like many other SUV it consume more fuel, but I know the EPA before buying the X5. see full BMW X5 review

The 3.0L i6 is rather underpowered, and it's hard for me to squeeze even 22 mpg out of my X5. Most of the time, I get close to 20. Most V8 X5s from this generation get 16-18 mpg. see full BMW X5 review

It gets about 16 mpg in town and about 19-20 on the highway. For the amount of performance I should not complain but I would love a SUV that got about 30 see full BMW X5 review

Fuel economy is very good for vehicle this size. Ecotec is great on the highway. 3.6 Alloytec V6 with 6-speed is also surprisingly fuel frugal. see full Saturn AURA review

The Aura XR has an EPA rating of 18/26 (give or take). We consistently average 20+ in town and for 252hp, it averaged a respectable 28.5 - 30.3npg on a recent 18hr road trip. Did I mention we were fully loaded (4 humans and a full trunk)! see full Saturn AURA review

Its six cylinder engine could not realistically be compared with a four. I really wanted to consider the Aura GL, and had had a request in to a dealer to let me know when they got one in. I never received a response to the call. see full Saturn AURA review
