The 2019 Honda Ridgeline is a tough and rugged pickup truck that has several advanced high-tech features that help to make your driving experience more fun, comfortable, and convenient.
We have compared the new 2019 Honda Ridgeline to the iconic Ford Ranger in order to show you just how versatile, powerful, and impressive this truck truly is.
Multi-Functional Exterior
The outside of the truck not only looks good, but it is also extremely functional and specially designed to help to work more productively and efficiently.
The dual-action tailgate allows you to pull the tailgate down flat so that you can set things on it, or you swing it open for an easier way to access the large 5'4" x 5' bed. The bed also features an exclusive lockable in-bed trunk that allows you to store your tools or other small objects safely without worrying about them rolling around in the bed while you are driving.
Just in case you do have large objects that happen to roll around in the bed pf the truck, you can rest easy knowing that the bed will still be in pristine condition, thanks to the UV-stabilized and scratch-resistant bed.
The 2019 Ford Ranger does offer a spacious bed in the back, however, with no in-bed storage trunk and no dual-action tailgate, loading, unloading, and keeping your personal possessions safe and secure becomes a little more tricky.
Interior Space
The 2019 Ridgeline offers one of the most spacious interiors that you can find in a pickup truck. The inside offers plenty of headroom and leg space to ensure that both front seat and back seat passengers have plenty of elbow room.
The backseat also offers an additional way to store your most prized possessions. The back seat folds up into a 60/40 split, giving you plenty of interior cargo space.
Safety
When you drive the Ridgeline, you can rest easy knowing that you and all occupants of the vehicle will be safe. The Ridgeline comes with many standard safety features which include;
- Brake Assist
- 4-Wheel Anti-Lock Brakes
- Collision Mitigation Braking System
- Lane Departure Warning
- Forward Collision Warning
- Hill Start Assist
- Road Departure Mitigation
- Trailer Assist
- Tire Pressure Monitor System
A Trailer Assist system and 4-wheel anti-lock brakes come standard on the 2019 Ford Ranger, however, the Ranger does not offer Lane Departure Warning, Forward Collision Warning, or Road Departure Mitigations system on the standard package.
Power and Fuel Economy
The Honda Ridgeline features a 3.5-litre V6 engine that is mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission and is capable of producing 280 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque.
In order to ensure that the Ridgeline is able to get through any rough offroad trail, it comes equipped with a fully independent front and rear suspension and an Intelligent Traction Management System that allows you to easily switch driving modes to accommodate for different road conditions, including snow, sand, and mud.
