What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Nissan LEAF

Nissan LEAF Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr Hatch 107-horsepower Electric 1-speed automatic FWD	At my present rate of .088 per kilowat this car has cost 2.2 cents per mile. see full Nissan LEAF review
2012	4dr Hatch 107-horsepower Electric 1-speed automatic FWD	You will NEVER fill up with stinky gas at a gas station again ... you'll only stop at a gas station to use the washroom and get a coffee. However, on the subject of "fuel", it is very efficient with the clean electrons. And the feedback is excellent. You always have access to how well you're driving technique is. Plus, you get more information when you look it up on Nissan's LEAF website of your personal driving efficiency and how you did relative to other LEAF drivers in your country or around the world. When comparing purchase prices or lease payments, you must take into consideration that your electric bill will be ONE-TENTH the price of your gas guzzler's gas bill. That means that your $300 per month gas credit card expense will become a mere $30 on your electric bill. see full Nissan LEAF review
2011	4dr Hatch 107-horsepower Electric 1-speed automatic FWD	Less than $.03/mile for electricity. see full Nissan LEAF review
2011	4dr Hatch 107-horsepower Electric 1-speed automatic FWD	Obviously, Fuel economy is one of the Leaf's strongest features. The car gets amazing milage. The Battery is 24Kw and I pay 10 cents per kilowatt where I live in Texas. This means that it costs about $2.40 to charge it up completely from empty. From empty I can get about 75 miles of normal highway/city mixed driving. My previous car, a Chrysler Sebring Limited convertible got 23 miles per gallon. So it would take me about 3.2 gallons of gas to go 75 miles in my Sebring. At $3.50 per gallon it would cost me $11.41 to go that same 75 miles in my Sebring that only costs me $2.40 in my Leaf. The price of gas would have to be 75 cents per gallon for my sebring just to match cost of the feul to drive the same distance as my Leaf. I doubt we'll ever see that price again. see full Nissan LEAF review

Nissan LEAF Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr Hatch 107-horsepower Electric 1-speed automatic FWD	Fuel Economy is the closest category I found for "Range". Fully charged the LEAF says it will travel 100 miles, and in the right conditions (35 miles per hour with minimal stopping) it probably would go 100 miles. For normal driving, I'd say the range is 75 miles, unless the heater is on, then that could drop to about 50 - 60 miles. My commute to work is short and I wanted this car for local travel, to the grocery store, Costco, etc, and for that purpose it works well. Unfortunately in my town there is only one place that has a charging station and that is the Nissan Dealer. If I travel outside of town, I need to find a charging station or be sure I am within 35 miles from home. When I have to travel to Corporate I have to take one of our Gas Cars, since it is on the outskirts of my 35 mile range. To fully charge the car it takes 3 hours, which limits my destination. see full Nissan LEAF review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Chrysler 300

Chrysler 300 Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr Sedan 292-horsepower 3.6L V6 8-speed shiftable automatic RWD	I average 31Mpg highway, 'nuff said. see full Chrysler 300 review
2012	4dr Sedan 470-horsepower 6.4L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	This car has a 6.4-Liter V8 engine which produces more horsepower and torque than you'd ever need for any passing situation or any driving situation. That is, unless your las t name is "Andretti". The first of the 2nd gen 300 models I drove was the 390HP V8 in the AWD model, followed by the Pentastar V6. see full Chrysler 300 review
2011	4dr Sedan 292-horsepower 3.6L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	I am light footed when it comes to driving and this car with the 3.6 will return very favourable fuel economy when treated as such. This car had 500 km when I purchased it and now has 1800 km and highway mileage is consistently at 7.3 L/100Km. see full Chrysler 300 review
2005	4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	The MDS allows decent fuel economy for the super-quick acceleration and fun to drive factor of a large 8 cylinder engine. see full Chrysler 300 review
2001	4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	For a car going on 13 years it still gets 23 mpg highway and 18 city. see full Chrysler 300 review

Chrysler 300 Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Average 23mpg overall. Temperatures under 30 degrees and the AWD is always on and got 19mpg on the highway. Not bad for a 4400lb car, not good if you pay for gas. see full Chrysler 300 review
2008	4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic RWD	I am not impressed with the fuel economy that my car gets. It only gets 22-24 mpg. The sticker states 26-28. I get that it is a bigger, heavier car, but they need to be more honest and realistic about the mpg. see full Chrysler 300 review
2008	4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic RWD	I get about 20-25% worse fuel economy than EPA specified in the city, although on the highway I do 5-10% better, despite my occasional lack of regard for the posted speed limit. see full Chrysler 300 review
2008	4dr Sedan 178-horsepower 2.7L V6 4-speed automatic RWD	Way lower than what I had expected see full Chrysler 300 review
2007	4dr Sedan 350-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Like any high performance vehicle, too much use of the throttle is--EXPENSIVE! see full Chrysler 300 review
2006	4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	From a social conscious view the 19 MPG AVG is poor, especially with gas costing $4 a gal. But face it, considering the performance you get... I can live with the guilt and high cost of driving. see full Chrysler 300 review
2006	4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Expected fuel economy to be closer to 17 mpg in city driving. see full Chrysler 300 review
2006	4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Are you kidding me? Its a HEMI. see full Chrysler 300 review
2006	4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	city averaging 12-13. highway only averaging 20-21 see full Chrysler 300 review
2005	4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	18 mpg city and 31 mpg highway in Canadian gallons. U.S. would be 0.8 of the value. see full Chrysler 300 review
