#5 of 295 Much higher possible by barnhapj Sep 18, 2006 (5:14 pm)
At the moment (2600mi) my '06 cobalt LS 2.2L 5-spd manual has gotten no less than 34.1mpg on any fill-ups. (Im not terribly light on the peddle either) Most trips are 50miles to work and 50 miles back w/ highway and city travel mixed. I did get 43.5mpg on one of the trips I went on a few weekends ago!(Checked it w/ the fill-up and the computer, its right!)

What a shocker! Not one automatic driver posting?   What kind of highway mileage can you expect with the 4-speed automatic?

Replying to: jaxs1 (Sep 28, 2006 4:56 pm) I have an SS sedan auto with 1500 miles and it says around 20 mpg avg for mixed driving. And that's barely moving LA traffic driving. At this point I'm hoping my car has some sort of correctable mechanical problem because this is just bad. What's going on? Replies to this message: ray_h1 (Oct 01, 2006 7:59 am)

Replying to: risto (Sep 29, 2006 2:53 pm) At merely 1,500 miles, your new engine's not even half run-in yet. Keep in mind that in L.A. urban crawl, when you're stopped, you're getting ZERO mpg. Even when it's moving (well, at least "moving" in terms of urban L.A.) it still won't compare with traffic conditions in east Possum Trot on a Sunday morning at 9:30 A.M. with it's one stop sign and everyone except the town drunk in church.

Replying to: KarenS (Jun 07, 2006 8:31 am) I rented a 2006 Cobalt LS 4 Dr sedan which had 23K miles and auto transmission on a recent trip to Seattle, WA. I averaged 30 MPG (according to the car's computer) over 800 miles with about 75/25 freeway/city driving. The handling was excellent and the ABS (with "brake assist") was outstanding. The car had Pirelli tires which probably helped with the handling. I am very pleased with both the MPG and the handling!

Replying to: cobaltken (Nov 23, 2006 12:41 pm) Sorry I forgot my car only has 1500 miles on it,so it should get better when it is broke in.
