Does Honda have a small pickup?

No. As of 2026, Honda does not offer a dedicated small pickup in its global lineup. The closest model in Honda’s current catalog is the Ridgeline, a mid-size, unibody pickup that has been sold in North America since 2005. Historically, Honda did manufacture very small kei-truck pickups for Japanese markets—such as the T360 and the Acty—but these were before the current global era of compact pickup offerings and are no longer part of Honda’s mainstream lineup.


Current pickup offering


Honda’s present-day pickup presence centers on a single model that targets mid-size pickup buyers rather than those seeking a truly small truck. The list below outlines what the Ridgeline is today and how it fits into Honda’s lineup.



  • Honda Ridgeline (mid-size pickup): Built on a unibody platform, not a traditional body-on-frame truck.

  • Powertrain and performance: Typically paired with a robust V6 engine and an automatic transmission, with available all-wheel drive on many trims.

  • Ride and practicality: Emphasizes on-road comfort and a car-like ride, with a spacious crew-cab interior and a versatile bed configuration.

  • Availability: Sold in the United States and certain international markets where Honda licenses its trucks, but not positioned as a compact/mini pickup.


In short, the Ridgeline remains Honda’s sole pickup offering in most major markets today, and it is categorized as a mid-size, unibody pickup rather than a small or compact truck.


Historical and regional small pickups


While Honda does not currently market a small pickup, the company has a history of very small pickups in its domestic markets, particularly in Japan. The following points provide a quick look at those past offerings and their regional scope.



  • T360 (1963–1967): A tiny kei-truck introduced in the 1960s, built for Japan’s kei-car segment with a small engine and light payload.

  • TN/other early kei trucks and variants (late 1960s–1970s): Short-wheelbase, compact trucks designed for urban and light commercial tasks in Japan.

  • Acty family (introduced 1977; sold in Japan and some Asian markets for many years): A kei-class truck and van used by small businesses, not marketed as a global small pickup in the United States.


These historical kei-trucks illustrate Honda’s exploration of ultra-compact pickups, but they were never part of a global, small-pickup lineup in the sense of a US- or Europe-scale offering today.


Summary


Today’s answer to whether Honda has a small pickup is no in the global sense. The Ridgeline is Honda’s current pickup, and it sits in the mid-size category with a unibody design rather than a compact, body-on-frame truck. Historically, Honda did produce very small kei-truck pickups for Japanese markets, such as the T360 and Acty, but these models were not part of Honda’s modern, global small-pickup lineup and are no longer in regular production.
