TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Hyundai Elantra GT

Hyundai Elantra GT Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearComment
2013 Hyundai made the news a few months ago when it had to revise the EPA ratings for many of its cars. To their credit, they acted quickly, and are compensating previous buyers for the difference. Even with the downward revision, the Elantra GT is rated 26 mpg city (27 with the automatic) and 37 mpg highway. These figures are slightly better than those for the Ford Focus, but slightly worse than those for the Mazda3. see full Hyundai Elantra GT review
Hyundai Elantra GT Real Gas Mileage: Cons
YearComment
Hyundai's 201-horsepower turbocharged 1.6-liter engine doesn't perform nearly as well in the EPA's tests as the 205-horsepower turbocharged 1.5-liter engine in the Civic Si: 22 mpg city and 29 mpg highway vs. 28 and 38, respectively. The far more potent 306-horsepower Civic Type R manages numbers virtually as good as the Hyundai's. You cannot get the Civic Si with a self-shifting transmission. Step down to the Civic Sport with a 180-horsepower 1.5T and a CVT for EPA ratings of 30 city and 36 highway, each four mpg higher that those of the Hyundai 1.6T-DCT combo. see full Hyundai Elantra GT review

2013 4dr Hatch 148-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Fuel economy is disappointing. We will be signing up for whatever lawsuit will get us the most money from Hyundai. We would much prefer that the car get the mileage that was advertised. see full Hyundai Elantra GT review
2013 4dr Hatch 148-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed manual FWD		 In mixed but somewhat city biased driving I have been getting 30+mpg. I haven't done any extensive highway driving at this time. see full Hyundai Elantra GT review

2003 4dr Sedan 182-horsepower 3.0L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 I am getting 22mpg around town when it is not winter and about 20mpg in winter, on the highway 26-27mpg @70mph, loaded for trips. see full Saturn L-Series review
2002 4dr Wagon 182-horsepower 3.0L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 I get at least 20 MPG, no matter what. see full Saturn L-Series review
2000 4dr Sedan 137-horsepower 2.2L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 Respectable: 22-24 MPG around town; 25-28 MPG mixed; 30-33 MPG hwy and long distance. see full Saturn L-Series review

YearBody/PowertrainComment
2003 4dr Sedan 182-horsepower 3.0L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 Average 25 miles per gallon seems quite low for this size car, even if it has a six cylinder engine. see full Saturn L-Series review
2000 4dr Sedan 182-horsepower 3.0L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 It...sucks. For a 190hp v6 I expected 23 or more. I get as low as 17 in the winter, and I max out at 25 at any time in the year all highway. With new plugs I am getting 21-22 around the suburbs, compared to 18/19 earlier. see full Saturn L-Series review
2000 4dr Wagon 182-horsepower 3.0L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 It is way too much fun to drive this car fast, and it will use a lot of fuel if you have a lead foot. Save the high revs for special occasions, and highway mileage can be close to 30 mpg. see full Saturn L-Series review
