2008	4dr Hatch 143-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic 4WD	For a car with AWD and 143 Horse power and weight, it is good. It is much better than any other crossover out there. If I didnt live in such a hilly area with many lights Iwould probobly get around 27mpg average. on the highway i get 28-29mpg Hilly. see full Suzuki SX4 review
2008	4dr Hatch 143-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual 4WD	Car gets 30+ mpg on the highway depending on how hard I push it. at 70mph it gets 28 and at 50 mph it is well above 32 see full Suzuki SX4 review

2009	4dr Hatch 143-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic 4WD	Currently we are getting about 22mpg, but we have only had the car for a couple of months, and we are both pretty heavy footed. see full Suzuki SX4 review
2009	4dr Hatch 143-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic 4WD	Comparatively low for such a small vehicle: even taking AWD into considetaion. see full Suzuki SX4 review
2009	4dr Hatch 143-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual 4WD	Not good mpg for a small car, but good for AWD car see full Suzuki SX4 review
2008	4dr Hatch 143-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic 4WD	gas mileage suffers in town and 22-24mpg around the city feels hig for a car with a footprint this small see full Suzuki SX4 review
2008	4dr Hatch 143-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic 4WD	It seems that a car built for 2008 should be getting better mpg than this car gets. I would think that 25+ mpg around town and 33+ mpg on the hiway/freeway would be more reasonable. I only get 20-21 and 27-28 respectively. see full Suzuki SX4 review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen

Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2013	4dr Wagon turbocharged 140hp 2.0L I4 Diesel 6-speed automated manual FWD	mid 30s in town about 40 so far on trips expect better as the engine breaks in and we take more freeway trips see full Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen review
2012	4dr Wagon turbocharged 140hp 2.0L I4 Diesel 6-speed automated manual FWD	Excellent with the TDI - not sure the gas version. see full Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen review
2011	4dr Wagon turbocharged 140hp 2.0L I4 Diesel 6-speed automated manual FWD	No need to sacrifice mpg to get that power. Have gotten 50 mpg on highway trips of 40 miles. Averaging 39 mpg at fill-ups. Getting 300 miles to half a tank of gas. see full Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen review
2011	4dr Wagon 170-horsepower 2.5L I5 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	I was hoping for a bit better than the 8+ litres/100 km we are getting with this Sportwagen. I was hoping it would be closer to the 6 l/100 km advertised on the window sticker. see full Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen review
2011	4dr Wagon turbocharged 140hp 2.0L I4 Diesel 6-speed automated manual FWD	Our Sportwagen, automatic, has 17,000 mostly country/suburban miles. We routinely get 43 mpg and the mileage seems to have improved a bit, maybe 2-3 mpg since new. Top mileage is about 47 mph on the interstate, low is about 37 in combined in-town/suburban winter driving. For a car that is fun to drive and responsive at the stop light, this seems very good to me. Right now, diesel is at a premium compared to gas, but we still are saving money on fuel. Mileage on other brands of small wagons was much lower for the same utility. A friend with a new, 2013 Subaru wagon got 30 mpg on a long trip and was happy, but nothing like the TDI delivers. see full Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen review

2009	4dr Wagon turbocharged 140hp 2.0L I4 Diesel 6-speed automated manual FWD	With 32k Miles on the odo, the mileage keeps improving. I think the engine will be fully broken in at about 50k see full Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen review
2009	4dr Wagon turbocharged 140hp 2.0L I4 Diesel 6-speed automated manual FWD	The TDI is a great contender in the fuel economy range. I do alot of driving and it would have presented great savings to me if I was able to located one when I needed to purchase a car. see full Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen review
2009	4dr Wagon turbocharged 140hp 2.0L I4 Diesel 6-speed manual FWD	I was getting around 50 mpg on steady state freeway driving. But the performance was far from economy car- Way better! Can imagine what is possible when the car gets broke in. Excellent all around. see full Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen review

2011	4dr Wagon 170-horsepower 2.5L I5 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The Sportwagen's fuel economy is exactly what you'd expect from a fairly substantial compact wagon and a 2.5 litre gas engine, not the magically impossible gas mileage posted on the window sticker at the dealership! see full Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen review
