I got about 19 mpg hwy in my old 5.7L 4WD Suburban, if I coaxed it. Was afraid to drive much faster than 70 because of the rollovers, and I had some of those bad Firestone tires for a while. Loved it when refilling the 44-gallon tank at $4/gallon!
I got 30 mpg hwy once in my 1986 5.0L Camaro, with 5-speed. At 70 mph, barely 2000 rpm. Decent aerodynamics, so not working much harder than idling! My VW TDI Wagon only gets about 32 mpg around town. Aerodynamics are not great (surf racks don't help). Its sweet spot is probably 60 mph, but I have nowhere to drive long distances at that speed. At 70 mph on I-95, it gets over 45 mpg, but I'm typically doing 80 and getting around 40. I'm surprised we don't see more ECVT's (electronic continuously-variable transmissions); they've been around forever. |
