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

Volkswagen Tiguan Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2013	4dr SUV turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Swapped the paper filter for a K&N filter, kept the original air box. Get over 24mpg city, close to 30 on the freeway w/ moderate hills. see full Volkswagen Tiguan review
2012	4dr SUV turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	For a small crossover/suv its pretty good. Went on a 400 mile round trip to the mountains (5,500ft elevation) for the weekend and back (2,00ft elevation) and averaged 26mpg. Day to day driving I get about 25.5mpg without trying to be conservative. see full Volkswagen Tiguan review
2009	4dr SUV turbocharged 140hp 2.0L I4 Diesel 6-speed manual AWD	40+ mpg constantly. see full Volkswagen Tiguan review

Volkswagen Tiguan Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2013	4dr SUV turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Our Tiguan ranges from 20-30 mpg, between city and highway cruising. It's consistently about 5 mpg thirstier than the GTI. Blame the extra weight, but there's less than 400 lbs of that, IIRC. Or blame the AWD, but it's part-time only. I blame the large aero cross-section; it stands about a foot taller than a Golf. If VW would offer a TDI in the Tiguan, they'd sell as many as they could spare to the US market. I'd be standing in line. see full Volkswagen Tiguan review
2009	4dr SUV turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Bring the tdi diesel to the US and problem solved. see full Volkswagen Tiguan review
2009	4dr SUV turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Less than I had hoped for at around 25mpg average. see full Volkswagen Tiguan review
2009	4dr SUV turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Its OK, but could be better. I see 21-22 suburban, as much as 28 on long highway trips. Premium fuel is the bigger drawback. see full Volkswagen Tiguan review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Volvo S80

Volvo S80 Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr Sedan 235-horsepower 3.2L I6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Even though it says it requires Premium in Summer some where in that manual it states I can use 87~89 octane gas without harming the engine. That is helpful to know. With premium fuel and my mainly highway driving with only 2 persons on board we get 25MPG see full Volvo S80 review
2005	4dr Sedan turbocharged 161hp 2.4L I5 Diesel 5-speed automatic FWD	Very small comparing to other cars see full Volvo S80 review
2004	4dr Sedan turbocharged 268hp 2.9L I6 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Excellent city and highway mileage. see full Volvo S80 review
2001	4dr Sedan 168-horsepower 2.4L I5 5-speed automatic FWD	I've had this car for 13 years now and the mpg has always been very good. Being a European model (2.4 litre petrol auto - 170 bhp) it does not compare directly with any US models. I have the air con on 100% of the time. If I keep to the speed limit - 80 -85 on the speedo I get 35 mpg (English gallons!) without any problem. On a holiday trip to Portugal doing long distance driving and at slightly slower speeds - say 70 mph on the speedo - I managed 40 mpg over nearly 1,500 miles. In town stop start driving I will usually get 25 mpg. Impressive figures I think for a 13 year old vehicle weighing as much as it does. see full Volvo S80 review
2000	4dr Sedan turbocharged 268hp 2.8L I6 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	average 18 MPG see full Volvo S80 review

2007	4dr Sedan 235-horsepower 3.2L I6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Very good fuel economy overall but running the AC continuously does produce a noticeable 2-3 mpg decrease in fuel economy. see full Volvo S80 review
