GMC Yukon Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2001 4dr SUV 320-horsepower 6.0L V8
4-speed automatic AWD
Overall 14.2 MPG. In town 14 MPG, on the interstate 18 MPG @ 65 mph, 16 MPG @ 75-80 mph. Would probably have better mileage with more gears than the 4 speed auto but overall a pretty efficient powertrain considering power and weight. see full GMC Yukon review

It does 13.8 - always has from new. GM lies about 17 - not possible. You can dive this with a lead-foot or as gently as you like. Empty or loaded. Makes no odds - 13.8 mpg !! see full GMC Yukon review

I'd love to have better mileage; but, I also want cargo capacity and comfort. That's the tradeoff. The newer Traverse has a 9-speed transmission that no doubt helps it get a few more miles per gallon but it also has auto stop/start (which I'm not fond of). Mileage on the trip to and from New Jersey was right at 24 MPG--when I remember my last Chevy (IROC-Z28 with L-98 engine) I realize that was the same mileage I got from a car that had little utility. see full Chevrolet Traverse review

Fuel economy literally sucks!! I guess it's the price you pay for driving a big vehicle with all-wheel drive. I also own a new GMC 4x4 quad cab truck with a 6 liter engine. My truck gets better fuel economy than my 3.6 liter Traverse. Maybe I just got stuck with a lemon. I'm told that fuel economy is supposed to get better once the engine gets more km's on it. I doubt it will improve very much at all to notice any savings at the pump. see full Chevrolet Traverse review
