TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Chevrolet Camaro

Chevrolet Camaro Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Comment
	Another fairly obvious "why not to buy," for either car: fuel economy. The tested Camaro scored 16 mpg city and 25 mpg highway in the EPA's tests, slightly better than the Mustang's 15/25. The automatic has an even taller top gear and when paired with it the V8 can deactivate four cylinders, so it manages 17 mpg city, 28 mpg highway--the latter figure as high as that for the Camaro V6 automatic (19/28). For significantly better fuel economy it's necessary to get the 2.0-liter turbo, which scores 21/30 with a manual and 22/31 with an automatic. In my 300-odd miles of driving I averaged 16.5 mpg. If I drove with a light foot I could coax the average slightly over 20. I observed similar real-world numbers in the Mustang. On a 70-mph highway the Camaro averaged 24.5, but there might have been a modest headwind. The Mustang averaged 28 in my highway driving. Overall, both achieve very good fuel efficiency for cars of their weight and horsepower, but praise doesn't come much fainter. see full Chevrolet Camaro review

Chevrolet Camaro Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2017	2dr Coupe 455-horsepower 6.2L V8 8-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Surprisingly, this 455hp car, with a 6.2L V8 -- that's 378 cubic inches -- gets decent gas mileage. It averages just over 20mpg, for which I credit the cylinder shutoff feature. So far it's been pretty common to look at the dash when I'm just beetling across town and see that it's in V4 mode, and getting 40 or 50mpg, as long as I'm keeping my right loafer rather light. see full Chevrolet Camaro review

2006	4dr Sedan 303-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Great V8 exhaust note and instant acceleration comes at the cost of about 19 mpg in combined driving, versus 25 with my new car. That is a 30% increase. (the new car is 600 pounds lighter though...) see full Pontiac Grand Prix review
2005	4dr Sedan 303-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	17-19 mpg in the city. 25 If I drive on the intersate. 30 is possible at 60mph. Most of my driving is in the city. The beautiful v8 makes it impossible to stay out of the gas, but it can run on REG fuel. see full Pontiac Grand Prix review
