2008 Saab 9-3 Pros and Cons Member5464 Very good considering the power. I average 32mpg doing mostly highway. I cruise at 75mph and like to rev the engine in the city. |

2008 Saab 9-3 Pros and Cons Member4409 Better than 30 mpg on long trips, even with 75+mph average speeds as reported by the onboard computer. Fantastic given the performance available. |

2007 Saab 9-3 Pros and Cons Member3648 25 to 30 mpg on regular gas, depending on how many highway miles per tank. This is my first car that takes regular in more than ten years, at least $0.20 a gallon cheaper than premium. |

Car is approaching 10 years old and still runs very well 2006 Saab 9-3 Love Letter AcuraT For a car with pretty good performance, it has very good acceleration (a little faster or as fast as the V6 Honda), and gets 22-24 city, 32-36 highway. |

2004 Saab 9-3 Pros and Cons Member1810 1. Its less than my old car. 2. The average figure I actually achieve are less than quoted on the manual! Unlike other cars that quote unachievable values. 3. On a highway the petrol version consumes just 1L more than the diesel |
