Between 20-25, the Internet says 30 but even I will say ballacks to that, that's dreaming. if you drive it like an ars* it does sweet FA to the gallon and it will do high 20's on a continuous run. It's not something that bothered me because it's such a nice car to drive. To be honest, I don't visit the pumps as often as I thought I would. I'd have expected you to get better MPG than that? We have a Hyundai Entourage mini van in the USA with the 3.8L engine and that gets low 20's (UK mpg) round town and about 32mpg on the motorway/highway. It's also an extremely heavy vehicle. I had a Hyundai Coupe V6 back in Canada in 2003 which achieved 38mpg on a run from Edmonton to Banff at "silly speeds" - I was absolutely shocked at the mpg at the time!!! That's a lot of car for the money if it's as clean as it looks in the photos - I think you also have the slightly cheaper tax on this one being pre 2001 as well? |

It probably does do much better MPG than I have got but I am a sucker for the cruise control which kills economy. It's far more frugal than my 300tdi discovery at any rate. I think I'm probably playing the figures down a bit. And yea, cheaper tax. I wouldn't have bought it in the first place if it was the high tax one .  |
