How Honda Structures the Ridgeline Lineup

The 2026 Honda Ridgeline is available in 6 trims: Sport, RTL, TrailSport, TrailSport+HPD Wheels, Black Edition, Black Edition Two-Tone. The Sport is the entry point, and the Black Edition Two-Tone sits at the top of the range. All trims share the same platform and core engineering. What changes between them is features, comfort, and in some cases wheels and appearance.

Adjacent trims usually differ in tech and convenience features. Bigger jumps often include powertrain or capability changes. If you're still deciding between models, see the full Honda hub. If you're not sure which trim level to target, our how to pick a trim guide and packages vs. trims breakdown can help.
