YearBody/PowertrainComment
2013 2dr Coupe turbocharged 211hp 2.0L I4
8-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Mileage seems to have leveled out at about 27 mpg with a 60/40 mix of highway and suburban driving. On longer trips, it has been as high as 30 mpg while driving a steady 75 mph. see full Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 review
2010 2dr Coupe turbocharged 211hp 2.0L I4
6-speed manual AWD		 Averaging 9L/100KM, without feeling too conservative. see full Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 review
Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 Real Gas Mileage: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2011 2dr Coupe 354-horsepower 4.2L V8
6-speed manual AWD		 I knew what gas mileage the S5 got long before I stepped onto the dealer lot. Still, I get 24 mpg on a full highway run. see full Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 review
2009 2dr Coupe turbocharged 170hp 2.0L I4 Diesel
6-speed manual AWD		 Fuel economy is fair when going for a long ride, the car is AWD and heavy. I did however expect a somewhat lower fuel consumption when driving short-distance. see full Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 review
2008 2dr Coupe 354-horsepower 4.2L V8
6-speed manual AWD		 It is not great, and if you have fun with the car, you will get less than 15MPG see full Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 review
2008 2dr Coupe 354-horsepower 4.2L V8
6-speed manual AWD		 drinks too fast when driving is more aggressive see full Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 review
2008 2dr Coupe 354-horsepower 4.2L V8
6-speed manual AWD		 Thirsty V8 coupled with a car that was born to be driven hard equals mid-teen MPG in mostly non-highway driving. see full Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 review

Nissan Maxima Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2010 4dr Sedan 290-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD		 16-17 in the city. 25-26 on the freeway. Not bad than other comparable cars. see full Nissan Maxima review
2009 4dr Sedan 290-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD		 It is between 25-29.2 on the highway depending on headwinds. It seems sensitive to wind, mileage-wise. In town is excellent. In 4k miles the worst tank has been 23.2 when it was brand new and very cold out. City mileage is understated in my opinion. see full Nissan Maxima review
2003 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed manual FWD		 I get between 26-27mpg. see full Nissan Maxima review
2003 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 Fuel economy is great for a 250+ horsepower automatic see full Nissan Maxima review
2003 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed manual FWD		 it averages about 20 mpg consistently see full Nissan Maxima review
2002 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed manual FWD		 For a large car with a relatively large engine, this engine is mirror smooth which helps it get great highway mileage. see full Nissan Maxima review
2002 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed manual FWD		 I consistently get 25 in the city, and 33-34 all highway. Excellent fuel economy for any car, let alone one with a 3.5L V6. see full Nissan Maxima review
Nissan Maxima Real Gas Mileage: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2011 4dr Sedan 290-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD		 Not as good as advertised see full Nissan Maxima review
2010 4dr Sedan 290-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD		 Depends on a lot on your right foot. Driven like a Prius, 26 MPG city and 33 MPG highway. Driven normally with occasionally throttle bursts, 27 MPG highway, 21 MPG combined. The CVT ratio spread maxes out at 2200 RPM at 75; a little high for MPG. see full Nissan Maxima review
2009 4dr Sedan 290-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD		 City driving is brutal on mpg. If you get 12 mpg you are doing well. Highway miles are great - over 30, so great on trips, stinks for commuting. see full Nissan Maxima review
2008 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD		 Not as good in town as expected. Get around 20-22 mpg in town, 25-28 on hi-way see full Nissan Maxima review
2006 4dr Sedan 265-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 24MPG on the HWY. Come on...Crown Victoria is almost 30 has a V8 and gets 29 MPG on the HWY. see full Nissan Maxima review
2002 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed manual FWD		 This car loves to suck gas especially when pushed. And not just any gas, the high compression VQ35DE engine requires premium. In my experiences anything less than 91 octane will yield poor performance and odd engine noises. I average 17-18 mpg at best. see full Nissan Maxima review
