Hyundai Equus Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Comment
	The downside of the Equus's big, naturally aspirated V8 is that it uses more gas than the smaller engines in competing cars. In the EPA's tests, the Equus rates 15 mpg city, 23 highway. The Lexus does a bit better, 16/24, while the Audi A8 4.0T manages 16/26 despite the additional mass and drag of all-wheel-drive. Audi and BMW now also offer their large luxury sedans with boosted V6 engines that are plenty quick yet much more economical (19/29 for the BMW 740Li, 18/28 for the all-wheel-drive Audi A8L). The best of them all: the 24/36 diesel-powered Audi A8 3.0 TDI. With the Equus, a big V8 is the only available engine. see full Hyundai Equus review
