2017 Honda Ridgeline Fuel Economy Figures Announced
The 2017 Honda Ridgeline will return up to 26 mpg on the highway.
Fuel economy figures for the new pickup have been announced with the all-wheel-drive 2017 Honda Ridgeline returning 18 mpg in the city and 25 mpg on the highway. Those figures keep it competitive with other V6 offerings in the segment, besting the Chevrolet Colorado’s 17-mpg city and 24-mpg highway ratings. It also bests the Toyota Tacoma V6’s 18-mpg city and 23-mpg highway ratings.

The 2017 Honda Ridgeline is also available in front-wheel drive for the first time with that model getting an EPA-rated 19 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway. Honda isn’t offering a four-cylinder engine with its new Ridgeline, which means if fuel economy is your main priority, you may want to consider other trucks that do have four-cylinder mills.

Honda Ridgeline had a problem with the fuel consumption in previous models. We are pleased that this serious problem solved with the new four-cylinder engine. We hope that you will not lose performance. There were rumors about a potential diesel engine? The design is different and it is very attractive.
Stephen a smith laugh. that is all.
