I recently purchased slightly larger tires and my fuel economy is suffering by 10% compared to stock tires, but I was anticipating this anyway. see full Chevrolet TrailBlazer review

With fuel prices rising I am very pleased with how efficient the car is with gas. If I decide to take it easy and not use my lead foot, I can get gas mileage that rivals any non-hybrid car of its size. see full Acura RSX review

Around town MPG is unimpressive (around 24) given the extreme lack of torque. The engine is especially gutless below 3000 rpm. I do get 30mpg+ on the highway, though. see full Acura RSX review
