How much is insurance on a Honda Ridgeline?

A 2024 Honda Ridgeline runs about $1,780 a year for a typical 45-year-old, $170 less than an average car of the same age, because of lower crash-repair losses, fewer injury claims, lower non-crash losses, and less damage to others' property. Putting a new 16-year-old on a family policy with the Ridgeline adds about $1,170 a year (#1 of 9 small pickups we compare).

2024 Honda Ridgeline (Ridgeline AWD), national average

about $1,780 a year (about $150 a month)

Estimated range: $1,300–$2,400. Actual quotes can fall outside it.

An average car of the same age (what HLDI's 2022–24 results measure against) runs about $1,940 a year. A used 2012 Ridgeline drops to about $1,450 (see the table below).

Priced for the 2024 Ridgeline AWD, the newest year covered by HLDI's loss data (2022–24 models), for a 45-year-old driver with a clean record and full coverage. HLDI's results combine drivers of all ages. We apply them to one example driver (a 45-year-old with a clean record) so pages are comparable; they aren't specific to 45-year-olds. Each state raises or lowers every car's price by the same percentage, so the Ridgeline's rank is the same in every state.

Why the Honda Ridgeline costs what it does

What HLDI reports (2022–24 models, all drivers combined)

The Highway Loss Data Institute (HLDI) compares each model's insurance losses with an average car's. For the Honda Ridgeline crew cab 4WD, on HLDI's scale where 100 is an average car and lower is better, it reports 77 for crash repairs, 82 for non-crash damage, 91 for damage to others' property, and 79 for injury claims.

What we estimate that means for price

Prices move less than loss results do: a car's loss record is only one of many things insurers weigh, and each weighs it differently. So we count only part of HLDI's difference. Combining crash repairs and non-crash damage (weighted about 71% and 29%, the share each makes up of industry claim costs), the Ridgeline comes out about 22% better than average. We count about 40% of that difference, so the part of the bill that fixes the car is about 9% less than average: about $870 a year vs $950. On the liability side, damage to others and injury claims combine to about 16% better than average. We count about half, so that part is about 8% less: $910 a year vs $990.

How the math works

In EPA size classes, the Ridgeline is a full-size pickup (gas-powered). In Highway Loss Data Institute loss tables, the Honda Ridgeline is benchmarked against small pickups.

One model year per age group. Liability only: no coverage for the car itself. Teen columns: a new 16-year-old. Each row uses the HLDI report that covers that model year.

Our catalog covers the Honda Ridgeline across model years 2006–2014, 2017–2026. Full coverage on a used 2012 Ridgeline (13 or more years old) runs about $1,450 a year, $330 less than on a 2024. Dropping collision and comprehensive on that 2012 brings liability-only coverage to about $910 a year. Each photo shows that year's generation of the car. Photo credits.

All 2 versions of the 2024 Honda Ridgeline in our catalog (Ridgeline AWD and Ridgeline AWD TrailSport) price within about $50 a year of each other.

On a policy of their own with a 2024 Honda Ridgeline, a 22–25-year-old pays about $2,310 a year ($530 more than a 45-year-old), a 26–39-year-old about $1,970, and a driver 65 and older about $1,860.

Adding a 16-year-old with a Honda Ridgeline

Because the Honda Ridgeline starts from lower losses than most cars, adding a new 16-year-old driver raises the family bill by about $1,170 a year ($100 a month), $110 less than adding a teen with an average car of the same age. Putting that 16-year-old on a policy of their own instead costs about $5,100 a year, about $3,920 more than sharing the family policy.

For adding a teen driver, the Honda Ridgeline ranks 19th cheapest out of all 121 models we track. Stepping down to a used 2012 Ridgeline (13 or more years old) brings the teen add-on to about $960 a year.

That increase is how much the family bill goes up with a new 16-year-old driving this car. Cheapest cars to insure for a teen.
