#67 of 196 07 2.5 CVT by frankinbeans Aug 14, 2007 (5:16 pm)
Getting on average about 23-24 mpg all city driving with only 700 miles on her. Just for comparison, my previous car an 07 Civic EX auto averaged 25-26 mpg same driving conditions. I'm very impressed. More power and more room and I'm losing only 2 mpg. Not bad. I'm guess I'll get a few more mpg out of it when she's broken in. The Altima impresses me more everyday I drive it.

Replying to: mikezak (Jul 25, 2007 1:41 pm) Should you except better? I guess you could. But you're getting 3 mpg better than the old EPA estimates for hi way driving. I couldn't get 33 mpg on a good day with my Civic. Replies to this message: frankinbeans (Aug 15, 2007 7:36 am)

Replying to: frankinbeans (Aug 14, 2007 5:20 pm) Correction. Two mpg better with the new EPA figures. One less with the old EPA figures.   Old EPA City: 26 Old EPA Hwy: 34 New EPA City: 23 New EPA Hwy: 31   Regardless, you are getting nice numbers.
#70 of 196 2007 Nissan Altima 2.5s Gas Mileage or lack of by bizzjet1 Oct 27, 2007 (9:26 am)
I have 8,000 miles on my 2007 Altima 2.5s. I have tracked every tank of fuel and have never come close to the 26mpg city / 34mpg highway that sold me on this car. I have averaged around 21.5mpg. The best was 26.0 mpg on a all highway trip. The worst was 19.1. What are the rest of you experiencing?   Are you pleased with the car? I have been a little disappointed!

Replying to: bizzjet1 (Oct 27, 2007 9:26 am) The EPA on the '07 was based on an old test. The new EPA for a '08 (which has the same engine as an '07) is 23 city and 31 Hwy.   It's still better than the '08 Accord or Camry.

Replying to: bizzjet1 (Oct 27, 2007 9:26 am) Well, that EPA estimate was was "over inflated" for quite some time as everyone knows. So much so, that the EPA re-calculated their figures for 2008 models. 2.5S is now 23/31 mpg. So you're not as bad off as you thought. But it does seem a tad low.   I have had my 2008 2.5S for 1 month now and the 1st 2 tanks were 27.7 and 28.6 mpg - needless to say, I am very happy!....

Replying to: bizzjet1 (Oct 27, 2007 9:26 am) I only have 800 miles on my 2008 so far. I got 23 something on my first tank and 24.5 on my second. Right now, I'm at 25 something on my third so far. It has been mostly commuting driving with little highway (average speed was like 30 mph according to the computer).
#74 of 196 Recent Mileage on 2007 3.5 SE with 5,000 Miles by victrolajazz Oct 30, 2007 (11:30 am)
I'm getting 24-26 MPG regularly with my 3.5 SE--that's a mixture of about 70% highway driving. I've found that my mileage calculator on the dash and actual arithmetic based on brim-to-brim tanks to be less than 1/2 gallon in difference, so I'm pleased.

Replying to: victrolajazz (Oct 30, 2007 11:30 am) Just picked up my '08 3.5 SL last night, Wahoo! What a sweet ride - will miss the Murano though. Can't wait to see the mpg difference, averaged 20-22 highway in the Murano so anything better than that (if I can keep my foot out of it) will be great!

Replying to: bizzjet1 (Oct 27, 2007 9:26 am) I have had my 2008 2.5s for a little under a month now and have about 1400 miles on it. According to the in dash computer I have been getting between 32-33 mpg. I have not calculated it myself yet to ensure the computer is accurate. I do primarily highway driving. So far I am very happy with the mpg and the car in general!
