2012	4dr Sedan 300-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed automatic FWD	I got 468 miles on a tank of gas from Greenville TN to Charleston SC then to Myrtle Beach. Very impressed see full Chevrolet Impala review
2011	4dr Sedan 211-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	So far so good with E10 Fuel I am getting an average of 27 and I only have 500 miles on it so far. I now have over 3000 miles and just got back from a long trip 1/2 of it hilly. I set the cruise on 67 and let it go averaged over 32mpg by the end of trip see full Chevrolet Impala review
2009	4dr Sedan 211-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	Averaging 25.0 mpg in mixed driving, very good for the size of the vehicle and the the fact that it is a V6. see full Chevrolet Impala review
2008	4dr Sedan 211-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	Fuel Economy beats smaller sized cars, let alone others in the same class. 30mpg is not hard to attain. see full Chevrolet Impala review
2008	4dr Sedan 211-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	Its a full size car that gives good performance and still gets 30 MPG on the highway. see full Chevrolet Impala review
2008	4dr Sedan 211-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	If driven carefully, 22-30 MPG around town and 33-36 MPG highway. If you are a sloppy driver, make that 18-20 and 25 MPG. see full Chevrolet Impala review
2008	4dr Sedan 233-horsepower 3.9L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	Mileage averages 23-24 around town and close to 30 on road trips which is quite good considering engine size and power. see full Chevrolet Impala review

2007	4dr Sedan 233-horsepower 3.9L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	Only get about 25 mpg on interstate with the 3.9 Active fuel management is a gimmick in my opinion and older GM cars with a V6 I have driven have been better with fuel economy than the 3.9. see full Chevrolet Impala review

TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Nissan Murano

Nissan Murano Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Comment
2015	Within today's Nissan, fuel economy seems a far higher priority than performance. The Murano's base engine remains a naturally aspirated, port-injected 3.5-liter V6 good for 265 horsepower. In some applications Nissan's V6 can be thirsty. But in the Murano it's somehow efficient. Much credit is likely due the CVT (continuously variable transmission). Together the pair achieves EPA ratings of 21 mpg city, 28 mpg highway with either drive train--very good for a crossover of this size and power. Ford also offers a naturally-aspirated, port-injected 3.5-liter V6, but rated for 280 horsepower. Paired with a six-speed automatic it manages only 18/26 with front-wheel drive (FWD) and 17/25 with all-wheel drive (AWD)--well short of the Nissan's figures. A new performance engine, a 315-horsepower turbocharged, direct-injected 2.7-liter V6, earns ratings similar to the 3.5's. The new base engine, a 245-horsepower turbocharged, direct-injected, 2.0-liter four-cylinder, does about as well as the Nissan's V6, 20/30 with FWD and 20/28 with AWD. But a four never sounds or feels as a good as a V6, even if it is as strong. If we compare apples to apples, the Nissan scores a clear win on fuel economy. I wasn't able to drive either car on my regular route, so I cannot comment yet on real-world fuel economy. My experiences in other Nissans and Fords suggest that the Nissan's advantage will be larger in typical driving. see full Nissan Murano review

2009	4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT FWD	My average is well above the EPA estimate of 19- mine is closer to 24-25, with combo city and highway driving. Once at a steady speed, the MPGs hover at 27-33 at both 40mph and 75 mph see full Nissan Murano review
2009	4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT FWD	My previous vehicle was a Mazda Tribute which was a smaller SUV by comparison. Exact same type of driving got me about 17 mpg vs 21 mpg w/the Murano. I get better mileage than the EPA lists for the vehicle because I hypermile when I can. see full Nissan Murano review
2009	4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT FWD	Once you are at a steady speed, the MPG climb to above 30mpg easily, whether at 30 MPH or 75MPH. My average mileage is above 24MPG- 5 MPG better than the EPA estimate see full Nissan Murano review
2009	4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT FWD	Once at a constant speed, the MPG hovers between 27-32- much better then the EPA estimates. My average MPG with combined city and highway driving is 24- 5MPG better than the EPA tests. see full Nissan Murano review
2009	4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT FWD	Good on gas, about 24 mpg on the highway. see full Nissan Murano review

2009	4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT FWD	Fuel economy in town has been below 16MPG. It�s not bad, but the lack of economy does not deliver exciting performance as it does with other similarly sized SUV�s that get comparable mileage. see full Nissan Murano review
2007	4dr SUV 245-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT FWD	Excellent. see full Nissan Murano review
2006	4dr SUV 245-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT AWD	For a midsize SUV is very good at 22-23MPG on the HWY. But still is not much, especially at $3.50 per gallon! see full Nissan Murano review
2005	4dr SUV 245-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable CVT AWD	Fuel economy is fine for me. I get 22-24mpg without the trailer, a light gas peddle foot, and under 70mph, But if you accelerate fast and drive fast without reguard to MPG you will easily slip into the 18mpg range. With trailer MPG is 13-15. see full Nissan Murano review
