2008	4dr Wagon 150-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	For a 4 cyl engine it really show get a little better MPG. see full Chrysler PT Cruiser review
2007	2dr Convertible turbocharged 180hp 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	It averages around 15 in town and no better than 20 highway. This is way behind the curve of other more modern small cars. see full Chrysler PT Cruiser review
2006	2dr Convertible turbocharged 230hp 2.4L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	One would expect to get much better mileage from a car this size, however 17 city/23 highway is what I actually get. see full Chrysler PT Cruiser review
2006	4dr Wagon 150-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	This thing had a 4 cylinder but sucked fuel like a big V-6 or larger. Is this the result of cinder-block like aerodynamics? see full Chrysler PT Cruiser review
2005	4dr Wagon 150-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Manual transmission with standard 4 cylender engine averages 25 mpg. Power is just adequate. see full Chrysler PT Cruiser review
2004	4dr Wagon 150-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Poorer than I expected, not much better than my Porsche! see full Chrysler PT Cruiser review
2003	4dr Wagon 150-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Poor highway fuel economy, compared to Vibe. Poor city fuel economy, compared to Vibe. see full Chrysler PT Cruiser review

2002	4dr Wagon 150-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	19 MPG on average is just pathetic for a four-cylinder. see full Chrysler PT Cruiser review

Chrysler 300 Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr Sedan 292-horsepower 3.6L V6 8-speed shiftable automatic RWD	I average 31Mpg highway, 'nuff said. see full Chrysler 300 review
2012	4dr Sedan 470-horsepower 6.4L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	This car has a 6.4-Liter V8 engine which produces more horsepower and torque than you'd ever need for any passing situation or any driving situation. That is, unless your las t name is "Andretti". The first of the 2nd gen 300 models I drove was the 390HP V8 in the AWD model, followed by the Pentastar V6. see full Chrysler 300 review
2011	4dr Sedan 292-horsepower 3.6L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	I am light footed when it comes to driving and this car with the 3.6 will return very favourable fuel economy when treated as such. This car had 500 km when I purchased it and now has 1800 km and highway mileage is consistently at 7.3 L/100Km. see full Chrysler 300 review
2005	4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	The MDS allows decent fuel economy for the super-quick acceleration and fun to drive factor of a large 8 cylinder engine. see full Chrysler 300 review
2001	4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	For a car going on 13 years it still gets 23 mpg highway and 18 city. see full Chrysler 300 review

Chrysler 300 Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Average 23mpg overall. Temperatures under 30 degrees and the AWD is always on and got 19mpg on the highway. Not bad for a 4400lb car, not good if you pay for gas. see full Chrysler 300 review
2008	4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic RWD	I am not impressed with the fuel economy that my car gets. It only gets 22-24 mpg. The sticker states 26-28. I get that it is a bigger, heavier car, but they need to be more honest and realistic about the mpg. see full Chrysler 300 review
2008	4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic RWD	I get about 20-25% worse fuel economy than EPA specified in the city, although on the highway I do 5-10% better, despite my occasional lack of regard for the posted speed limit. see full Chrysler 300 review
2008	4dr Sedan 178-horsepower 2.7L V6 4-speed automatic RWD	Way lower than what I had expected see full Chrysler 300 review
2007	4dr Sedan 350-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Like any high performance vehicle, too much use of the throttle is--EXPENSIVE! see full Chrysler 300 review
2006	4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	From a social conscious view the 19 MPG AVG is poor, especially with gas costing $4 a gal. But face it, considering the performance you get... I can live with the guilt and high cost of driving. see full Chrysler 300 review
2006	4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Expected fuel economy to be closer to 17 mpg in city driving. see full Chrysler 300 review
2006	4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Are you kidding me? Its a HEMI. see full Chrysler 300 review
2006	4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	city averaging 12-13. highway only averaging 20-21 see full Chrysler 300 review
2005	4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	18 mpg city and 31 mpg highway in Canadian gallons. U.S. would be 0.8 of the value. see full Chrysler 300 review
