What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class

Mercedes-Benz S-Class Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 4dr Sedan, ext. 382-horsepower 5.5L V8
7-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 Since my driving is about 50-50 city and highway, I average about 20-21 mpg, using premium fuel. All highway is 29-30mpg and all city is 14-15mpg. see full Mercedes-Benz S-Class review
2007 0 While on long trips at 70-80mph I average 32mpg around town it never goes better than 24mpg. Easy on the pedal sure shows results but fully loaded the thing shifts like a two door sports. see full Mercedes-Benz S-Class review
Mercedes-Benz S-Class Real Gas Mileage: Cons

7-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 Driving it in a lot of stop and go traffic it drinks gas. see full Mercedes-Benz S-Class review
2007 0 Fuel cost are a killer and servicing requires finding an allternative to the Mercedes Garage see full Mercedes-Benz S-Class review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Buick Rainier

Buick Rainier Real Gas Mileage: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2005 4dr SUV 300-horsepower 5.3L V8
4-speed automatic AWD		 12 mpg see full Buick Rainier review
2004 4dr SUV 290-horsepower 5.3L V8
4-speed automatic AWD		 An AWD V8 body on frame SUV/truck like the Rainier will be a gas pig. Mid to high teens are all you should expect. The benefit of poor gas mileage is strong towing performance. see full Buick Rainier review
