2019 Hyundai Veloster N Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh As might be expected with an engine usually employed in pedestrian sedans and crossovers, the Veloster N gets good fuel economy for a high-performance car. In EPA testing it managed 22 mpg in the city cycle and 28 mpg (29 mpg for 2020) in the highway cycle. This ties the... Comparison vehicle: 2019 Volkswagen Jetta |
2014 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member5753 Stellar vehicle all around. Fuel economy is amazing, have gotten as low as 4.9L/100km with 110 km/hr highway driving and one driver and one passenger. Loaded, it still comes under 5.5. (I am not a heavy footed driver but do cruise at posted highway speeds plus a bit. Comfortable all... |

2014 Chevrolet Cruze Diesel Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh It might seem obvious that the primary reason for buying the Cruze Diesel would be fuel economy. But this comes with a caveat. The Cruze Diesel gets outstanding fuel economy in highway driving, with a 46 mpg score in the EPA's test. On a drive from Detroit to...

Great car for long commute 2012 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member5961 I drive 80 miles a day, 70/30 highway/city. I average 39 mpg per tank driving at an average 75 mph on highway. My normal range before I fill up is about 530 miles according to the trip computer, and there is still more than an 8th of tank left. |

2014 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member5917 I am averaging 39mpg with mixed driving. It would be higher but it is a fun car and it is difficult to maintain discipline for an entire tank of fuel. 500 miles is a long way to drive conservative lol. My economy keeps rising as the engine... |

First two weeks with a TDI 2013 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons A member in New York, United States With the TDI, I'm easily getting 45+ on the highway. The in-car MPG is a few MPG over actuals. Drove 600 miles in my first tank of gas. Even with a bike rack with three bikes on the back of my car (lots of extra drag), I was getting 40... |

2013 Honda Civic Si Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh Eith EPA ratings of 22 mpg city and 31 mpg highway--on premium fuel--the Civic Si's fuel economy lags that in many larger cars that are at least as powerful. Much of the blame goes to the short gearing. A manual transmission Jetta GLI, with a turbo but taller gearing, manages... Comparison vehicle: 2012 Volkswagen Jetta |
2013 Volkswagen Jetta Hybrid Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh Volkswagen's hybrid approach is nothing like Toyota's, and not much like Honda's, either. There's no CVT transmission. And no Atkinson cycle engine where the intake valves remain open longer (good for efficiency, not good for power). Instead, the transmission is a seven-speed dual-clutch automated manual much like that offered in... Comparison vehicle: 2013 Acura ILX |

2007 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member5736 Averages about 25 mpg with my driving habits, but gets a little over 30 on the highway. |

If you Like the looks, you will LOVE the CAR 2010 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons A member in Florida, United States They say 30/42 MPG, I have NEVER seen below 34 mpg and that was trying to burn some fuel. Our first trip was to the Tri-state area in West NC. Hand calculated to 46.3mpg. We constantly get 42-43mpg on the highway, and 37-39 around town, which is 30mph driving. My... |

2013 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member5646 Averaging around 41mpg in the first week - my daily commute is 96 miles round trip. That mpg paired with the fun-to-drive factor made a VW diesel an easy choice for me over the hybrids I test drove. |

2013 Acura ILX 2.4L Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh Why doesn't Acura offer the larger four-cylinder engine with an automatic transmission? Likely because its fuel economy is already iffy with the stick. The EPA ratings are 22 MPG city, 31 highway. One benefit of turbochargers is that they enable lower rpm shifts and taller gearing. A Jetta GLI matches... Comparison vehicle: 2012 Volkswagen Jetta |

2011 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member217 While rated at only 32 MPG highway, I drove the Jetta roundtrip from Bakersfield, CA to Las Vegas, NV (300 miles each way, over 3 mountain passes) and the car returned 37 MPG at a cruising speed of 80 MPH. |

2009 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons onefastdriver Exceptionally consistent. Even with auto, it gets between 42 and 45 mpg routinely. I drive efficiently, but it still can pull up sizeable hills at speed while carrying a considerable load. |
