Toyota FJ Cruiser Real Gas Mileage: Pros

2012 4dr SUV 260-horsepower 4.0L V6
5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range
I average 11.5l/100 km almost all the time, about two thirds distance on highway. Uses more petrol than a small car, but reasonable. My previous Audi A3 2.0T could run in circles around an FJ, but it couldn't take me on dirt roads etc. see full Toyota FJ Cruiser review

Any vehicle in this class is by no means a fuel sipper, the FJ averaged between 15 and 19 mpg. In 4wd during winter snowstorms it got about 13mpg. Not bad compared to some, but I grew to dislike this. see full Toyota FJ Cruiser review

Horrendous. Plain and simple. Adding insult to injury, premium fuel is recommended to get top performance. see full Toyota FJ Cruiser review

Gas mileage is not too great. Essentially, it is no better than many larger trucks. Long trip highway mileage averages 19.5 mpg, but in-town driving really pulls it down. My driving is 75% highway, but just that 25% town driving pulls the mileage down to about 17. see full Dodge Dakota review

It's a v8 4x4 truck. The mpg is awful. Not that you would expect different. see full Dodge Dakota review

HORRIBLE. EPA rated for 17city 20hwy but due to transmission problem, I doubt I exceeded 20mpg on most occasions. see full Dodge Dakota review
