Volkswagen Touareg Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr SUV turbocharged 225hp 3.0L V6 Diesel 8-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Diesel makes the extra weight of an SUV tolerable. In 4 months of use I've been getting high teens around town and 29 cruising on the highway at 70-75. Slowing down to 60-65 puts mpg just over 30. see full Volkswagen Touareg review
2011	4dr SUV turbocharged 225hp 3.0L V6 Diesel 8-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Like any diesel, it is always above EPA rating. No complaints at all. see full Volkswagen Touareg review
2011	4dr SUV supercharged 380hp 3.0L V6 Hybrid 8-speed shiftable automatic AWD	GREAT Economy. It is a game to see how high I can get up to. Last evening in a 40 minute local drive 31 mpg see full Volkswagen Touareg review

Volkswagen Touareg Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	4dr SUV 280-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range	I do not have a heavy foot and the V6 gas version gets only about 19-21 on HWY at 60 MPH opposed to 24-27 with a X5. I drove 700 mi (interstate) and averaged only 19 @ 70 mph. Not good! see full Volkswagen Touareg review
2008	4dr SUV 350-horsepower 4.2L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range	Very poor. The V6 gets barely 18 and the V8 gets 17mpg of PREMIUM. But then again you buys knowing, still disappointing. see full Volkswagen Touareg review
2006	4dr SUV 310-horsepower 4.2L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range	This car gets 14.7 city and 17.5 HWY. On Premium Fuel. But we pay the price for the speed, comfort, and security of the Touareg. see full Volkswagen Touareg review
2004	4dr SUV 310-horsepower 4.2L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range	14-16 mpg light loads around town; 6-9 when towing. see full Volkswagen Touareg review
2004	4dr SUV 220-horsepower 3.2L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range	14-15 mpg in todays market is not very good for an SUV with a V6. see full Volkswagen Touareg review

2008	4dr Extended Cab 6.5ft bed 315-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic RWD	I have the 1500 ext cab 2wd model that includes the 5.3 l v-8 with management. The truck gets 26 mpg on the highway!

2006	4dr Crew Cab 5.5ft bed 295-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic 4WD w/low range	With the specific gears I have in my truck, I get 20+ MPG on the highway...and I have a crew cab truck. City mileage is right in-line with the EPA of 14, but it is no worse than the others. see full Chevrolet Silverado 1500 review
2006	4dr Crew Cab 5.5ft bed 295-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic RWD	Good for a pickup truck. see full Chevrolet Silverado 1500 review
2006	4dr Extended Cab 6.5ft bed 295-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic RWD	The 5.3L gets an impressive 20mpg on the freeway and with a tonneau, about 21. Mixed driving is about 15-17mpg and purely city driving nets between 14-16mpg. Towing economy is not bad at about 12-13mpg with a light load and 9-11mpg with a heavy load. see full Chevrolet Silverado 1500 review

2004	4dr Crew Cab 5.5ft bed 295-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	Granted this is a truck but I did not like the fact that I was getting 14 mpg when the price of fuel was skyrocketing. This was never a good choice for fuel mileage. see full Chevrolet Silverado 1500 review
