2007	4dr SUV 260-horsepower 3.0L I6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Better than our 6 cyl Grand Cherokee by far see full BMW X5 review

BMW X5 Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2010	4dr SUV turbocharged 265hp 3.0L I6 Diesel 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	like many other SUV it consume more fuel, but I know the EPA before buying the X5. see full BMW X5 review
2008	4dr SUV 260-horsepower 3.0L I6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	poor compared to diesel see full BMW X5 review
2006	4dr SUV 225-horsepower 3.0L I6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	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
2004	4dr SUV 225-horsepower 3.0L I6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	I get a consistant 16.6mpg. Mostly in town driving. see full BMW X5 review
2003	4dr SUV 282-horsepower 4.4L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	A gas drinker~~~ even considered its engine litre~~~ see full BMW X5 review
2002	4dr SUV 282-horsepower 4.4L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	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
2001	4dr SUV 282-horsepower 4.4L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Horrible mileage. see full BMW X5 review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Chevrolet Cobalt

Chevrolet Cobalt Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2010	2dr Coupe 155-horsepower 2.2L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Around town it's not great, but out on the open road mileage almost doubles. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2009	2dr Coupe turbocharged 260hp 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD	The fuel economy is very good considering the performance available. I typically get better than 25MPG with a fair bit of city driving and fairly heavy throttle. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2009	4dr Sedan turbocharged 260hp 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD	In mixed driving I get 25 - 26 MPG, even with 75 mph stints and popping in and out of traffic. In pure highway, gets 28+ at 70+ see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2008	4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 2.2L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Better than most North American cars. Lower carbon footprint. Cheaper to run. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2007	2dr Coupe 173-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Under good highway driving conditions the Cobalt can go 700km on a single tank, but even in harsh conditions fuel economy is reasonable. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2007	2dr Coupe 148-horsepower 2.2L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Most neighbors report 35 mpg on hyway. here we do mostly high spped highway. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2007	2dr Coupe 173-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	I like that the 2.4L engine is able to put out significantly more power than the 2.2L and keep the same economy. The SS 2.4L is pretty quick and fun to drive and I still get 28 mpg on average just gunning around town with a lead foot and about 20% high see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2007	2dr Coupe 148-horsepower 2.2L I4 5-speed manual FWD	While not as impressive as some of its competitors, the Cobalt is still good for low to mid 30s if driven properly. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2007	2dr Coupe 148-horsepower 2.2L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	34 MPG observed - and this from a roomy stylish car that cost me less that 15,000 see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2007	2dr Coupe 148-horsepower 2.2L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	While the Cobalt may only get 23mpg in real city driving with a heavy foot, it is still relatively easy to achieve 28mpg in the city and 35+mpg on freeway. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review

2010	4dr Sedan 155-horsepower 2.2L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	The best documented rating I could find when looking indicated it still did not rival Fiesta. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
