2011	4dr SUT 320-horsepower 5.3L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic 4WD	what fuel economy? bought it to pull a Brenderup horse trailer (3300lbs including 1 horse) that can be pulled with a 4cyl car in europe.... doing 22l/100km on flat roads with light foot. more than double combined rating ....GM unresponsive! see full Chevrolet Avalanche review
2007	4dr SUT 320-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic RWD	14MPG in the city sucks. see full Chevrolet Avalanche review
2007	4dr SUT 320-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic 4WD w/low range	It only averages around 14 to 15 in a mostly city driving environment. Was hoping the V4 mode would kick in more often to help improve the economy. see full Chevrolet Avalanche review

Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2013	2dr Coupe turbocharged 211hp 2.0L I4 8-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Mileage seems to have leveled out at about 27 mpg with a 60/40 mix of highway and suburban driving. On longer trips, it has been as high as 30 mpg while driving a steady 75 mph. see full Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 review
2010	2dr Coupe turbocharged 211hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual AWD	Averaging 9L/100KM, without feeling too conservative. see full Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 review

Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	2dr Coupe 354-horsepower 4.2L V8 6-speed manual AWD	I knew what gas mileage the S5 got long before I stepped onto the dealer lot. Still, I get 24 mpg on a full highway run. see full Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 review
2009	2dr Coupe turbocharged 170hp 2.0L I4 Diesel 6-speed manual AWD	Fuel economy is fair when going for a long ride, the car is AWD and heavy. I did however expect a somewhat lower fuel consumption when driving short-distance. see full Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 review
2008	2dr Coupe 354-horsepower 4.2L V8 6-speed manual AWD	It is not great, and if you have fun with the car, you will get less than 15MPG see full Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 review
2008	2dr Coupe 354-horsepower 4.2L V8 6-speed manual AWD	drinks too fast when driving is more aggressive see full Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 review
2008	2dr Coupe 354-horsepower 4.2L V8 6-speed manual AWD	Thirsty V8 coupled with a car that was born to be driven hard equals mid-teen MPG in mostly non-highway driving. see full Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 review
