Hyundai Elantra Touring Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr Wagon 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	While its not a hybrid, when you move from a gas-guzzling minivan to the Touring, it feels like you are no longer owned by the oil companies. see full Hyundai Elantra Touring review
2012	4dr Wagon 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	I was somewhat disappointed by the fuel economy of this car. You are not going to see the 40 mpg numbers like the standard elantra. I drive in the city and get 25-30mpg on average. Typical highway mileage is pretty good though - I got between 35-37 mpg. see full Hyundai Elantra Touring review
2011	4dr Wagon 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD	The fuel economy of the car has been exactly as advertised, unlike the new Elantra design. The Elantra Touring has consistently recorded 27 mpg in city driving and 33+ mpg in highway driving. see full Hyundai Elantra Touring review

2009	4dr Wagon 141-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Excellent highway economy, topping 40MPG (downhill, with a tailwind, mostly coasting - but it is still possible!) see full Hyundai Elantra Touring review

TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Mercedes-Benz GL

Mercedes-Benz GL Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Comment
2013	In the EPA's fuel economy tests the Mercedes-Benz GL350 BlueTEC rates 19 mpg city and 26 mpg highway. We observed low 20s in casual suburban driving (a few mpg lower with a heavy foot, a few mpg higher with a very light one) and 25.5 on our trip to Chicago and back (which included some heavy urban driving and 70-mph highways). These numbers don't seem so great, given that the GL350 burns diesel? Consider that the GL-Class is not only wide and tall but also very heavy, at nearly 5,500 pounds unloaded. The gas-powered GL450 is rated 14/19. Our family vehicle, a Ford Taurus X that weighs over 1,000 pounds less than the Mercedes, struggles to crack 22 on the highway. The Audi Q7 rates the same in city driving, and a couple mpg better on the highway. Since the GL350 is almost in another class size-wise, I'm calling this one a draw. Multiply this fuel economy by a 26.4-gallon tank, and the GL350 can go quite far between $100+ fill-ups. Is it really possible to drive the nearly 300 miles to Chicago--and then back--on one tank? Yes it is, with nearly a quarter-tank to spare. (Is it possible to do this without any of three kids needing to stop for a bathroom break? To our even greater surprise, yes to this as well. They were busy watching the $1,950 dual-screen entertainment system.) see full Mercedes-Benz GL review
