What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Infiniti M

Infiniti M Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr Sedan 330-horsepower 3.7L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Fuel economy is abysmal around town. I guess that's the price you pay for going grocery shopping with over 300 HP. However, on the highway it's very possible to exceed the EPA mileage number. see full Infiniti M review
2006	4dr Sedan 335-horsepower 4.5L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	V8 power--it's a gas guzzler and could've used an extra 1 or 2 speeds more since it revs so high at highway speeds. see full Infiniti M review
2006	4dr Sedan 335-horsepower 4.5L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	78,000 miles primarily city driving and rarely use AC-16.9 mpg. 4.5 L V8 great power train with RWD-great fun to drive. see full Infiniti M review

Infiniti M Real Gas Mileage: Cons

2011	4dr Sedan 330-horsepower 3.7L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD	I get average about 22 MPG with 80% of highway driving, this is with baby footing of the car, in town and climbing the hill, the milage can drop to 18-19. see full Infiniti M review

2008	4dr Sedan 275-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	needs a 6th gear, since there is too much revving in 5th gear while cruising. they put a 6th gear in the 2009 version see full Infiniti M review

2007	4dr Sedan 275-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Large cars get poor milage. 18-20 mpg would like an option to trade some performance for added MPG. see full Infiniti M review
2006	4dr Sedan 280-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Often avergaed as low as 16mpg on a tank-full of gas. see full Infiniti M review

2010	2dr Coupe 155-horsepower 2.2L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Around town it's not great, but out on the open road mileage almost doubles. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2009	2dr Coupe turbocharged 260hp 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD	The fuel economy is very good considering the performance available. I typically get better than 25MPG with a fair bit of city driving and fairly heavy throttle. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2009	4dr Sedan turbocharged 260hp 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD	In mixed driving I get 25 - 26 MPG, even with 75 mph stints and popping in and out of traffic. In pure highway, gets 28+ at 70+ see full Chevrolet Cobalt review

2007	2dr Coupe 173-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Under good highway driving conditions the Cobalt can go 700km on a single tank, but even in harsh conditions fuel economy is reasonable. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2007	2dr Coupe 148-horsepower 2.2L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Most neighbors report 35 mpg on hyway. here we do mostly high spped highway. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2007	2dr Coupe 173-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	I like that the 2.4L engine is able to put out significantly more power than the 2.2L and keep the same economy. The SS 2.4L is pretty quick and fun to drive and I still get 28 mpg on average just gunning around town with a lead foot and about 20% high see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2007	2dr Coupe 148-horsepower 2.2L I4 5-speed manual FWD	While not as impressive as some of its competitors, the Cobalt is still good for low to mid 30s if driven properly. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2007	2dr Coupe 148-horsepower 2.2L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	34 MPG observed - and this from a roomy stylish car that cost me less that 15,000 see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2007	2dr Coupe 148-horsepower 2.2L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	While the Cobalt may only get 23mpg in real city driving with a heavy foot, it is still relatively easy to achieve 28mpg in the city and 35+mpg on freeway. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
