It is nowhere as close to 4 cylinders or hybrids, but given it is a V6 with decent power it puts out very good highway mileage. I took it to Vegas and got 30.2 mpg. Average in the city range from 21 to 26, depending how much city driving you have. see full Acura CL review

Very good. When I drive it in my mostly rural neighborhood, I get 25-27 MPG when not in winter. I know my son has done better on long trips. see full Ford Escort / ZX2 review
