The car gets descent fuel economy. It is not as good as I would have expected a 1.8L to be, but is as good or better than other cars I was considering (VW Rabbit and Mazda3). see full Saturn ASTRA review

An AWD V8 body on frame SUV/truck like the Rainier will be a gas pig. Mid to high teens are all you should expect. The benefit of poor gas mileage is strong towing performance. see full Buick Rainier review
