Replying to: guyverfanboy (Feb 08, 2009 5:33 pm) I've got an 2009 Maxima. 4000 miles on it. I've had it since August and love it!! Overall, my average has been around 22mpg (combined city/highway). If I go on a road trip, I average between 27 to 28 mpg. Replies to this message: smarty666 (Sep 15, 2009 4:15 pm)

Replying to: cmyawn (Apr 01, 2007 8:37 am) I just got a 2007 Maxima SL this weekend. I observed the same thing with my first two fill-ups; when the gauge shows nearly empty, the DTE shows 60+ miles and 14 to 15 gallons will fill up the tank. I suspect it's just Nissan being overly conservative to cut us drivers some slack. Replies to this message: poodog13 (Apr 28, 2009 8:57 am)

Replying to: go_mdx1 (Feb 08, 2009 6:10 pm) wow, that is pretty good gas mileage considering there are 290hp under that hood; I've been getting just about the same mileage in my 2010 max; guess you have to thank the CVT for that!! will never get gas mileage like that in a G37 sedan!
#53 of 59 2009 and 2010 Maxima MPG and Regular or Premium by smarty666 Oct 10, 2009 (5:19 pm)
I was just curious what kind of gas mileage people are getting on their 2009 or 2010 Maxima? not too many people with 09 or 10 Max's have commented on their MPG and I was curious if people are using regular or premium gasoline? my nissan dealer told me I had to use premium in the max and that I could only get away with regular if I had the Altima V6 Replies to this message: tracguy (Oct 12, 2009 12:13 pm) sahil908 (Oct 13, 2009 11:06 am) gd420mj (Oct 15, 2009 5:53 am) gs42 (Oct 27, 2009 2:08 pm)
#54 of 59 Gas Mileage by redmazda3 Oct 12, 2009 (6:08 am)
My Wifes' 2009 Maxima has been averaging around 21.5 mpg on premium. Her typical day is a 7 mile commute in town with numerous stops and starts. I have almost the same commute with my 2009 Mazda6 V6 and only get around 19.5 mpg. We both drive the same driving style. I actually drive a little more conservative with my car and still can't get any better in town mileage. Oh well.

Replying to: smarty666 (Oct 10, 2009 5:19 pm) I get 22-23 on 30 mile commute half on the expressway and the rest city streets. I get about 27 on highway trips (about 250 miles each way 2/3 of which is mountains) It has been very consistent over 10,000 miles I have put on it.

Replying to: tracguy (Oct 12, 2009 12:13 pm) Wow! You guys are getting great MPG. I am from NYC, I drive my car mostly in the city, I have about 1400 miles on the car. I barely get like 16-17 MPG in the city, 21 MPG mixed City and Highway. I never tested all highway MPG. Infact, I didnt really go on any road trips yet. I will keep you guys posted.

#57 of 59 1997 Maxima SE 5spd 147K mi by gd420mj Oct 15, 2009 (5:53 am)
Replying to: sahil908 (Oct 13, 2009 11:06 am) My 1997 Maxima SE has 147k miles on it. Avg 31.7 MPG on a recent all highway trip, I locked the cruise control at 60mph the whole way, or as much as possible. Total trip with only about 5% suburban was 498 miles. Filled in 15.7 gallons. (16 gal tank).   Same trip doing 80 almost all the way, probably was about 22-23 mpg.   60 is hard to do these days on the inst 95 btwn NJ and VA. But is sure saves on gas. I wonder if could stretch it more at 55mph, but I'm afraid I am going to get rear ended by a crazy, speeding, trucker! damn they are ruthless...   Still, I think near 32 mpg for a 6 cyl car with near 150k miles on it is pretty good. And those 150k miles have been a extremely varied mix of miles and driving styles. (oil has bout 3k on it at the time).   Now if i get a little 4 cyl jobbie, can i get 50~60,...ohhh.
