Coming from a Trailblazer, we like the average of 21-22 MPG in mixed driving, as were used to about 17 MPG. Fuel economy climbs toward the rated 26 MPG the more highway driving we do. see full Mercury Mariner review

For the first almost three years after we got the car, it gave 21+ mpg in town & 24+ mpg on the road. see full Mercury Mariner review

For an SUV with a 4cyl and 4wd I get avg of 22 MPG mixed city and highway. I usually get 23-26 on freeway only. This is good. see full Mercury Mariner review

For some reason when new Michelin All Terrain tires with Nitrogen air replaced the Champions from the factory, it plummeted to 17 & 20 mpg. No explanation from Michelin, Costco or Ford/Mercury - they have no idea why. see full Mercury Mariner review

I am currently averaging 20 MPG overall with heavy highway use. For the size of vehicle I think that is rather reasonable. see full Ford Flex review

1000 miles of ownership so far, 21-22 mpg in light suburb and highway driving, 24-25 mpg on 500 mile trip (fuel economy measured by calculating miles driven divided by gallons of fuel purchased). see full Ford Flex review

Only driven around town, mileage 16.6, have never had it on the open road. see full Ford Flex review
