Honda’s new ridgeline reviewHonda started with the same platform that rides under the Acura MDX and Honda Pilot, but 93 percent of the components have been replaced or modified. The result is something of an oddity: a unibody pickup truck with a transverse-mounted V6, front-wheel drive and a flush bed built into the cab.Typical trucks have a steel frame that provides strength, and the body and bed are bolted to it. Honda took a different tack, integrating the lower frame and upper body into a single structure. Seven high-strength steel cross members were added to the undercarriage, creating a fully boxed ladder frame integrated into the unibody structure. The Ridgeline also has a four-wheel independent suspension, which is a unique attribute for a pickup. It's a combination of McPherson strut suspension up front and coil-sprung multilink suspension out back. Brakes are ventilated 12.6-inch front discs and solid 13.1-inch solid disc brakes in the rear, and are equipped with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution, Electronic BrakeAssist and ABS. Honda 's Variable Torque Management (VTM-4) four-wheel-drive system is also standard. VTM-4 channels power to the front wheels during highway cruising, but can automatically shift a variable amount of power to the rear wheels in slippery conditions. The system also transfers power to the back wheels under hard acceleration, so torque steer is never a problem. For a closer look at this unique drive setup, see the 4WD vs. VTM Sidebar.
