2007 4dr Wagon 203-horsepower 3.0L V6

Very hard to beat in a 7-passenger vehicle of this size. With AWD, I average about 22mpg in mixed driving and have gotten 25mpg on an extended trip at hwy (70-75mph) speeds. see full Ford Freestyle review

Superior to anything in its class for freeway MPG. Only turns over 1900 RPM @ 70 mph, 27+ MPG depending on conditions. Mixed fuel economy is not bad either, my wife drives 50/50 city/highway and we average just over 21 mpg. Very satisfied with MPG. see full Ford Freestyle review

For a car its size, 24+ mpg is pretty amazing. This can be contributed to the CVT transmission. see full Ford Freestyle review

with a 3.0 V6, 2WD gas mileage could be much better than 19, to 23 MPG, it was in the 2000 Olds Sil, which was longer and had alarger motor in it. see full Ford Freestyle review

TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Lexus LS

Lexus LS Real Gas Mileage: Cons
YearComment
Nearly everyone except Toyota has been transitioning to boosted engines for fuel efficiency at least as much as for performance. While boosted engines swill gas at least as well as their unboosted equivalents when hustled, in typical driving they are more efficient. With EPA ratings of 16 mpg city, 23 mpg highway, the LS 460 nearly matches the Jaguar XJ AWD (16/24), but falls well short of the Audi A8 3.0T (18/28) and BMW 740Li xDrive (19/28). In the real world, the Lexus's fuel economy lags the others, including the Jaguar, to an even greater degree. In our suburban driving the LS 460's trip computer often reported averages between 15 and 16, vs. low 20s in the Jaguar. A light foot could nudge the LS's average to 18, but the XJ's to 25. On the highway the LS 460's trip computer reported averages of 24.7 and 23.3. The XJ's reported just over 30. see full Lexus LS review
