When is the new 2007 Honda Ridgeline coming out?
Does any Ridgeline Owner's Club members know?

I'd like to see if they've made any of our (Ridgeline Owner's Club) suggested changes in it.
Particularly the telescoping steering wheel, trip computer, miles per gallon & miles till empty display, and standard MP3/iPod connection.

It would also be nice is they surprised us with a hybrid version.
I read a newspaper article that said they would have one for 2007, but several Ridgeline Owners Club members wrote that it won't be until 2009.
I hope they do release a 2007 hybrid version of the Honda Ridgeline.
I will be first in line to buy one and I plan on also keeping my well loved 2006 Ridgeline which I've decided never to sell.

Just don't cancel the insurance or your broker may be tempted to come steal it!

New model year usually start between August and November. And most of the time, except for minor fixes, they do not make changes to a vehicle this soon after launch but perhaps since it was a first year you may see more updates than normal. I hear that bluetooth may appear in the 2007 so who knows.

Typically Honda makes major changes in their models every four years. There is a good chance that will not see anything but small updates until 2010. Wow that seems a long time from now.

Actually, Honda typically does a refresh after 3 years, and a complete redesign two years later. Honda has been breaking from that a bit by making minor updates to the recent Civic, Accord, and S2000 models outside of that general timeframe. As far as Ridgeline updates go, I would expect to see a few minor changes in the Ridgeline for 2007, but nothing drastic. We'll probably see redesigned wheels, minor interior tweaks, new colors, and a couple new accessories.

I also wouldn't be suprised to see a minor bump in horsepower to counter the revised methods of calculating horsepower. We're talking about 5-10 horsepower here.

Come on now, giving someone false hope is just another form of teasing! Not fair!
