It could be better... Why no medium-duty diesel? see full Hummer H3 review

I knew what I was getting into when I bought it. But come on, 14.8mg on the freeway? I would have bought an H2 if I knew that was going to happen. You have to drive like a grandpa to achieve 17mpg. i.e. - under 65 on the freeway. see full Hummer H3 review

30+ on the highway makes this a real touring car. City mileage plummets but typically get 27+ combined. The Turbo gives it lots of acceleration when needed and frugal when you leave the turbo alone. see full Volvo V50 review

Really not that great but part of that is I LOVE to kick in the turbo when getting on the interstate or pulling out from a stop sign. see full Volvo V50 review

Keeping those five cyclinders fed burns fuel. On the highway, that's not a problem, but in stop and go traffic, MPG numbers go down and down. see full Volvo V50 review
