17-18 around town, 20+ on the highway on regular fuel. see full Honda Ridgeline review
Honda Ridgeline Real Gas Mileage: Cons

Like many have said, should get better gas mileage for its smaller size. see full Honda Ridgeline review

Should get better mileage for a smaller truck. see full Honda Ridgeline review

16-18 MPG from a Honda is dismal. I averaged 20 MPG in my 2004 4x4 Ranger super cab. see full Honda Ridgeline review

My records show the published manufacturer figures are excellent but competators seem to be doing a bit better see full Honda Ridgeline review

It does not have a fuel advantage for being a unit body. I am getting only a 1 mpg combined city/highway economy improvment over my Dodge Ram 3500 Megacab Diesel 4x4(which has been sold to buy this Honda.) see full Honda Ridgeline review
2007 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD
I typically get 18 mpg in suburban driving, and 22 mpg at a steady highway cruise. Not awful, but I would like better mileage from a 3.5L V-6. see full Honda Ridgeline review

13-15mpg around town. 18mpg on the road. Knew this going in though and I still LOVE this truck! see full Honda Ridgeline review
2007 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6

The fuel economy is no better than other V6 trucks, and barely better than some V8 trucks. see full Honda Ridgeline review
2006 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD
I would like to be 20+ mpg but in this category the Ridgeline is a "clunker" at about 15-18 mpg. see full Honda Ridgeline review
2006 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6

i expected better- i get 17-18 over all. with a 1500 4wd chevy w/5.3 liter i got the same or better with much more power. see full Honda Ridgeline review

36.1 mpg at 70 - 75 mph between Jackson WY and Denver with only 1,000 miles on the odometer. 25 mpg so far in pure city driving with many short trips. see full Kia Spectra review

First tank of gas was 25 mpg all in town driving. Not bad. see full Kia Spectra review
