Volvo V60 Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Comment
2015	Recently Volvo launched a serious push to improve its cars' fuel economy. For 2015 the five- and six-cylinder engines in its front-wheel-drive models have been replaced by a new four-cylinder engine. The benefit? Fuel economy for the related S60 T5 sedan improved from 21 mpg city, 30 mpg highway last year to 25 / 37 this year. The new numbers are the best for any gasoline-powered car in the segment. The BMW 328i checks in a couple mpg lower on each test. The 328i wagon, hindered by standard all-wheel-drive, manages "only" 22 / 33 (still impressive figures for such a quick car). Volvo's new engines include a start / stop function that automatically shuts off the engine when the car isn't moving, then automatically restarts it when you lift off the brake. This system operates far more smoothly than BMW's initial attempt, but might still annoy some people. They can hit a button to deactivate it, but they'll have to do this every time they start the car. Since I wasn't at home while testing the V60, I can't compare its real-world fuel economy to that of other cars I've tested. On a twisty rural road the Volvo's trip computer reported 24.8 mpg. On a 70-mph highway it reported 32.5 mpg, well short of the EPA rating. At a lower speed it might have matched the rating. see full Volvo V60 review

2009	4dr SUV 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed automatic FWD	Coming from a Trailblazer, we like the average of 21-22 MPG in mixed driving, as were used to about 17 MPG. Fuel economy climbs toward the rated 26 MPG the more highway driving we do. see full Mercury Mariner review

2005	4dr SUV 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed automatic AWD	For an SUV with a 4cyl and 4wd I get avg of 22 MPG mixed city and highway. I usually get 23-26 on freeway only. This is good. see full Mercury Mariner review

Mercury Mariner Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr SUV 200-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic AWD	For some reason when new Michelin All Terrain tires with Nitrogen air replaced the Champions from the factory, it plummeted to 17 & 20 mpg. No explanation from Michelin, Costco or Ford/Mercury - they have no idea why. see full Mercury Mariner review
