What Is the Honda Ridgeline Towing Capacity?
When properly equipped, the Honda Ridgeline is capable of towing up to 5,000 pounds. That’s more than enough to hook up the trailer for your upcoming move. It may even be what you need to bring along your boat or jet skis for some fun on the water. No matter which of the four available Ridgeline trim levels you go for, your towing capacity remains the same. That’s thanks in large part to the standard 3.5L V6 i-VTEC® engine that’s found under the hood. Along with the 5,000-pound towing capacity, this engine also provides up to 280 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque to help you make a difference on the open road.
Additional Honda Ridgeline Capacities
Falling in line with the 5,000-pound Honda Ridgeline towing capacity is the payload capacity provided by its spacious truck bed and additional cargo areas. With the payload capacity, you will see variation among its four trim level styles:
Trim Level |
Payload Capacity |
Sport |
1,583 pounds |
RTL |
1,544 pounds |
RTL-E |
1,509 pounds |
Black Edition |
1,509 pounds |
Clearly, there’s plenty you can bring along whether you’re towing a trailer or loading up your truck bed. In your truck bed, you’ll have 33.9 cubic feet of cargo volume to fit everything you need. Plus, you have the brilliant standard In-Bed Trunk®, which allows for an additional 7.3 cubic feet of cargo possibilities for your smaller items.
Honda Ridgeline Towing & Payload Features
Like the In-Bed Trunk®, the Honda Ridgeline is packed with features that take your towing, payload, and cargo capabilities to new levels. At the forefront of those is the standard integrated Class III trailer hitch, which can make hooking up a breeze. The Ridgeline also comes standard with eight heavy-duty truck-bed tie-down cleats to help you keep things secure. Additionally, the following features are sure to lend a hand when you’re looking to tow, pack up your truck, or make the most of your truck bed:
- Dual-action tailgate
- Lay-flat truck bed
- Available truck-bed power outlet & audio system
- Available bed extender

The possibilities for towing, hauling, and storage are nearly endless in the Honda Ridgeline. With these features and many more, you’ll be the star of the show at your next beach trip or tailgate.
