My current ride Edge is going to replace gave me around 26mpg (9.2 l/100km) on our longest family trip - over 5000K kms from Toronto, ON to SW Florida and back.
Damn I'm sold.
Goodbye Titanium, hello Sport.

I took a trip this past weekend that was just under 2 hours each direction. Averaged 25.9MPG according to the trip computer. 92 octane, Sport, standard wheels, etc etc

Thank you CDS71! I was reading conflicting stuff on it.

Just got back from a 800 mile trip with the 2015 2.7L TT (2000 miles on car). Ran it 70-75 mph on 87 octane regular with up to 10% ethanol. Got 26.8 mpg on way up and 27.8 on the way back. Trip odometer and manual calculation pretty much the same. Happy with car. Vista roof open all the way is a little overwhelming though.

When posting your MPGs, be sure to mention whether your vehicle have FWD or AWD. That will make a big difference.

Imperial gallon measurement nets 30.9 mpg approx, while in the US, that would be about 25.7 mpg, still very very good!

Highway figures have enormous variability, so do city ones. Beyond Octane, car mileage and speed, here are a few other parameters:
- how many times have you accelerated to pass another car?
- how aggressive are you at doing so?
- was the road fairly flat or hilly?
- how bad was the head wind?
- how many slow up's then resume's because of Sunday drivers or traffic swarms?
- what was the total weight during the trip (driver only, family, luggage...) ?
- gas tank full most of the time?
- tire pressure?
- tire thread (winter, summer, 4 season, high speed)
- what was the average outside temperature during the trip?
- cruise or not?
- AC on or not
- side and/or panoramic roof open?
What I tend to check is instant consumption on a flat straight road at my regular cruising speed (120km/h or 75m/h); even then I take it with a grain of salt. The reason for that is that my biggest surprise was looking at my outrageous consumption over time that included a 40 minute stand still during a Sync update.

Cv27.....yes I would totally agree....I was pleasantly surprised that our edge sport gets just as good of mpg as our fwd pontiac torrent....which produces 185 hp....this was calculated over 4 months of gas consumption.

'15 AWD Sport (2.7L V6) 20" rims with 1200 miles on it. Always filled with 93 octane. Have never reset Trip 2 since it was new. Shows 18.9 mpg per computer. 90% city driving with the AC on all the time in the seats and mostly in the cabin. Pedal to the floor at most lights and If I'm getting on the freeway I'm hitting 80 halfway up the on ramp. Thats why I bought a Sport. If i wanted MPG i would have bought a SEL or Titanium with a little motor.

Checked this morning and I'm averaging just under 20mpg around town. Not much, if any, highway miles.
Edge Sport 2.7L
