What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Honda CR-V

Honda CR-V Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2015	4dr SUV 185-horsepower 2.4L I4 CVT AWD	The fuel economy is nearly as good as advertised - I have been averaging about 30 MPG in a combination of stop & go suburban driving, rush hour traffic, and highway cruising. see full Honda CR-V review
2013	4dr SUV 185-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD	Mixed city, and short (5-6 miles on freeway) commute averaging 23-24 mpg. Long road trip including some hills ~30-31 mpg. Does appear to get even higher (32 mpg?) on flat freeways around 60-70 mph. see full Honda CR-V review
2012	4dr SUV 185-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD	Had two months and drove 2950 miles. We averaged 29.9 mpg with about 70% being highway miles. Local miles are about 27mpg with between 30-34 on the highways at 70mph. These are actual miles via filling up although the onboard computer is very close see full Honda CR-V review

Honda CR-V Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2010	4dr SUV 180-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD	I guess I wish I was getting at least 30 mpg with fuel prices so high and future prices will be even higher. see full Honda CR-V review
2009	4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD	mediocre fuel economy for what is basically an AWD car. see full Honda CR-V review
2009	4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD	just bad. on the drive Ottawa-Montreal, never got better than 14 l/100 km, during fall months (no aircon). i know that winter make it eat up to 20 l/100 km (my mom drives crv). see full Honda CR-V review
2006	4dr SUV 156-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD	It only gets about 1 or 2 MPG less than a Pilot, which disappointed me. I would have went with a Pilot had I known the mileage would be SO close. see full Honda CR-V review
2003	4dr SUV 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Worse economy than I expected and a smaller fuel tank too. see full Honda CR-V review
2002	4dr SUV 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD	for a 4 cylinder poor miliage per gallon. see full Honda CR-V review
2002	4dr SUV 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual AWD	I have gotten up to 32 MPG and usually get around 26 to 28. Nice. see full Honda CR-V review
2002	4dr SUV 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD	23 mpg has been the best to date. That is tolerable when gas is less than $2.50, it will not feel so good when it goes above $3 see full Honda CR-V review

2014	4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The Mazda5 doesn't get great milage. But it's better than other minivans and most CUVs. Of the alternatives I shopped, the Mazda was the most frugal on gas. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2010	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Impressive considering all this vehicle can do (carry six, or a bunch of stuff). Driven with some restraint (60-65), I can average 30+ mpg on my weekly commute. With a microvan that can seat six. see full Mazda Mazda5 review

2009	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Better than our previous mini-van, mostly because of size. We drive it harder, so some of that advantage is lost :) see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2009	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	reasonable gas mileage for a car that can hold 6. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2008	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Avg under 10L/100km one of buying criteria. good on hwy and not as bad as full sized van in city. Good for long summer road trips. see full Mazda Mazda5 review

2014	4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	If only. If only Skyactiv came out during the 5's redesign. While gas usage is better than the competition, it's far worse than it could be. Just popping in Mazda's latest engine and tranmission combo would surely give several more mpg. Just a 10% improvement would make me happier. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2007	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	It uses twice as much fuel as a Prius. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006	4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	vehicle is heavy for its size so the fuel economy is not that great. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006	4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	My 4 speed automatic yields about 10.5 L/100 km on 50/50 highway and city driving with a conscious effort to stick to the speed limit and driving as if I had an egg under my right foot. Eh, I thought it would AT LEAST be under 10. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
