Honda is bringing back a mid-size truck that was not the hottest on the market the last go around. This time Honda looks to challenge conventional thinking in the mid-size pickup market.
The Ridgeline is set to debut at the 2016 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, Michigan on Monday, January 11 at 1:15 p.m. EST. This new truck has been designed, developed and manufactured in America with the hopes that it will be on the road nationwide very soon.
“We developed this new Honda Ridgeline to offer something new and fundamentally better suited to the way many buyers use their truck,” said Jeff Conrad, senior vice president and general manager of the Honda Division. ”
Ridgeline will deliver everything you’d expect in a Honda from incredible packaging and fuel-efficiency to top safety technologies and innovative, segment-first features. We’re honored to once again debut the Ridgeline in Detroit at the North American International Auto Show.”
Like the first generation Ridgeline, which also debuted at NAIAS in 2005, the all-new Ridgeline was designed and developed by Honda R&D Americas, Inc., in its Torrance, California design studio and Raymond, Ohio, research and development center. The Ridgeline and its engine will be produced by Honda Manufacturing of Alabama, Inc., in Lincoln, Alabama.
