TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Chevrolet Cruze

Chevrolet Cruze Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearComment
2016 Weight is the enemy of fuel economy. Partly be reducing the Cruze's curb weight by about 250 pounds, from among the heaviest in the class to among the lightest, Chevrolet improved its EPA ratings from 26 mpg city, 38 mpg highway to 30/42 (30/40 in the tested top-of-the-line trim). The Honda Civic does a little better, 31/42, and the Mazda3 scores nearly as well, 30/41. But all three are close enough to consider them the segment's fuel economy leaders. The Ford Focus scores as high as 30/42, but only when equipped with a turbocharged three-cylinder engine and a manual transmission. For 2017 Chevrolet will offer a new 1.6-liter diesel that should deliver outstanding fuel economy. And if you want to avoid fossil fuels entirely, they already offer the related second-generation Volt, which can travel about 50 miles on electricity before a gasoline-powered backup engine kicks on. see full Chevrolet Cruze review

2014 4dr Sedan turbocharged 138hp 1.4L I4
6-speed manual FWD		 Car is great for fuel economy if you keep your foot out of it. People with any clue how to drive rationally can achieve 42 mpg with little effort in rural highway and highway driving. Most people don?t realize going 10 mph over the speed limit really doesn?t save you any time on a 10 mile trip. Keep your pedal off the metal and the green in your wallet. Engine braking in the manuals is another big gain. Dfco saves a lot of gas. Rather than coasting down to your stop sign and burning your brakes up downshift as you slow and dont burn any fuel Other than a little blip between shifts. You will more than double your brake life if you don?t run the rabbit at every stoplight. see full Chevrolet Cruze review

TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Audi A8 / S8

Audi A8 / S8 Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearComment
2013 Fuel economy might seem an odd, "why to buy" for such a large, powerful car. But this large powerful car manages EPA ratings of 18 mpg city, 28 mpg highway, each one mpg better than the superceded V8. In suburban driving the trip computer typically reported averages in the low 20s, but as high as 25.5. We're a long way from large luxury sedans that had trouble cracking 18. The BMW is rated a bit higher, 19/28, but this is close enough to call it a draw. If you want even better fuel economy, Audi how also offers a 240-horsepower diesel with EPA ratings of 24/36. But the TDI is only available with the long wheelbase and will also cost you another $3,700. BMW offers no comparable car on this side of the Atlantic. see full Audi A8 / S8 review

2004 4dr Sedan, ext. 330-horsepower 4.2L V8
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 The Audi A8L is an interesting car if bought used. As it is a premium model, it is often bought on lease or by rich people. It is also all aluminium - when sold they are usually in great condition. The fuel economy is good for its size - about 12 miles a gallon city and 22 highway. For an 8 cylinder, all wheel drive performance car this is not bad. However high gas prices make it nota very economic choice for the gas version. With the introduction of the diesel version means used vehicles will come onto th eused market in about three years (2106). Fuel consumption will be better. see full Audi A8 / S8 review
