Engine Specs and Fuel Economy

The 2025 Honda Ridgeline is powered by a robust 3.5-liter V6 engine, delivering an impressive 280 horsepower and the ability to tow up to 5,000 pounds. Paired with the i-VTM4 all-wheel drive system, it also features Intelligent Traction Management, offering three distinct modes to handle different terrains such as mud, snow, and sand. A nine-speed automatic transmission ensures smooth shifting, while providing ample passing power with a 0-60 mph time of just 6 seconds. The Ridgeline’s sharp steering and four-wheel independent suspension contribute to a comfortable and refined ride, setting it apart from competitors. Fuel efficiency remains competitive within its class, with EPA estimates of 18 mpg in the city and 24 mpg on the highway. If you choose the TrailSport trim with its all-terrain tires, highway fuel economy adjusts slightly to 23 mpg.
