Honda CR-Z Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2014 2dr Hatch 130-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid
6-speed manual FWD
I have averaged about 40 MPG for the 3500 miles I have driven. I feel this is very good since most of my driving has lots of hills, stops, turns, and the speed limit on our interstate highways is 70 MPH. see full Honda CR-Z review
2011 2dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid
6-speed manual FWD
In real life, potential to be much better than official ratings. My 6 speed manual current average in all winter driving (have not driven during the summer yet) stands at 43 mpg (us). see full Honda CR-Z review

Great on gas see full Honda CR-Z review
2011 2dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid

MPG is quite variable. I've seen 28 in short city driving up to 48 when hypermiling on the highway. see full Honda CR-Z review

2009 4dr Sedan 415-horsepower 6.2L V8
6-speed shiftable automatic RWD
Low teens in town, and 24mpg tops on the highway make this a less than ideal economy car. see full Pontiac G8 review
2009 4dr Sedan 256-horsepower 3.6L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD
The most MPGs I ever had was 25 and that was all highway driving at about 70. see full Pontiac G8 review
2009 4dr Sedan 361-horsepower 6.0L V8
6-speed shiftable automatic RWD
Not bad mileage figures given the size of the car and the beast of an engine, but this is not a car for the hybrid set. see full Pontiac G8 review

Is very low in stop-and-go traffic. Gets better with time, I understand. see full Pontiac G8 review
