Got to love that HHR MPG
1 Attachment(s)
I have been driving a 07 TB SS AWD with the 6.0L V-8 Vette motor for the past 3 yrs. The BEST MPG I ever saw with that was 16.0
Now granted I drive over 80mph regularly and that was probably keeping it around 77-80mph but with 4 adults, 1 infant(w/seat), and a trailer hitch luggage rack. Mix in some slow driving due to snow & traffic... still 16.0 the best. my 2010 HHR SS gets me usually around 20mph around town with the a/c on and 22 without. But the wife took it on a biz trip this week and when I got in it yesterday to drive to work... I noticed this... Attachment 30487 Needless to say I'm more than excited. I also expect this to increase slightly as the car only has 2500 or so on it. Sound about normal to you guys? |
Doing only highway miles I easily get around 34 mpg. Throw in the mix of city driving and it brings it down to around 25-27mpg.

My average is around 25-27. It's down a bit now since i don't have any classes I haven't been doing much expressway driving.

That looks about right :skull:

I recently got 27.4 mpg on a 1000 mile roundtrip from Puerto Vallarta to Mexico City. With the exception of going through a few towns all of it was high speed driving (80+ and more than a few blasts to 125+) while crossing numerous mountain ranges. Blows my mind. I got my license in the early sixties when gas was cheap but you used a lot of it to power.

Best I ever got on a tankfull was @520 miles, all highway, was 33.5 MPG.
I average over 30 MPG this summer with most of it long trips on mostly secondary roads with a little highway thrown in. That's with very little traffic & very few stops but plenty of hills & mountains. I get about 27 around town. |

Are you guys with the higher MPG, driving sticks or autos? And how agressive do you drive? |
