Honda high-tech puts 247 horsepower and 245 lb.-ft. of torque underfoot for authoritative launches and gutsy acceleration, even when hauling heavy loads or big trailers. That strong V-6 is mated to an equally advanced and thoroughly robust 5-speed automatic transmission. And both are built extra-tough, for the long haul. Ridgeline RTS shown in Formal Black. POWERFUL FACTS: Advanced engineering is behind the 3.5-liter V-6 engines blend of surprising fuel efficiency, 1 low emissions and abundant power all on regular-grade gas. It begins with a high 10:1 compression ratio. We also added our patented Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control (VTECR) as well as a two-stage intake manifold. These systems work together to maximize torque at lower engine speeds, and to help boost horsepower as engine speeds increase. A unique fresh-air intake helps keep output strong, even in high-temperature, heavy-duty driving and towing conditions. Flog them responsibly. 247
