2007	4dr SUV 133-horsepower 2.3L I4 Hybrid CVT AWD	Great in city, good on highway, runs in electrical mode occasionally which is fun. For a 4WD non aerodynamic mini-truck the economy is stellar. see full Ford Escape review

Ford Escape Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2014	4dr SUV turbocharged 178hp 1.6L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Slightly less fuel mileage than I would have expected from the 1.6 turbo. Currently averaging about 24 in mixed driving. And I am not a lead foot with this car. see full Ford Escape review
2012	4dr SUV 171-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed automatic FWD	Fuel economy suffers thanks to the need to downshift for even smaller hills and the vehicle's brick-like aerodynamic profile. EPA ratings are 20/28, real-world is closer to 24. see full Ford Escape review
2008	4dr SUV 200-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	Surprised by how bad the fuel economy is so far (but have only had a month)... less than 15 mpg for my driving, mostly back and forth to work, 1.5 miles in a small town... but I can live with it because I really love this car. see full Ford Escape review
2006	4dr SUV 200-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic AWD	16-18 MPG in town, old V8 Jeep Grand Cherokee was not much worse. Should get more mileage out of a six. see full Ford Escape review
2006	4dr SUV 200-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	Knew it was not going to be great with V6. After several fillups averages around 19.4 mile per gal. see full Ford Escape review
2005	4dr SUV 200-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic AWD	Perhaps the 6 speed automatics are better, but the 4 speeds just suck! Not good at all, in my humble opinion, for a vehicle this size. see full Ford Escape review
2002	4dr SUV 201-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic AWD	I averaged about 14 city and 17.5 on trips, which for a vehicle this size is terrible. see full Ford Escape review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Ford Fusion

Ford Fusion Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2015	4dr Sedan 141-horsepower 2.0L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	42.3 mpg since new. 85% highway, 10% suburban, 5% city. A/C always on, careful but not "multimiler" driving. see full Ford Fusion review
2013	4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	I have close to 3000 miles on this car and the last 2 gas fill ups have been 22.6 mpg which is slightly higher then the EPA city rating. Being that it is still winter & all my driving so far has been city driving I am very satisfied with the gas mileage. see full Ford Fusion review
2012	4dr Sedan 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	I generaly get 23-24 miles per gallon in town and 29-34 miles per gallon on the interstate. That beats all other cars I have owned..probably more that 20. see full Ford Fusion review
2011	4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	Over 40 MPG in the city. see full Ford Fusion review
2010	4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed automatic FWD	Up to 35 mpg on the Highway. see full Ford Fusion review
2010	4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	Was looking for a hybrid. Based on magazine reviews, I narrowed it to this or a Prius. see full Ford Fusion review
2010	4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	35 miles per see full Ford Fusion review
2010	4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	The Fusion Hybrid when driven as outlined in the owner�s manual rewards you with the best in class fuel economy which is far above the advertized mileage for the car. The car has great power which is on par with the V6 version of the same car. I now have see full Ford Fusion review

2008	4dr Sedan 221-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed automatic FWD	Originally thought it was great on fuel, after owning it is still respectable but not as good as I thought it would be. I end up doing more city driving than highway though. see full Ford Fusion review

Ford Fusion Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2013	4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	18.5mpg, vs 22mpg rated city driving. Not disatisfied. Really like the car, so don't care. see full Ford Fusion review
2011	4dr Sedan 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	My primary complaint with the vehicle as a whole definitely comes down to fuel economy. I've owned several other vehicles that should generally be less economical that actually are almost the same. My primary example is one of my previous cars, a supercharged 1996 Buick Park Avenue. Overall average fuel economy with that Buick was about 20, with 70% city driving. Overall fuel economy with my V6 3.0 Fusion is...about 20 with the same driving conditions. Its to be noted that car's posted fuel economy figures for highway driving aren't really attainable. 240 HP in a midsize car isn't bad...but I sometimes wish I'd gotten the 4 cylinder. see full Ford Fusion review
