2007	4dr Hatch 127-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	In general for the size of the car and the way I drive, I feel like I get lower gas mileage, 20-23 MPG on average, than I expected, however, it is rated for 18-28 MPG. see full Suzuki Forenza / Reno review
2006	4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD	It can get up to 31 mpg on highway-only driving. On the mostly short, in-town driving i do, it gets a disappointing 22 mpg. see full Suzuki Forenza / Reno review
