Largest Gas Guzzlers

GasFumes — Mon, 16 Jun 2008 16:17:06 +0000

Here is a list of the heaviest vehicles sold in the states in 2008:

CHEVROLET Suburban 2500 6L
CHEVROLET Suburban 2500 6.2L
PORSCHE Cayenne Turbo 4.8L
LINCOLN Navigator 5.4L
GMC Yukon 2500 6L
GMC Yukon 2500 6.2L
HUMMER H2 6.2L
FORD Expedition 5.4L
HUMMER H2 6L

These vehicles are not required to share mileage ratings due to the over 8500lb (CAFE) status each holds.

Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) is the sales weighted average fuel economy, expressed in miles per gallon (mpg), of a manufacturer’s fleet of passenger cars or light trucks with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of 8,500 lbs. or less, manufactured for sale in the United States, for any given model year. Fuel economy is defined as the average mileage traveled by an automobile per gallon of gasoline (or equivalent amount of other fuel) consumed as measured in accordance with the testing and evaluation protocol set forth by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

Interesting how many are from GM…hmmm. What were YOU Thinking?

Vehicles above a 8,500 lb. GVW rating did not have to comply with CAFE (Corporate Average Fuel Economy standards). The H2’s GVW came in at a convenient 8,600 lbs. Slightly large enough to miss the our quality Federal fuel economy marks. No official fuel economy number have ever been released on the H2, but most reviewers have observed an average somewhere between 9 city and 12 hwy.

Least Fuel Efficient SUV

GasFumes — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 20:16:46 +0000

Well, it’s official, the worst fuel efficient SUV is the 2008 – Mercedes-Benz G 55 AMG. This 5635lb hunk of metal, gears and luxury brings in the bottom of the mpg rating of 11 city and a whopping 13 on your highway cruise and an amazing 12 mpg combined. On an average 15,000 mile yearly workout, your new Mercedes-Benz G 55 AMG will have consumed 28.6 barrels of fine crude oil. After you empty your wallet, fueling your beast to 25.4 gallons you will be able to commute 274 miles until the next visit to the gas station. With 493 horsepower under the hood guzzling gas is no problem. Congrats on the award! What were YOU Thinking?
