The 4 cylinder, 2.4 liter, 169 HP, 4 speed automatic engine, gets only respectable mileage, not great mileage. Very, very conservative driving is only producing 22 mpg. Normal combination city/highway driving produces only about 20 mpg. This is below their 22 city and 30 highway estimate. This testing has been conducted on a new LT model during the cold, North East U.S. months. MPG will be better during the warmer months. The average and instant mpg shown on the information display is pretty acurate when compared to actual gas used and miles driven. Highway driving at 55-60 mph is only showing 25-26 mpg on the information display, not 30 as estimated. 4th gear at 45 mph will show 30 mpg. A fully synthetic oil may be a better solution than the standard oil to get a bit more mileage in the winter time. Mileage will also increase when the 6 speed automatic can be paired with the 4 cylinder engine in May 2008.
