2007	4dr SUV 248-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD	I drive 33 miles one way to work 5 days a week.

Saturn VUE Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
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 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	15 / 22 city and highway best I can do see full Saturn VUE review
2006	4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	Excellent Performance. Poor fuel economy even though it has the Honda powertrain 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
2005	4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	average 18 mpg over 38,000 see full Saturn VUE review

TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Audi A8 / S8

Audi A8 / S8 Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Comment
2013	Fuel economy might seem an odd, "why to buy" for such a large, powerful car. But this large powerful car manages EPA ratings of 18 mpg city, 28 mpg highway, each one mpg better than the superceded V8. In suburban driving the trip computer typically reported averages in the low 20s, but as high as 25.5. We're a long way from large luxury sedans that had trouble cracking 18. The BMW is rated a bit higher, 19/28, but this is close enough to call it a draw. If you want even better fuel economy, Audi how also offers a 240-horsepower diesel with EPA ratings of 24/36. But the TDI is only available with the long wheelbase and will also cost you another $3,700. BMW offers no comparable car on this side of the Atlantic. see full Audi A8 / S8 review

Audi A8 / S8 Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2004	4dr Sedan, ext. 330-horsepower 4.2L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	The Audi A8L is an interesting car if bought used. As it is a premium model, it is often bought on lease or by rich people. It is also all aluminium - when sold they are usually in great condition. The fuel economy is good for its size - about 12 miles a gallon city and 22 highway. For an 8 cylinder, all wheel drive performance car this is not bad. However high gas prices make it nota very economic choice for the gas version. With the introduction of the diesel version means used vehicles will come onto th eused market in about three years (2106). Fuel consumption will be better. see full Audi A8 / S8 review
