The 2012 Honda Ridgeline is built solid to take punishment. The 5000-lb towing capacity and 1550-lb total payload capacity make small work of big jobs. Its strength comes from an integrated closed-box frame with unit-body construction and powerful, 250 hp, V-6 engine. It's no wonder the Honda Ridgeline has won countless awards, including Motor Trend Truck of the Year for 2006 and AJAC Truck of the Year and Best New Pickup for 2006.
The Ridgeline also lays claim to heavy-duty safety, efficiency and a big dose of durability. It even earned the NHTSA quadruple 5-star safety rating for both front and side impacts in 2006. Advanced Honda engineering is also behind the 3.5-litre V6 engine's blend of surprising fuel efficiency, low emissions and abundant power - all on regular unleaded gas. It begins with a high 10:1 compression ratio. Then adds Honda's patented Variable valve Timing and lift Electronic Control (VTEC®) as well as a two-stage intake manifold. These systems work together to maximize torque at lower engine speeds and 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. For the best truck to get you around Montréal and beyond, visit Lombardi Honda!
