TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban

Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Comment
2015	You didn't expect to see fuel economy among the reasons to buy a Tahoe, did you? Of course, fuel economy remains well below that for most smaller, lighter vehicles. But General Motors has substantially improved the SUV's efficiency by adding variable valve timing, direct injection (fuel is injected under high pressure directly into the cylinder, rather than into the manifold), and cylinder deactivation to the 5.3-liter V8. EPA ratings improved from 15 city, 21 highway to 16/23 with 2WD and 16/22 with 4WD. I observed averages as high as 21 in the suburbs and 26 on the highway, quite impressive for an 80-inch-wide, 74-inch-tall, three-ton vehicle. Transitions between V4 and V8 operation are not perceptible, with the engine usually in the former mode when not accelerating, even at highway speeds. Ford took a different approach to improving fuel economy, replacing its 5.4-liter V8 with a turbocharged 3.5-liter V6. The resulting EPA ratings of 15 mpg city and 20 mpg highway are better than before, but aren't as good as the Tahoe's. My trip computer averages were similarly two to three mpg shy of those observed in the Tahoe. see full Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban review

2010	4dr SUV, ext. 320-horsepower 5.3L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic 4WD w/low range	I don't really have any complaints about this vehicle for our uses.

2005	4dr SUV, ext. 295-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic 4WD w/low range	At $4 a gallon and a 32 gallon gas tank, you feel it every time you fill up and if you drive a lot in the city, at 15 mpg, you will fill up often. The vehicle actually garners a respectable 21 mpg on the highway. see full Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban review

2014	"Most fuel-efficient minivan" might seem like faint praise, but the Honda Odyssey does hold this title. For such a large vehicle EPA ratings of 19 mpg city, 28 mpg highway are fairly impressive. The Toyota checks in with 18/25, the Chrysler with 17/25. see full Honda Odyssey review

Honda Odyssey Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	0	Driven sensibly at 60-65, fuel economy seemed excellent, but step-wise, for every 5 mph over, fuel economy seemed to drop precipitously. However, the "ECO" function, in which 3 cylinders "drop out" when not needed, seemed to work well, assuming good momentum at the moment. So I can't complain too much. see full Honda Odyssey review
2007	4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	These days, we should be getting much more than 24 mpg from all cars -- even minivans. see full Honda Odyssey review
2007	4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD 5-speed automatic FWD	Way, way worse than advertised in 2007. If I knew it was this poor I would not have bought it. Worse than my Chevrolet Trailblazer 4x4! see full Honda Odyssey review

2002	4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	Never got over 20 miles per gallon on the open road despite modest driving habits. My Routan gets 26 and my Plymouth Voyageur got 25 +. The 3.5 V6 in the Honda is reliable, but terrible economy for a mini-van. see full Honda Odyssey review
