TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Buick Regal

Buick Regal Real Gas Mileage: Cons
YearComment
2011 The Buick Regal and Chrysler 200 both weigh substantially more than just about any other front-wheel-drive midsize sedan. Add all-wheel-drive, and both weigh nearly two tons. Curb weight is the enemy of fuel economy. The Buick's turbocharged four-cylinder engine is more efficient than the Chrysler's V6, so it has an edge in the EPA's city test, 19 vs. 18 mpg. But the Chrysler's automatic transmission has three extra gears, for a total of nine, so it has the edge on the EPA's highway test, 29 vs. 27 mpg. The Ford Fusion, though far from light, has an edge over both: 22 mpg city, 31 mpg highway. see full Buick Regal review

For being a turbo 4, I expected slightly better MPG (I average 26mpg mixed with premium). When adding in the Trifecta Performance tune on the car, I average around 29mpg, with the added HP/TQ. What gives, GM? Uncage this beast! see full Buick Regal review

TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Nissan Sentra

Nissan Sentra Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearComment
2014 Aside from some speciality models that cannot be heavily optioned, the Sentra continues to top the rest of its segment in fuel economy, with EPA ratings of 30 mpg city, 39 highway. Well, almost. The new-for-2014 Mazda3 does a bit better with 30/40. Even with its base 1.8-liter engine the Kia Forte doesn't rate nearly as well, 25/36. If you want leather and such you're also getting the 2.0-liter engine, which is rated 24/36. The Sentra's trip computer substantiated its EPA estimates, and then some. On the highway cruising at 65 it reported a two-way average of 47 (up from 40 last year, probably due to warmer temps). In suburban driving the trip computer regularly reported averages of 36 to 37 (up from 32 last year), and on one run to my son's school with a very light foot on the pedals it topped 46. see full Nissan Sentra review

With MPG levels of 26 city/ 28 highway (even though you can go as far as 32 mpg highway and obtain an average of 26 mpg on mixed driving with the occasional engine redlining), the fuel economy of this car is pretty adequate. On stock form it will not drain your wallet, even when Nissan has the ECU tuned in the SE-R and SE-R Spec V to run a bit richer than in the Altima. It's no Prius but it's not as bad as, let's say, a modified Mazda rotary engine. Modifications like cold air intake and header will decrease some MPG but the change isn't too drastic either. see full Nissan Sentra review

This car obtains awful fuel economy in the city. Mine averages about 20 on a good day in stop and go traffic. On the highway, it has gotten as high as 37, but typically hovers around 30-33. Be prepared to visit the pump often, it takes about 12-13 gallons see full Nissan Sentra review
