The front of 202 1 Honda Ridgeline has become more square and the ribs on the hood have become more obvious. At the same time, the area of the air intake grille has also increased, and it is integrated with the hood. On the top of the air intake grille, Honda Ridgeline is decorated with chrome-plated decorative strips. This beard-like chrome trim strip extends all the way to the inside of the LED headlight group at the front of the car, making the whole car more imposing and recognizable.
The side of Honda Ridgeline is a typical four-door pickup layout. As a pickup truck, Honda Ridgeline will naturally have a higher ground clearance. The Honda Ridgeline in the above picture is equipped with HPD off-road kit, and the golden rim is matched with the towering wheel arch, which makes the gas field of the whole vehicle stronger.
As an American pickup truck, the loading function is definitely valued by American consumers. It can be seen from the official map that the loading performance of Honda Ridgeline is still relatively strong. After the rear bucket baffle is leveled, you can also load a slightly longer item by other fixing methods. In addition, after the mid-term modification, the original hidden exhaust of Honda Ridgeline has become unilateral, which is more domineering.
Entering the car of Honda Ridgeline, everything is so familiar. The center console of Honda Ridgeline is very similar to many Honda models sold in China. In terms of the big screen of the car, the modified Honda Ridgeline has been upgraded from the original 5-inch screen to the 8-inch screen. The shift mechanism of the vehicle is also different from that of domestic fuel SUV models, which is a button shift mode, and two cup holders are also provided on the right side.

As a pickup truck we are very unfamiliar with, Honda Ridgeline seems to have no plans to introduce into China for the time being. But in China, in view of the gradual relaxation of pickup policy, is Honda willing to bring this Honda Ridgeline to China? Of course, first of all, in terms of vehicle emissions, this 3.5L V6 engine should not catch up with us, and it should be replaced by a 2.0T engine code-named K20C. But what will happen to vehicle prices after the introduction? Maybe Honda won't arrange a production line specifically for this kind of car that is slightly niche in China, so if it wants to introduce domestic sales, it should also adopt the way of vehicle import.
In addition, in recent years, our independent domestic brands have also made great efforts to launch many brand-new pickups, such as the Great Wall Cannon pickup. So, will Honda "rub" this wave of "heat"? Let's wait and see.
