Kia Sorento Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2013	0	I average about 22-25 miles/gallon, but only if I use a fuel addative every 5,000 miles. If not I get at best about 21miles/gallon. see full Kia Sorento review
2012	4dr SUV 276-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Average fuel economy at 22.5 MPG is lower than expected but still not bad. see full Kia Sorento review
2011	4dr SUV 175-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed manual FWD	For a rather large crossover the fuel economy is absolutely amazing, check it out, it speaks for itself, and in the frist month we are getting exactly the rated efficiency, very pleased. see full Kia Sorento review
2011	4dr SUV 175-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	30% better than my previous vehicle see full Kia Sorento review
2011	4dr SUV 276-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Always want more MPG but it is at least 25% better than my 2006 Ford Explorer. After 15K miles of highway, city and occasionally pulling a 5'x10' trailer, I'm averaging exactly 20.9 MPG. see full Kia Sorento review
2011	4dr SUV 175-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	I average 22 mpg in mosty city driving. Not bad for its size and weight. see full Kia Sorento review
2007	4dr SUV 262-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	For a bulky and powerful SUV, it achieves a greater gas mileage than expected. see full Kia Sorento review

Kia Sorento Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr SUV 276-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Horrible fuel especially in stop and go traffic. I drive approximately 30 miles per day and within a week the take is nearly empty. see full Kia Sorento review
2012	4dr SUV 276-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	I expected the fuel economy to be somewhat better than 22.5 MPG. see full Kia Sorento review
2011	4dr SUV 175-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	my commute is very short and I am averaging 16mpg despite the 'eco'light being on, which sucks see full Kia Sorento review
2011	4dr SUV 175-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	About 20 to 25% less than EPA estimates see full Kia Sorento review
2011	4dr SUV 175-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The window sticker said it would get 29 mpg on the highway. I did a 500 mile trip and averaged 25 mpg. On my last 5 vehicles I averaged 2 to 3 mpg more than the window sticker when on the highway. Something is wrong with this picture. see full Kia Sorento review
2008	4dr SUV turbocharged 168hp 2.5L I4 Diesel 5-speed shiftable automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	Not been brave enough to calculate fuel economy yet, but my Audi A6 1.9tdi used to return 33mpg whilst towing. I doubt the Sorento will get near that even solo! see full Kia Sorento review
2005	4dr SUV 192-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	Getting 14-15 MPG out of a V6. Wish it were closer to 20 MPG. see full Kia Sorento review
2005	4dr SUV 192-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic RWD	Put simply "It sucks" see full Kia Sorento review
2005	4dr SUV 192-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	Not great but we knew that going in. I try to drive as economically as possible and can usually squeeze 18-19 mpg in mixed driving (70%/30% split between highway and local). see full Kia Sorento review
2003	4dr SUV 192-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic AWD w/low range	15MPG - not good see full Kia Sorento review

Hyundai Accent Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2014	4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Gas mileage has never been as advertised, even with all highway driving. We avg more like 34 highway, 26 city. see full Hyundai Accent review
2010	2dr Hatch 110-horsepower 1.6L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Better than my previous car (1981, 240 Volvo). see full Hyundai Accent review
2010	2dr Hatch 110-horsepower 1.6L I4 5-speed manual FWD	You get close to Hybrid-like mpg without the added cost of a hybrid. One of the highest mileage subcompact cars sold in America today. Drinks regular gas. see full Hyundai Accent review
2009	2dr Hatch 110-horsepower 1.6L I4 5-speed manual FWD	GREAT IN TOWN AND HIGHWAY see full Hyundai Accent review
2008	2dr Hatch 110-horsepower 1.6L I4 5-speed manual FWD	I average about 30 miles per gallon city/highway... about 27 mpg just city and over 36 mpg just highway. see full Hyundai Accent review
2008	2dr Hatch 110-horsepower 1.6L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Lot better than my expidition see full Hyundai Accent review
2007	2dr Hatch 110-horsepower 1.6L I4 5-speed manual FWD	On my first long trip (Tucson to Guadalajara) I obtained 36.9 miles per gallon with air conditioning on. It was a three day trip and included some city driving although most was on high speed (70 mph plus) toll roads in Mexico. see full Hyundai Accent review
2006	4dr Sedan turbocharged 109hp 1.5L I4 Diesel 5-speed manual FWD	Directly related to driving style, of course. 3.9L/100km achieved with smoothest driving prior to chiptuning and 4.5L/100km after - determined based on 800-900 km drives between refuelling. see full Hyundai Accent review
2005	2dr Hatch 104-horsepower 1.6L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Over 30 mpg with a lead foot. see full Hyundai Accent review
2004	2dr Hatch 104-horsepower 1.6L I4 5-speed manual FWD	it gets over 30mpg without even trying, mix of city and highway see full Hyundai Accent review

Hyundai Accent Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2014	0	MPG is the worst thing about this car. Lucky to get 30 mpg on flat roads without A/C running. My 10 year old Malibu got about 26 mpg and was a much heavier car with a more powerful engine. see full Hyundai Accent review
2010	4dr Sedan 110-horsepower 1.6L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Seems to average 8L or less all seasons for city driving, typically Highway mountain driving at 90km/h you can easily average 5 L Per 100km as you go faster it consumes more gas. Pretty standard with any vehicle. see full Hyundai Accent review
