Ford Fusion Real Gas Mileage: Pros

2015	4dr Sedan 141-horsepower 2.0L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	42.3 mpg since new. 85% highway, 10% suburban, 5% city. A/C always on, careful but not "multimiler" driving. see full Ford Fusion review
2013	4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	I have close to 3000 miles on this car and the last 2 gas fill ups have been 22.6 mpg which is slightly higher then the EPA city rating. Being that it is still winter & all my driving so far has been city driving I am very satisfied with the gas mileage. see full Ford Fusion review
2012	4dr Sedan 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	I generaly get 23-24 miles per gallon in town and 29-34 miles per gallon on the interstate. That beats all other cars I have owned..probably more that 20. see full Ford Fusion review
2011	4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	Over 40 MPG in the city. see full Ford Fusion review

2010	4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	The Fusion Hybrid when driven as outlined in the owner�s manual rewards you with the best in class fuel economy which is far above the advertized mileage for the car. The car has great power which is on par with the V6 version of the same car. I now have see full Ford Fusion review
2009	4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed automatic FWD	I average a respectable 23+ miles per gallon in the city. 30+ on the highway. see full Ford Fusion review
2008	4dr Sedan 221-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed automatic FWD	Originally thought it was great on fuel, after owning it is still respectable but not as good as I thought it would be. I end up doing more city driving than highway though. see full Ford Fusion review

2013	4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	18.5mpg, vs 22mpg rated city driving. Not disatisfied. Really like the car, so don't care. see full Ford Fusion review
2011	4dr Sedan 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	My primary complaint with the vehicle as a whole definitely comes down to fuel economy. I've owned several other vehicles that should generally be less economical that actually are almost the same. My primary example is one of my previous cars, a supercharged 1996 Buick Park Avenue. Overall average fuel economy with that Buick was about 20, with 70% city driving. Overall fuel economy with my V6 3.0 Fusion is...about 20 with the same driving conditions. Its to be noted that car's posted fuel economy figures for highway driving aren't really attainable. 240 HP in a midsize car isn't bad...but I sometimes wish I'd gotten the 4 cylinder. see full Ford Fusion review
2010	4dr Sedan 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	17mpg city driving. see full Ford Fusion review
2009	4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	The non-hybrid four is pushing a lot of weight, so its city mileage suffers. see full Ford Fusion review
2008	4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed automatic FWD	The city fuel economy is lower than advertised (11.4l/100km with average speed of 32kmh). see full Ford Fusion review
2007	4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Fuel economy is OK, this is an error see full Ford Fusion review
2007	4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed automatic FWD	It does not lead the pack, in fact ford needs to fix the pack of power and having higher than average fuel consumption. see full Ford Fusion review
2007	4dr Sedan 221-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed automatic AWD	Poor with AWD see full Ford Fusion review

TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Cadillac CTS

Cadillac CTS Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Comment
	With the 2011 528i, BMW pioneered the use of a turbocharged four-cylinder engine in a $60,000 midsize sedan on this side of the Atlantic. The point: fuel economy, specifically EPA ratings of 22 mpg city and 33 mpg highway even with all-wheel-drive (24/34 with RWD). Audi followed with an A6 2.0T good for 20/29 (25/33 with FWD) a year later. The new CTS takes the path blazed by the Germans, but much less effectively. Though the Cadillac weighs significantly less than the Audi or the BMW, its EPA ratings are lower, 19/28 (20/30 with RWD). The same is the case with the two 3.6-liter V6 engine options, even though unlike the turbo four they can be paired with an eight-speed (instead of a six-speed) automatic. The rear-drive-only Vsport barely evades the gas guzzler tax with ratings of 16/24. Even the 445-horsepower turbocharged 4.4-liter V8 in the BMW 550i does a bit better. In my real-world driving, the CTS's trip computer confirmed this shortcoming. Even considering that the outside temperature was near zero, post-warm-up averages that clustered around 18 were disappointing. Only by driving the car with a light foot could I nudge the suburban average over 20, and even then not much over. A 320-horsepower 3.0-liter 640i Grand Coupe tested a week earlier in similar conditions did at least one mpg better than the 272-horsepower, 2.0-liter Cadillac. And when I tested a 528i xDrive in slightly warmer temps it often managed 25 mpg (in an EcoPro Mode the Cadillac lacks). In one trip this BMW even touched 30. see full Cadillac CTS review
