| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |

17-18 around town, 20+ on the highway on regular fuel. |
| Honda Ridgeline Fuel Economy: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr SUT 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Should get better mileage for a smaller truck. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
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.) |
| 2008 | 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
My records show the published manufacturer figures are excellent but competators seem to be doing a bit better |
| 2008 | 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
16-18 MPG from a Honda is dismal. I averaged 20 MPG in my 2004 4x4 Ranger super cab. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
The fuel economy is no better than other V6 trucks, and barely better than some V8 trucks. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
13-15mpg around town. 18mpg on the road. Knew this going in though and I still LOVE this truck! |
| 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. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
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. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
It is not very good but to be expected with this type of vehicle.I get approx.15 to 25 miles per gallon depending on conditions. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
I average between 17-18 MPG in daily driving. Hoped for more. Great truck in any case. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Mileage is good for large pickup but compared to previous vehicles is less than desirable. |
| 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. |
