With the SOHC engine and MT,heavy AC,I get 35-38 MPG cruising at about 70MPH 10% ethanol gas.Gas without ethanol gives about 10% better fuel economy but is not available in most places near me.It makes no sense to add 10% ETOH if mpg drops 10% see full Saturn S-Series review

The car gets good mileage, close to 35 mpg on the highway. I need to replace the intake manifold gasket - that will probably increase the mileage by a few. see full Saturn S-Series review
