Hyundai Genesis Coupe Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2013	2dr Coupe turbocharged 274hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual RWD	I average around 26 mpg in mixed driving, with a moderately heavy right foot. On a long, flat roadtrip I averaged ~32 mpg with speeds ranging from ~70-80 mph. Even in city driving and stop-and-go traffic I rarely dip below 20 for a trip. see full Hyundai Genesis Coupe review
2010	2dr Coupe turbocharged 210hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual RWD	Very good, better than a Rx-8, not as good as a Civic Si. see full Hyundai Genesis Coupe review

Hyundai Genesis Coupe Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	2dr Coupe turbocharged 210hp 2.0L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	For a 3400 pound car the fuel economy is really pretty good considering I have a turbo which I keep spinning up. The EPA numbers did not enter into my choice, however the manufacturer advertises 20 - 30 mpg which is a bit of a fantasy. A rating of 19 - 27 would be reasonable and kept a lot of people from complaining on the forums. I have personally seen 28 / 29 mpg on the highway so the 30 mpg is possible, but not practical. For a heavy turbo-charged RWD car my mileage is pretty good; just not what was advertised. see full Hyundai Genesis Coupe review
2011	2dr Coupe turbocharged 210hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual RWD	For a 4 cylinder cat the MPG is not what I expected. see full Hyundai Genesis Coupe review
2010	2dr Coupe 306-horsepower 3.8L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Highway fuel economy is decent for a large V6, but city fuel economy, especially in winter, struggles to break 13mpg. see full Hyundai Genesis Coupe review

2010	2dr Coupe turbocharged 210hp 2.0L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Fuel Economy is my ONLY dislike of the Genesis Coupe. I was excepting less gas consumption especially in city driving. see full Hyundai Genesis Coupe review

2009	4dr Sedan 415-horsepower 6.2L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Low teens in town, and 24mpg tops on the highway make this a less than ideal economy car. see full Pontiac G8 review
2009	4dr Sedan 256-horsepower 3.6L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	The most MPGs I ever had was 25 and that was all highway driving at about 70. see full Pontiac G8 review
2009	4dr Sedan 361-horsepower 6.0L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Not bad mileage figures given the size of the car and the beast of an engine, but this is not a car for the hybrid set. see full Pontiac G8 review
2009	4dr Sedan 361-horsepower 6.0L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Is very low in stop-and-go traffic. Gets better with time, I understand. see full Pontiac G8 review
