Chevrolet Trax Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearComment
2015 The Chevrolet Trax isn't quite the segment's fuel economy champ--that honor goes to the new Honda HR-V--but it's close. EPA ratings are 26 mpg city and 34 mpg highway with front-wheel drive (FWD), and 24/31 with all-wheel drive (AWD). With a CVT instead of a conventional automatic, and with a 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine rather than a turbocharged 1.4-liter, the Honda manages 28/35 and 27/32, respectively. You can get an engine as small as the Trax's in the Jeep and FIAT, but only paired with a manual transmission (not offered in the Trax). Even with this engine the Jeep's EPA ratings are 24/31 (though with either drivetrain, and so more competitive with AWD). A nine-speed automatic is only available with a non-turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine. The additional, taller ratios balance out the larger engine size, for EPA ratings of 22/31 with FWD and 21/29 with AWD. The FIAT 500X fares a little better with the same powertrains. EPA ratings are 25/34 with the 1.4T and manual transmission (not offered with AWD). With the 2.4 and nine-speed automatic transmission the 500X's EPA ratings are 22/31 with FWD and 21/30 with AWD. In my real-world driving, the Trax's trip computer regularly reported numbers much better than its EPA ratings: between 30 and 40 mpg in the suburbs (and most often 36-37), and just over 40 mpg on the highway. It's not hard to see how the Trax's fuel economy can excel in highway driving. Cruising in sixth gear, the small four spins only 2,000 rpm at 60 mph. I observed the best fuel economy numbers with very leisurely acceleration and braking. Push the Trax hard, and the tiny turbo will force as much fuel and air into the cylinders as it can, severely impacting fuel economy in the process. If you want to get impressive mpg averages out of a turbocharged engine, the turbo is been seen as something to be used only when quick acceleration is really needed, not when pulling away from every traffic light. see full Chevrolet Trax review

2012 4dr SUV turbocharged 225hp 3.0L V6 Diesel

Diesel makes the extra weight of an SUV tolerable. In 4 months of use I've been getting high teens around town and 29 cruising on the highway at 70-75. Slowing down to 60-65 puts mpg just over 30. see full Volkswagen Touareg review

Like any diesel, it is always above EPA rating. No complaints at all. see full Volkswagen Touareg review

GREAT Economy. It is a game to see how high I can get up to. Last evening in a 40 minute local drive 31 mpg see full Volkswagen Touareg review

2009 4dr SUV 280-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range
I do not have a heavy foot and the V6 gas version gets only about 19-21 on HWY at 60 MPH opposed to 24-27 with a X5. I drove 700 mi (interstate) and averaged only 19 @ 70 mph. Not good! see full Volkswagen Touareg review
2008 4dr SUV 350-horsepower 4.2L V8

Very poor. The V6 gets barely 18 and the V8 gets 17mpg of PREMIUM. But then again you buys knowing, still disappointing. see full Volkswagen Touareg review
2006 4dr SUV 310-horsepower 4.2L V8

This car gets 14.7 city and 17.5 HWY. On Premium Fuel. But we pay the price for the speed, comfort, and security of the Touareg. see full Volkswagen Touareg review

14-16 mpg light loads around town; 6-9 when towing. see full Volkswagen Touareg review

14-15 mpg in todays market is not very good for an SUV with a V6. see full Volkswagen Touareg review
