2009 4dr SUV 169-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 The XE 4 cylinder appears to get good gas mileage, we are hoping to attain the published mpg. see full Saturn VUE review
2008 4dr SUV 169-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 With only 1000 miles I am averaging over 24 MPG with a mix of 60% HWY/40% Suburban driving. see full Saturn VUE review
2008 4dr SUV 172-horsepower 2.4L I4 Hybrid
4-speed automatic FWD		 The book says 26/33 for mileage. Wife gets significantly less in town. I can get 24 to 25. On 1000 mile trip, I got 33, when car was less than 1 year old. Wife gets 20 in town, with short stop and go drive to work. see full Saturn VUE review
2008 4dr SUV 257-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed automatic AWD		 So far fuel economy is not as good as I expected, the car is still pretty new (<5 000 miles). see full Saturn VUE review

4-speed automatic FWD		 Excellent fuel economy for an SUV. see full Saturn VUE review
2007 4dr SUV 248-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic FWD		 248 willing horsepower and 20/28 rated mpg that is delivered. see full Saturn VUE review
2007 4dr SUV 248-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD		 I drive 33 miles one way to work 5 days a week. I can make to work and back 4 times before I have to fill up again and that includes running around town. I only had to put fuel in it once on my trip to North Carolina in August of 08. see full Saturn VUE review

Saturn VUE Real Gas Mileage: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2008 4dr SUV 169-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 Could be better, but being a former Ion owner I recognize that the break in process is a bit long and economy may improve over time. Would be nice if it got better fuel economy from the beginning and improved from that point. see full Saturn VUE review
2008 4dr SUV 257-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 I wish the fuel economy was better but I knew what the fuel consumption rating was prior to purchasing the vehicle. It is a large engine (3.6 L) and for its size, a rather heavy vehicle. That weight, however, does add to the safety of the vehicle. see full Saturn VUE review
2008 4dr SUV 257-horsepower 3.6L V6

5-speed automatic AWD		 Not as good miles per gallon as we expected. Around 21 mpg highway. see full Saturn VUE review
2006 4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic FWD		 On a good day, I get 19-20 in the city. It does better on the highway, upwards of 24-33. see full Saturn VUE review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Acura TSX

Acura TSX Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Average 28mpg over the past 6000 miles of mixed driving. Hit 36 mpg in about 200 highways miles this weekend. see full Acura TSX review
2012 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Besides price, this was my primary reason for choosing the TSX over the TL. I don't have a lead foot but average about 25-27 mpg overall. On the freeway I'm easily over 30mpg and can run 500 miles on a tank of gas. see full Acura TSX review
2010 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Surprisingly good fuel economy. Averaging around 27 mpg even with mixed driving conditions and a lead foot more often than not. Beats the EPA estimates easily especially in highway driving where 32+ MPG is possible. see full Acura TSX review
2010 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
6-speed manual FWD		 Honda Accord equivalent and a lot more fun to drive. see full Acura TSX review
2010 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
6-speed manual FWD		 With 100% highway miles, expect about 30 mpg. I have averaged about 24-25 mpg over 5 tanks in about 50/50 city/highway. see full Acura TSX review

6-speed manual FWD		 Wonderful...............better than manufacturer quoted. see full Acura TSX review
2009 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Average fuel economy has been around 28mpg in the city and up to 37mpg on the high, according to the trip computer. see full Acura TSX review
2009 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 32 mpg highway consistantly see full Acura TSX review
2009 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Better milage than my VW Golf 1.8! Golf is a smaller car, less powerful (great ride though!). Fuel economy with the TSX almost certainly better...given the highway miles I put on. see full Acura TSX review
2007 4dr Sedan 205-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 While easy driving, the car runs at very low REVs. see full Acura TSX review

2011 4dr Wagon 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Fuel economy for mixed city and highway is not very good for my driving style: between 20 and 23 mpg. I don't drive with the pedal down! see full Acura TSX review
2004 4dr Sedan 200-horsepower 2.4L I4
6-speed manual FWD		 the fact you "should" use premium gas makes it expensive to run as a 4 cylinder car see full Acura TSX review
2004 4dr Sedan 200-horsepower 2.4L I4
6-speed manual FWD		 With my admittedly brick-like right foot, I'm lucky to get 24 MPG in mixed driving, which isn't stellar for a 6MT four-cylinder. (With California premium gas, no less.) see full Acura TSX review
