TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Buick Verano

Buick Verano Real Gas Mileage: Cons
YearComment
A lot of weight and enough power to move it don't make for class-leading fuel economy. So it should come as no surprise that the Verano's EPA ratings, 21 mpg city and 30 highway, trail those of some V6-powered midsize sedans. The ILX 2.4 does just a single mpg better, though. The benchmark for quick compact sedans is currently set by the BMW 3-Series, with ratings of 23/33. In my suburban driving the trip computer typically reported low 20s. A highway stretch netted only 27. With a light foot I could also manage 27 in the suburbs. But if you're not going to use the turbo, why pay for it? see full Buick Verano review

2013 4dr Sedan turbocharged 250hp 2.0L I4

I did see 39 mpg on a tankful of gas just commuting on the highway 118 miles at 60 mph. It great fuel economy and it is what I expect from turbo-4 these days. see full Buick Verano review

We previously owned a Cruze LTZ with the 1.4L Turbo and the Verano's 2.4L was by far the winner on fuel mileage. We got 700km out ouf a tank of fuel with an average speed of 110 km's see full Buick Verano review

Fuel economy is respectable on the Turbo engine (for a high-performance engine). I was disappointed in the unimpressive fuel economy with the base 2.4L engine. see full Buick Verano review

Approximately 30 mpg highway and good mileage around town, too. Even with the premium fuel requirement the ES is still not very expensive to keep fueled. see full Lexus ES review

For such a large & powerful car, fuel economy is quite good. Driving a ~100 mile/day round trip commute in bumper-to-bumper traffic, I get 24-28 mpg. see full Lexus ES review

With the high price of gasoline, any six-cylinder vehicle can be considered more than necessary for a daily commute. Still, averages of 22.5 MPG are not too bad. see full Lexus ES review
