both body styles, the engine delivers an EPA-estimated 36 mpg combined in the base sedan and 34 mpg combined in the base hatchback. At the Sport Hybrid and Sport Touring Hybrid trim levels, the Honda Civic's powertrain incorporates a 2.0L inline-4 and two electric motors, producing a net 200 horsepower and 232 lb-ft of torque. The more efficient hybrid sedan comes equipped with an eCVT and delivers 49 mpg combined, while the hybrid hatchback models feature an LL-CVT and deliver 48 mpg combined. Some of the sedan's fuel efficiency comes from its more aerodynamic design and lighter body weight. The Hatchback Offers More Cargo Space Opening up the Civic Sedan's rear trunk reveals 14.8 cubic feet of cargo room, which is ample space to store a month's worth of groceries. The Civic Hatchback offers a more generous 24.5 cubic feet behind its liftgate, making it more suitable for stowing luggage on a family getaway. Additionally, the hatchback body style allows you to haul bigger payloads by folding the rear seats. The Hybrid Sedans Are More Spacious At the Sport Hybrid and Sport Touring Hybrid trim levels, the sedans provide 39.3 inches of front headroom, while the hatchback variants provide 37.6 inches. This is because the sedans feature a longer chassis, measuring 184.8 inches compared to the hatchback's 179 inches, which translates to more room for the high-voltage battery. However, both body styles offer a comfortable 42.3 inches of front legroom and 37.4 inches of rear legroom across all trim levels. The Sedan Features the More Affordable LX Trim The Honda Civic Sedan lineup features the LX trim, which provides a lower entry price for buyers on a tight budget. For comparison, the Civic Hatchback starts at the higher Sport trim level, which offers numerous upgrades over the LX, such as heated power side mirrors, Smart Entry with Walk Away Auto Lock, a sport pedal, and a leather-wrapped shift knob.

However, we lend to people that banks and credit unions often refuse to lend to. You don't need a perfect credit score to get dealership financing, so we enable people to buy cars when they wouldn't have been able to otherwise. 3.
