30 plus mpg h/w at 65-70 mph for hours on end. see full Volvo V50 review

6-speed manual FWD
30+ on the highway makes this a real touring car. City mileage plummets but typically get 27+ combined. The Turbo gives it lots of acceleration when needed and frugal when you leave the turbo alone. see full Volvo V50 review
Volvo V50 Real Gas Mileage: Cons

2008 4dr Sedan turbocharged 227hp 2.5L I5

Really not that great but part of that is I LOVE to kick in the turbo when getting on the interstate or pulling out from a stop sign. see full Volvo V50 review
2006 4dr Wagon 168-horsepower 2.4L I5
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Keeping those five cyclinders fed burns fuel. On the highway, that's not a problem, but in stop and go traffic, MPG numbers go down and down. see full Volvo V50 review
