2012 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Average 28mpg over the past 6000 miles of mixed driving. Hit 36 mpg in about 200 highways miles this weekend. see full Acura TSX review
2012 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Besides price, this was my primary reason for choosing the TSX over the TL. I don't have a lead foot but average about 25-27 mpg overall. On the freeway I'm easily over 30mpg and can run 500 miles on a tank of gas. see full Acura TSX review
2010 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Surprisingly good fuel economy. Averaging around 27 mpg even with mixed driving conditions and a lead foot more often than not. Beats the EPA estimates easily especially in highway driving where 32+ MPG is possible. see full Acura TSX review

Honda Accord equivalent and a lot more fun to drive. see full Acura TSX review
2010 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
6-speed manual FWD
With 100% highway miles, expect about 30 mpg. I have averaged about 24-25 mpg over 5 tanks in about 50/50 city/highway. see full Acura TSX review

2009 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4

Average fuel economy has been around 28mpg in the city and up to 37mpg on the high, according to the trip computer. see full Acura TSX review

Better milage than my VW Golf 1.8! Golf is a smaller car, less powerful (great ride though!). Fuel economy with the TSX almost certainly better...given the highway miles I put on. see full Acura TSX review

While easy driving, the car runs at very low REVs. see full Acura TSX review

Fuel economy for mixed city and highway is not very good for my driving style: between 20 and 23 mpg. I don't drive with the pedal down! see full Acura TSX review

the fact you "should" use premium gas makes it expensive to run as a 4 cylinder car see full Acura TSX review

With my admittedly brick-like right foot, I'm lucky to get 24 MPG in mixed driving, which isn't stellar for a 6MT four-cylinder. (With California premium gas, no less.) see full Acura TSX review
 

TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Lexus LS

Lexus LS Real Gas Mileage: Cons
YearComment
Nearly everyone except Toyota has been transitioning to boosted engines for fuel efficiency at least as much as for performance. While boosted engines swill gas at least as well as their unboosted equivalents when hustled, in typical driving they are more efficient. With EPA ratings of 16 mpg city, 23 mpg highway, the LS 460 nearly matches the Jaguar XJ AWD (16/24), but falls well short of the Audi A8 3.0T (18/28) and BMW 740Li xDrive (19/28). In the real world, the Lexus's fuel economy lags the others, including the Jaguar, to an even greater degree. In our suburban driving the LS 460's trip computer often reported averages between 15 and 16, vs. low 20s in the Jaguar. A light foot could nudge the LS's average to 18, but the XJ's to 25. On the highway the LS 460's trip computer reported averages of 24.7 and 23.3. The XJ's reported just over 30. see full Lexus LS review
