Toyota Matrix Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	4dr Hatch 132-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	should be good see full Toyota Matrix review
2006	4dr Hatch 118-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic AWD	We purchased our Matrix NEW June of 2006, we now (21 Dec 2012) have 82,000 miles and I have monitored the mileage since we purchased the car. We get 24 in city driving and the VERY best we've got on a long freeway drive was 30mpg. Overall our mileage for the 80,000 miles is 27 which isn't great but is acceptable. see full Toyota Matrix review
2005	4dr Hatch 130-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Front WD w/ 4sp auto, great highway mileage, but not near the advertised ratings see full Toyota Matrix review
2004	4dr Hatch 130-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Have never gotten less than 28 MPG, even when driving hard and in mountains. Usually get between 30 and 31 in the rolling country where I live. Have gotten over 34. see full Toyota Matrix review

2004	4dr Hatch 130-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Great fuel economy for a 1.8L with 30 MPG on the highway and a 500km range. see full Toyota Matrix review
2004	4dr Hatch 130-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	With K&N air intake, we got 34mpg on freeway, and it adds 5hp to 10hp when you need to pass other cars. see full Toyota Matrix review
2004	4dr Hatch 130-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Very good 28 city 33 highway see full Toyota Matrix review
2003	4dr Hatch 130-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Haul 600# of sports cargo during trips. Car does 36 mpg if speed <=60 mph, 33 mpg <=70, 30 mpg under 80 and 28 under 90 mph. see full Toyota Matrix review

Toyota Matrix Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	4dr Hatch 132-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	good, but should be much better see full Toyota Matrix review
2008	4dr Hatch 126-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD	It only gets about 25mpg in a mixed cycle. Fit would get 28mpg or better in same driving. see full Toyota Matrix review
2007	4dr Hatch 126-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	expected the famous corolla frugality and efficiency - it has the same powertrain. we were totally disappointed. below freezing point, fuel consumption was scary: 17-20 l/100km. the best mileage we got was only 10 l/100 km. see full Toyota Matrix review
2005	4dr Hatch 130-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Not even close to what is advertised see full Toyota Matrix review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Saturn Outlook

Saturn Outlook Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	4dr SUV 288-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Too Early to judge (625 miles on her). Initially, 1st tank 15.6 mpg. I am attributing the low mpg due to the honeymoon of a new vehicle and sitting idling for extended times while figuring out how everything works (and showing features to others). see full Saturn Outlook review
2008	4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The sticker said 24. I get an honest 24 and 25 on hyw ( I drive at speed limits) MILAGE AROUND TOWN IS 17 PLUS see full Saturn Outlook review
2008	4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	I get between 22 and 24 on the highway and 18 to 19 around town. see full Saturn Outlook review
2008	4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	For highway driving -- which our primary [90%?] use of this vehicle -- I get 22-24 mpg. For an AWD with the capacity of this vehicle, that is a very competitive mph. see full Saturn Outlook review
2007	4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	For the size of vehicle fuel economy is more than expected. see full Saturn Outlook review
2007	4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Good balance between towing capacity and fuel economy. For a rather large vehicle I think 21-22 on hwy is pretty good, and 12-14 towing the boat. Most of my driving is highway commute, but it seems as though shorts trips around town the mpg is lower. see full Saturn Outlook review
2007	4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	zzGood for a 8 person suv see full Saturn Outlook review

Saturn Outlook Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Still too new to tell, so far only 13+ mpg in town.(only 2600+ mi so far) I live in hilly country so 19+ hwy is still acceptable. I have seen 21+ Hwy see full Saturn Outlook review
2007	4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	well, i guess its just that with the prices of gas the economy would have been ok, 2 years ago, but not today.. i actually dont do as much after work these days cause of it see full Saturn Outlook review
2007	4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	I was used to the Saturn Vue which got between 22 - 25 miles per gallon. Now my Outlook is getting less than 15 in the city. It will take a little getting used to, but we decided to sacrifice fuel economy for a roomier vehicle. see full Saturn Outlook review
2007	4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	mpg is ok for a crossover SUV but with gas prices of today vehicles need to get much better gas mileage. see full Saturn Outlook review
2007	4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Fuel economy was not as high as that of the Sienna, and in addition, many of the estimates seemed too high and were not supported by actual user feedback/comments found on Internet site reviews see full Saturn Outlook review
