Honda Ridgeline

There are plenty of press photos circulating of the Ridgeline Sport—at least the front view—but the team at Brenda & Priddy & Co. revealed these shots that showcase a slight freshening of the current Honda Ridgeline, which is due to launch in November.

These shots provide a good look at the new three-bar grille (absent is its signature floating grille) and new taillight lenses. Priddy and her team have two expectations for the Ridgeline: 1) a small boost in fuel economy, and 2) production for the Ridgeline to continue after the ’12 model year, contrary to recent rumors.
