Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2013	4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 2.0L H4 5-speed manual AWD	Wow, this is what I said after 2 days with the vehicle, winter driving, and its cold winter here. I averaged 7.6 l/100km, mixed city and highway driving, at -20 celsius, through snow most time of these 2 days. Very impressive for awd vehicle! see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2013	4dr Hatch 148-horsepower 2.0L H4 6-speed shiftable CVT AWD	It takes a while for the engine & drivetrain to break in, but when they do you will start to see some very impressive numbers on the ODO. I'm at ~2600 miles right now and averaging 29-30 mpg between 50% open freeway cruising, 25% freeway traffic, 25% city driving. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2012	4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 2.0L H4 6-speed shiftable CVT AWD	Oustanding fuel economy for a all wheel drive...the highest mpg all wheel drive of any manufacturer. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review

2004	4dr Wagon turbocharged 227hp 2.0L H4 5-speed manual AWD	I have gotten 28mpg on the highway, which makes it perfect for road trips. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2004	4dr Wagon 165-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed automatic AWD	I get 23-26mpg around town, 28-30 highway, which I consider very very good for an AWD car. I get same fuel economy as many non AWD cars. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2004	4dr Sedan 165-horsepower 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD	28+ MPG, nothing to complain about. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review

Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr Hatch 148-horsepower 2.0L H4 CVT AWD	The fuel economy isn't as high expected. I get about 28 mpg. I should probably stop driving like I stole it when the kids are out of the car. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2010	4dr Sedan turbocharged 265hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD	Not really dislike, I didnt expect civic like mpg. Around town mileage suffers, but on the highways the car cruises quite easily. You can expect ~25mpg on average combined (with no led food). Impressive for the hp and AWD. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2010	4dr Hatch 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD	Really crappy, especially for a 2.5L 4 cylinder engine. 22 MPG average. 18 city, 27 highway is what I got. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2009	4dr Hatch 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD	low fuel economy because of AWD components see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review

2008	4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed automatic AWD	Pathetic for a compact sedan at <28 mpg highway. The AWD system must be a huge fuel sink. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2008	4dr Hatch 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD	For such a small car with NA 170hp engine the economy is rather poor ~24mpg. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2007	4dr Wagon turbocharged 224hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD	For a car of that size, the fuel economy is dismal. I get about 19 in the city, which is where most of my driving is done. That is marginally better than any SUV. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review

TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Mitsubishi Lancer

Mitsubishi Lancer Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Comment
	Mitsubishi did improve the powertrain's EPA ratings a few years ago. But they're still only 22 mpg city, 31 highway. Even the portly Dart GT manages 23/33 with a manual transmission. Credit a sixth ratio the Lancer lacks. In my suburban driving, the trip computer regularly reported averages in the high 20s. Other compacts have done better in the same driving, but not by as wide a margin as the EPA numbers would suggest. see full Mitsubishi Lancer review
