2008 4dr Sedan 169-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 Fuel economy is very good for vehicle this size. Ecotec is great on the highway. 3.6 Alloytec V6 with 6-speed is also surprisingly fuel frugal. see full Saturn AURA review

6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 The Aura XR has an EPA rating of 18/26 (give or take). We consistently average 20+ in town and for 252hp, it averaged a respectable 28.5 - 30.3npg on a recent 18hr road trip. Did I mention we were fully loaded (4 humans and a full trunk)! see full Saturn AURA review

2007 4dr Sedan 224-horsepower 3.5L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 Its six cylinder engine could not realistically be compared with a four. I really wanted to consider the Aura GL, and had had a request in to a dealer to let me know when they got one in. I never received a response to the call. see full Saturn AURA review

Chevrolet Traverse Real Gas Mileage: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2016 4dr SUV 281-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 I'd love to have better mileage; but, I also want cargo capacity and comfort. That's the tradeoff. The newer Traverse has a 9-speed transmission that no doubt helps it get a few more miles per gallon but it also has auto stop/start (which I'm not fond of). Mileage on the trip to and from New Jersey was right at 24 MPG--when I remember my last Chevy (IROC-Z28 with L-98 engine) I realize that was the same mileage I got from a car that had little utility. see full Chevrolet Traverse review
2012 4dr SUV 281-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Fuel economy literally sucks!! I guess it's the price you pay for driving a big vehicle with all-wheel drive. I also own a new GMC 4x4 quad cab truck with a 6 liter engine. My truck gets better fuel economy than my 3.6 liter Traverse. Maybe I just got stuck with a lemon. I'm told that fuel economy is supposed to get better once the engine gets more km's on it. I doubt it will improve very much at all to notice any savings at the pump. see full Chevrolet Traverse review
