2006 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed automatic AWD		 For a teenager that does lots of driving for parttime job and to school, needed a vehicel that was large enough to be safe in traffic, yet give good gas mileage. see full Honda Element review

2011 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed automatic FWD		 Sure wish I could get 30 MPG in this thing instead of 20 (though I have gotten 26 on long trips as long as I don't let my wife drive) see full Honda Element review
2005 4dr SUV 160-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed manual AWD		 This is my only major gripe with the vehicle... I seem to get a consistent 22mpg, whether it is city driving, long flat highways, or mountains. If I go out of my way to drive conservatively, or use a medium-to-heavy foot with the aid conditioner, the difference is completely negligible... it's pretty much always 22mpg. see full Honda Element review
2004 4dr SUV 160-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed automatic AWD		 20 mpg city, 24 mpg hiway, low for such a small, lightweight car. see full Honda Element review
2004 4dr SUV 160-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 Wish it got better fuel economy, but what do you expect for a brick? see full Honda Element review
2003 4dr SUV 160-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed manual AWD		 I always get exactly 20 mpg, which seams low see full Honda Element review
2003 4dr SUV 160-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed automatic AWD		 It stinks! The EX is a bit heavy which drags the MPG to 21/25. see full Honda Element review

4-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 I average 25 mpg, about 10 mpg better than my previous car. see full Scion xB review
2008 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 way better than what i had! 31 mpg commuting 60 miles a day. see full Scion xB review

2015 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed manual FWD		 worst thing about this car - a smaller car but average is about 22-24 average. Plus with tank range of 250 miles, you will be filling up often see full Scion xB review
2011 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed manual FWD		 For a 4 cylinder vehicle, the mpg could be better. (How about a 6th gear Scion!?). I average between 24-28, have gotten over 30 at times. Gas mileage is alright if you stay under 70mph on the interstate/highways. I actually get the best mileage in town see full Scion xB review
2010 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 2-3 pg less than the cube. see full Scion xB review
2010 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed manual FWD		 I expect better than 30mpg for a small car like this. Needs a taller 5th gear, or a 6th gear. see full Scion xB review
2009 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Best that can be said is that fuel economy is average for car of its weight and engine displacement. Automatic transmission only available in 4sp w/OD. A 5 or 6 speed tranny would be better. see full Scion xB review
2008 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 could be better. I avg between 25-30mpg per tank...depending on how much city driving I do. see full Scion xB review
