TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Volkswagen Beetle

Volkswagen Beetle Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Comment
2013	How much difference can a diesel make? The EPA rates the Beetle Convertible's 170-horsepower 2.5-liter gas engine for 21 mpg city, 27 mpg highway. The 140-horsepower (but torqier) 2.0-liter TDI? A much more fuel efficient 28/37. In both cases the lighter hatchback scores a little better. TDI fans claim that the EPA underestimates diesel fuel economy, and they might have a point. While the 2.5's trip computer reported averages in the mid-to-high 20s in suburban driving, the TDI's reported averages in the 40s, even just over 50 with a feather-light right foot and few complete stops. On a 70-mph highway the trip computer reported a two-way average of 38. At lower speeds the TDI should exceed the EPA rating. The Mini and Fiat are considerably smaller, lighter, and less powerful, but with somewhat overwhelmed gas engines they can't match the Beetle's fuel economy (27/35 and 27/34, respectively). Note that diesel fuel tends to cost a little more than regular unleaded, and far fewer stations carry it. see full Volkswagen Beetle review

Volkswagen Beetle Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	2dr Hatch turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	I have the Beetle for just one month, so can�t say too much yet, but after 500 Km mostly highway driving (from whicharound 100 Km on mountanous roads), it was showing an average of 13.1 Km/ltr. Not bad at all. When i drive into the city, it averages more or less 8.0 Km/ltr. I�m not a racer, but also not a slow driver. see full Volkswagen Beetle review
2002	2dr Hatch turbocharged 90hp 1.9L I4 Diesel 5-speed manual FWD	A real-world 50+ miles per gallon. This is achieved by going 55 MPH or thereabouts, and on limited-access hiways. In-town mileage of course is worse. see full Volkswagen Beetle review

2007	2dr Convertible 150-horsepower 2.5L I5 5-speed manual FWD	NOT an economy car. Fun to drive, but not for the tight pocketbook. see full Volkswagen Beetle review
2004	2dr Convertible 115-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Less than 25 mpg. see full Volkswagen Beetle review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Hyundai Azera

Hyundai Azera Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	30 mpg on the highway under cruise control. 21 mpg overall in the city. see full Hyundai Azera review
2008	4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Variable valve powertrain delivers very good city mileage (16 mile trips per day @ 22mpg) and above expectation highway (425 mile trip at 32mpg). Highway is usually above 30 even in slow interstate traffic in the city. see full Hyundai Azera review

Hyundai Azera Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The gas mileage is respectable but lower than most cars in the large sedan class. see full Hyundai Azera review
2007	4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Poor mileage. see full Hyundai Azera review
2006	4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	While stellar fuel economy can't be expected in a 3600 Lb car with a 3.8L V6, it does leave something to be desired, averaging somewhere between 15-17MPG in a mix of city and highway driving. Pure city driving returns closer to 13-15 MPG (although the peppy engine may have something to do with that). The car would really benefit from a 6th gear. see full Hyundai Azera review
2006	4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	short distance driving exhibits just fair fuel economy see full Hyundai Azera review
