Buick Enclave Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2009 4dr SUV 288-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 More than reasonable for a 5000 lb vehicle. Benefits of aero design ( for an SUV ) and six speed transmission both contribute. see full Buick Enclave review
2008 4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 24 - 28 mpg summer highway driving see full Buick Enclave review
2008 4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 for an 8 passenger vehicle that can tow 4,500 pounds. I cannot complain about 19.3 mpg city and 24.7 mpg highway. see full Buick Enclave review
2008 4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Better than competition with regular gas see full Buick Enclave review

Buick Enclave Real Gas Mileage: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2011 0 The fuel economy is abysmal and as far as I know, Buick STILL doesn't offer a hybrid option. The best mileage I've been able to get on long road trips with mostly highway driving is 22-23 mpg. City driving, however, stubbornly stays at 14-15 mpg, no matter what I do! :( see full Buick Enclave review
2009 4dr SUV 288-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Well under (15-20%) below the EPA ratings, though the engine is STILL brand new (<400 miles total). see full Buick Enclave review
2008 4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 In town much less than advertised. O.K. (18-19) on freeway. see full Buick Enclave review
2008 4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 This is the one thing that is a weak point. at 12-16 MPG, this car could use a larger and more efficient engine. Had GM not folded, there was talks of a hybrid version (which still may come out as a Caddy) which we would definitely buy without hesitation. see full Buick Enclave review

6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Car is still in break-in period, but not seeing anything close to advertised mileage. see full Buick Enclave review
2008 4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Hey, at $4.00/gallon getting only 22 mpg hurts. We take the econo-car most of the time. see full Buick Enclave review
2008 4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 It actually gets great mileage for its size and weight, but hey, its not a Prius. see full Buick Enclave review

6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Bad around town see full Buick Enclave review

TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Lexus GS

Lexus GS Real Gas Mileage: Cons
YearComment
In casual suburban driving the trip computer reported between 22 and 23 mpg, splitting the difference between the EPA ratings of 19 city and 26 highway. When I made the engine sing mpg dropped into the high teens. Slip into Eco and drive the GS like a Prius, and 25 is barely doable. Not bad for a 306-horsepower, two-ton, all-wheel-drive sedan. But the torquier Audi A6 3.0T and BMW 535i xDrive do a little better, especially on the highway. The Teuton's turbos help a little here, but most of the blame/credit goes to their respective transmissions. If and when Lexus fits the GS AWD with the eight-speed automatic already offered in the RWD car, it'll likely catch up. see full Lexus GS review

2009 4dr Sedan 303-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 I have been averaging 26 MPG (indicated) in mixed suburban and highway driving, which I think is pretty good. see full Lexus GS review
2008 4dr Sedan 292-horsepower 3.5L V6 Hybrid
6-speed shiftable CVT RWD		 For 340 hp and a 0-60 of 5.2 seconds, I consider an average of 24 in the city and 33 on the highway to be incredible. If you really feather the gas and stick to 65 on the highway you can get around 36-38 mpg. see full Lexus GS review
2007 4dr Sedan 292-horsepower 3.5L V6 Hybrid
6-speed shiftable CVT RWD		 Low consumption in city and stop and go traffic Significant fuel savings in typical German highway driving - plenty of acceleration to and braking from high speeds. The hybrid drivetrain minimises the cost of this compared to conventional petrol power see full Lexus GS review
