2014 Honda Ridgeline Sport

The 2014 Honda Ridgeline Sport stands out as a comfortable, versatile compact pickup that blends SUV-like ride quality with practical truck utility. Powered by a 250-hp 3.5-liter V6 paired with a five-speed automatic transmission, it delivers smooth performance, though its shifts can occasionally feel rough and its power is considered modest for heavier towing demands. What makes the Ridgeline Sport appealing is its standard all-wheel drive, unibody construction, and car-like handling, which together provide a more refined ride than traditional body-on-frame rivals. Inside, the cabin is roomy and comfortable, though the electronics and interior styling feel dated compared to competitors. The Sport trim adds blacked-out exterior accents, giving it a more aggressive look without major mechanical upgrades. Practicality is a major strength thanks to its innovative in-bed trunk, dual-action tailgate, and 5,000-lb towing capacity, making it a strong choice for buyers who prioritize everyday usability over rugged, heavy-duty capability
