Default Re: What's the best MPG can the PT Cruiser get?

I have noted my gas milage on 3 tanks on my 06 manual non-turbo and I got an average of 27mpg, one tank was highway, one city and one 50-50.

but note that I'm not hard ont it and I never go over 3000rpm and half throttle. plus when driving at a constant speed I'm usually in 5th gear even at only 35mph. obviously when I need to accelerate or go uphill I downshift because there is really no power at 1200rpm.

It still be less than most cars but IMO for a 2.4L and the size of the vehicle its not that bad
