TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Chevrolet Malibu

Chevrolet Malibu Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Comment
	The EPA rates the Malibu turbo 21 mpg city, 30 highway, below the Fusion 2.0T's 22/33 and the Sonata 2.0T's 22/34. The V6s in the Accord and Altima also do better?so much for the inherent fuel economy advantage of a turbocharged four over a V6. The trip computer confirmed the EPA ratings, with a little over 30 in straight 75 mph highway driving and anywhere from 19 to 27 in the suburbs depending on the frequency of reds and the heaviness of my right foot. Go with the traffic flow, and you'll split the difference at about 23. see full Chevrolet Malibu review

Chevrolet Malibu Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2014	4dr Sedan 196-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	We are seeing beteer fuel economy over our 2009 Malibu w/2.5L 4-cyl engine. Just turned 5,000 miles & have gotten just under 34 MPG on hwy & 28 MPG around town. I expect this to improve, especially the hwy MPG. see full Chevrolet Malibu review
2013	4dr Sedan 182-horsepower 2.4L I4 Hybrid 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	So far the dash display average is fluctuating between 37 and 40 mpg with mixed interstate (65%)/suburban (35%), "light accelerator foot," speed limit driving; at least 40% better than my prior V6 Toyota Solara. see full Chevrolet Malibu review
2012	4dr Sedan 169-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Wanted something fairly roomy, but cheap to run. It has filled the bill in that respect. see full Chevrolet Malibu review
2011	4dr Sedan 169-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Good overall. Highway mpg can be 30-32 mpg. In city driving (stop and go) with short trips more like 18-19 mpg. see full Chevrolet Malibu review
2010	4dr Sedan 169-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	2.4 liter 4 gets 30+ on the highway. see full Chevrolet Malibu review
2010	4dr Sedan 252-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	My fuel economy has been better than the EPA ratings. Having said that I don't drive the car hard. see full Chevrolet Malibu review
2009	4dr Sedan 169-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Outstanding highway fuel economy. City fuel economy could be better but my driving is limited to fairly short distances with mostly stop and go. see full Chevrolet Malibu review
2009	4dr Sedan 169-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Very good, 21 in fixed driving, up to 33 on the highway. see full Chevrolet Malibu review
2009	4dr Sedan 169-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	I drive 50 miles each way to work and the highway mileage is excellent see full Chevrolet Malibu review

2011	4dr Sedan 252-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	V6 is 5 mpg less than 4 cyl. The 4 cylinder has sufficient power but the V6 is more responsive. see full Chevrolet Malibu review

2006	4dr Hatch 201-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	To get something close in horsepower, you need a 6 cylinder and the inherently lower fuel economy that comes with that vs. a 4 cyl. see full Chevrolet Malibu review

Ford Edge Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr SUV 285-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The V6 gets good fuel economy. I have had the Edge for 13 months and have a overall average of 22 mpg. I am able to obtain the 27 mpg on the highway at 70 mph, more than that it does start to drop. Does not need premium gasoline. see full Ford Edge review
2008	4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed automatic FWD	Decent economy considering size of vehicle and weight. see full Ford Edge review
2008	4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed automatic FWD	Better than a V8 Aviator see full Ford Edge review
2007	4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed automatic FWD	Considering this is an SUV/Crossover... the gas mileage is really good. I am a fast driver who tests the limits of my vehicle and I still average 18 mpg in the city and have had up to 25-26 mpg during long road trips (If I keep my lead foot in check). see full Ford Edge review
2007	4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed automatic FWD	Very good considering it;s size see full Ford Edge review

2008	4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed automatic AWD	It is only average overall. A hybrid or better still a hydrogen fuel cell version would be better. see full Ford Edge review
2007	4dr SUV 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed automatic AWD	Can be low in stop and go traffic, does well on highways up to 70mph, drops off a bit quickly after that see full Ford Edge review
