What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Chrysler Town & Country

Chrysler Town & Country Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr Minivan, ext. 283-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Fuel economy averages around 20 mpg for us, which is mostly mixed driving. Not bad for such a large vehicle, that has impressive power. The highway mileage is impressive. In good weather, with the cruise set on 70, it gets about 30 mpg. Really impressive for such a big vehicle. Of course different terrain and weather conditions can affect that a lot. Winter highway mileage, more like 24 mpg. Overall I am impressed with the combination of power and fuel economy. see full Chrysler Town & Country review
2009	4dr Minivan, ext. 197-horsepower 3.8L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Many of our trips, we average between 23 and 25 MPH. Its not bad for four to six people plus a dog and luggage. We could not fit all our stuff into two of most vehicles. see full Chrysler Town & Country review
2007	4dr Minivan, ext. 180-horsepower 3.3L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	It gets 24 to 25 MPG at 70+ on the freeway and near 20 in short trip and city driving. Very good mileage for a 7 pass van. see full Chrysler Town & Country review
2007	4dr Minivan, ext. 200-horsepower 3.8L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	there is nothing wrong with this car great fuel economy even when towing no major issues as long as you keep up with regular maintenance see full Chrysler Town & Country review
2006	4dr Minivan 180-horsepower 3.3L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	Very poor, only 13 to 14 mpg city. see full Chrysler Town & Country review

2010	4dr Minivan, ext. 197-horsepower 3.8L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	WOW all I can say is on the highway I am lucky to see 18 mpg when we did the calculations and checked it five times we come to an avrage of about 13 mpg see full Chrysler Town & Country review
2008	4dr Minivan, ext. 251-horsepower 4.0L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	2008 4.0 liter had good acceleration bu poorer fuel economy than Sienna see full Chrysler Town & Country review
2008	4dr Minivan, ext. 251-horsepower 4.0L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	1) Mileage is what the EPA sticker states. However, thought I would be able to get better than stated in real life conditions. see full Chrysler Town & Country review
2008	4dr Minivan, ext. 197-horsepower 3.8L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	I get less fuel economy than 2006 model I had. It is a heavier vehicle and not as aerodynamic. Without the 6 speed it might be less. 16 city 22 highway. see full Chrysler Town & Country review
2007	4dr Minivan, ext. 200-horsepower 3.8L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	would like to get 20+ city and 27 - 30+ country see full Chrysler Town & Country review
2003	4dr Minivan, ext. 215-horsepower 3.8L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	Very poor fuel economy when it comes to city driving. Highway driving fuel economy is acceptable for 2003 model vehicles of this type. see full Chrysler Town & Country review

Nissan Maxima Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2010	4dr Sedan 290-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable CVT FWD	16-17 in the city. 25-26 on the freeway. Not bad than other comparable cars. see full Nissan Maxima review
2009	4dr Sedan 290-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable CVT FWD	It is between 25-29.2 on the highway depending on headwinds. It seems sensitive to wind, mileage-wise. In town is excellent. In 4k miles the worst tank has been 23.2 when it was brand new and very cold out. City mileage is understated in my opinion. see full Nissan Maxima review
2003	4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed manual FWD	I get between 26-27mpg. see full Nissan Maxima review
2003	4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	Fuel economy is great for a 250+ horsepower automatic see full Nissan Maxima review
2003	4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed manual FWD	it averages about 20 mpg consistently see full Nissan Maxima review
2002	4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed manual FWD	For a large car with a relatively large engine, this engine is mirror smooth which helps it get great highway mileage. see full Nissan Maxima review
2002	4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed manual FWD	I consistently get 25 in the city, and 33-34 all highway. Excellent fuel economy for any car, let alone one with a 3.5L V6. see full Nissan Maxima review

Nissan Maxima Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr Sedan 290-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable CVT FWD	Not as good as advertised see full Nissan Maxima review
2010	4dr Sedan 290-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable CVT FWD	Depends on a lot on your right foot. Driven like a Prius, 26 MPG city and 33 MPG highway. Driven normally with occasionally throttle bursts, 27 MPG highway, 21 MPG combined. The CVT ratio spread maxes out at 2200 RPM at 75; a little high for MPG. see full Nissan Maxima review
2009	4dr Sedan 290-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable CVT FWD	City driving is brutal on mpg. If you get 12 mpg you are doing well. Highway miles are great - over 30, so great on trips, stinks for commuting. see full Nissan Maxima review
2008	4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable CVT FWD	Not as good in town as expected. Get around 20-22 mpg in town, 25-28 on hi-way see full Nissan Maxima review
2006	4dr Sedan 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	24MPG on the HWY. Come on...Crown Victoria is almost 30 has a V8 and gets 29 MPG on the HWY. see full Nissan Maxima review
2002	4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed manual FWD	This car loves to suck gas especially when pushed. And not just any gas, the high compression VQ35DE engine requires premium. In my experiences anything less than 91 octane will yield poor performance and odd engine noises. I average 17-18 mpg at best. see full Nissan Maxima review
