Mercedes-Benz CLA Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Comment
2014	The German luxury car manufacturers have been achieving some shockingly good fuel economy figures in the last few years. To these we can add the CLA250's EPA ratings of 26 mpg city and 38 mpg highway. To do better in a car with 208-horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, you need a hybrid or a diesel. Mercedes-Benz's own C250, with a less powerful engine, manages only 22/31. As does the Acura TSX. Among likely competitors, the 180-horsepower BMW 320i comes closest to matching the CLA, with 24/36. see full Mercedes-Benz CLA review

2003	2dr Coupe 130-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Very good. When I drive it in my mostly rural neighborhood, I get 25-27 MPG when not in winter. I know my son has done better on long trips. see full Ford Escort / ZX2 review
