16 city/21 highway. Buy it only if you can afford it with out complaining. see full Cadillac STS review
2005 4dr Sedan 320-horsepower 4.6L V8
5-speed shiftable automatic AWD
This car is thirsty. I live in flat country and I get 15 mpg with 80% highway traffic. I only get 19 mpg on trips. It probably needs a 6th speed overdive for the highway. see full Cadillac STS review
 

What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class

Mercedes-Benz S-Class Real Gas Mileage: Pros

2007 4dr Sedan, ext. 382-horsepower 5.5L V8
7-speed shiftable automatic RWD
Since my driving is about 50-50 city and highway, I average about 20-21 mpg, using premium fuel. All highway is 29-30mpg and all city is 14-15mpg. see full Mercedes-Benz S-Class review
2007 0 While on long trips at 70-80mph I average 32mpg around town it never goes better than 24mpg. Easy on the pedal sure shows results but fully loaded the thing shifts like a two door sports. see full Mercedes-Benz S-Class review
