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.

This is a hybrid, comparative to other SUVs, this has the highest fuel economy on the market. Currently, I average 30+ mpg, and that is with AWD.

4dr SUV 133-horsepower 2.3L I4 Hybrid CVT AWD
I was looking for better mileage. I got 33+ no problem. The car taught me how to drive more efficiently. I am getting 34-35+ in the summer months now. My son has learned to drive the same way by starting with the Hybrid.

4dr SUV 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed automatic FWD
The 2.3L had enough performance and got better mileage than the V6. At 65mph on cruise control, it can get 29 to 30mpg fully loaded with 4 people & luggage.

Knew it was not going to be great with V6. After several fillups averages around 19.4 mile per gal.

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.

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.
