Hyundai Veloster Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2015	3dr Hatch 132-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	The Base model Veloster gets decently good fuel economy, thanks to the DCT. 27 City, 34 Highway is the adjusted EPA estimate, but I have achieved almost 42 MPG before on an economy cruise, just by driving with great care towards economy (but not hypermiling). see full Hyundai Veloster review
2013	3dr Hatch 132-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	I get on average 33mpg with mostly tollway driving at about 70mph or higher. see full Hyundai Veloster review
2013	3dr Hatch turbocharged 201hp 1.6L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	What ? All this fun to drive with all this speed and power ...and if I drive it easy I get 34mpg on the hwy ! see full Hyundai Veloster review
2012	3dr Hatch 138-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	Consistently get more than 30mpg, and have gotten 40+ mpg at times. Digital display lets me know what my fuel economy is and number of miles until I run out of gas. see full Hyundai Veloster review

Nissan Quest Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2014	4dr Minivan, ext. 260-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT FWD	I was hoping for slightly better fuel economy, but for a 4500 lbs vehicle, I really shouldn't be complaining. In predominantly hilly suburban driving, I'm averaging a couple miles below the estimated city fuel economy number. On 100% hilly highway miles, I'm right about at or maybe 1 mpg above the estimated fuel economy. It would be nice to acheive better highway mpg, but I suppose that's the trade-off for having a torquey engine. You would think the CVT would improve things, and maybe in fact it is helping the poor fuel economy of the aging VQ engine design, but I also think the CVT transmission is a cost-cutting measure by Nissan. It would be nicer to have one of the 7 speed transmissions found in the Infiniti lineup. see full Nissan Quest review
2007	4dr Minivan, ext. 235-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	It is great for going on long trips see full Nissan Quest review
2006	4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	Rated best in class 3.5L Engine see full Nissan Quest review

Nissan Quest Real Gas Mileage: Cons

2014	4dr Minivan, ext. 260-horsepower 3.5L V6 CVT FWD	Could be better, but then the van would have less power. Pick your poison. see full Nissan Quest review

2008	4dr Minivan, ext. 235-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	All vans have pitiful fuel economy. The Quest is about average for the class. see full Nissan Quest review
2008	4dr Minivan, ext. 235-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	Averaging ~20mpg. I wish any minivan could get 25+mpg fuel economy. see full Nissan Quest review
2004	4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	Averages 17 mpg, never more than 23 Hwy. see full Nissan Quest review
