2009 4dr SUV 288-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Too Early to judge (625 miles on her). Initially, 1st tank 15.6 mpg. I am attributing the low mpg due to the honeymoon of a new vehicle and sitting idling for extended times while figuring out how everything works (and showing features to others). see full Saturn Outlook review

The sticker said 24. I get an honest 24 and 25 on hyw ( I drive at speed limits) MILAGE AROUND TOWN IS 17 PLUS see full Saturn Outlook review

For highway driving -- which our primary [90%?] use of this vehicle -- I get 22-24 mpg. For an AWD with the capacity of this vehicle, that is a very competitive mph. see full Saturn Outlook review
2007 4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6

For the size of vehicle fuel economy is more than expected. see full Saturn Outlook review
2007 4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Good balance between towing capacity and fuel economy. For a rather large vehicle I think 21-22 on hwy is pretty good, and 12-14 towing the boat. Most of my driving is highway commute, but it seems as though shorts trips around town the mpg is lower. see full Saturn Outlook review

Still too new to tell, so far only 13+ mpg in town.(only 2600+ mi so far) I live in hilly country so 19+ hwy is still acceptable. I have seen 21+ Hwy see full Saturn Outlook review

well, i guess its just that with the prices of gas the economy would have been ok, 2 years ago, but not today.. i actually dont do as much after work these days cause of it see full Saturn Outlook review

I was used to the Saturn Vue which got between 22 - 25 miles per gallon. Now my Outlook is getting less than 15 in the city. It will take a little getting used to, but we decided to sacrifice fuel economy for a roomier vehicle. see full Saturn Outlook review

mpg is ok for a crossover SUV but with gas prices of today vehicles need to get much better gas mileage. see full Saturn Outlook review

Fuel economy was not as high as that of the Sienna, and in addition, many of the estimates seemed too high and were not supported by actual user feedback/comments found on Internet site reviews see full Saturn Outlook review
