#1 of 69 Pontiac Vibe: MPG-Real World Numbers by pf_flyer HOST Jun 12, 2006 (11:39 am)
With the price of gas being what it is, your real world mileage is becoming more important than the estimates on the sticker. This is the place to talk about your real world on the road results! Replies to this message: unknown (Jun 15, 2006 9:21 am) 150mphclub (Sep 16, 2006 4:03 pm)
#2 of 69 All Highway by mjb56 Jun 12, 2006 (3:28 pm)
On a recent trip to northern Wisconsin, all highway miles, driving 60-65 mph we got 35.7 mpg. Pretty relaxed drive, nice weather. Outstanding vehicle. Our normal city driving has shown about 28 mpg.
#3 of 69 Great Gas Mileage! by jstant01 Jun 13, 2006 (6:16 am)
My 2005 5-speed Vibe has consistently returned around 35mpg in mostly highway driving (70mph) to work and back.   On long trips, at extended highway speeds of between 65 and 70mph, I have registered as high as 40.2mpg. I am very pleased with the Vibe's gas mileage!

Replying to: pf_flyer (Jun 12, 2006 11:39 am) We are consistently getting a little better than 30mpg. We are very pleased with it.
#6 of 69 2006 FWD AT by fear_hope Jun 15, 2006 (5:58 pm)
I average 32+ MPG mostly highway driving, sometimes using the A/C and sometimes not. Best tank so far was 33.33MPG before it was hot enough here to use the A/C. I drive normally most of the time and spirited occasionally. With my commute to work a fill up lasts about 6 days. I'm happy with it. (Sort of envious of those Scion and Civic owners who are getting 38MPG though...) By the way, it would be helpful and more meaningful if everyone includes the model and transmission type when posting. Replies to this message: pdrake (Jun 17, 2006 9:30 am)

Replying to: fear_hope (Jun 15, 2006 5:58 pm) I am averaging 25-27 mpg with my 2006 VIBE GT. I must use 93 octane fuel or, it pings. I am very happy with the car because it really has some get up and go plus it gets decent mileage. I havnt used the AC much this year but, that is mostly for when the wife rides with me as I prefer the windows down and sunroof open.
#8 of 69 Wow! by mjb56 Jul 14, 2006 (8:26 pm)
The Mrs and I took a brief road trip today and got 37 mpg running the A/C generally going 60mph on back roads. That's about the best ever. We've got an 05 Base auto with about 19K mi. Just broken in. Great mpg and couldn't come at a better time.
#9 of 69 2007 mpg by jay39 Sep 09, 2006 (11:56 am)
the sticker for the 2007 Pontiac Vibe shows mpg as city 17 and highway 25. The 2006 is shown much higher, anyone know what that is about. Is the 2007 really giving lower mpg? Replies to this message: 150mphclub (Sep 16, 2006 4:08 pm) 150mphclub (Apr 08, 2007 12:17 pm)
#10 of 69 MPG on a VIBE vs. Nissan Versa vs. Toyota Matrix by patvizina Sep 10, 2006 (7:04 am)
Hi, I am choosing between these three cars, and am quite confused. I am told by both the pontiac and toyota dealer that the 2006 vibe was built by TOYOTA. However, when I look at the crash ratings posted in Edmunds, they show different crash ratings. I am quoted 36 city and 38 highway by both the dealers and my girlfriend who has the automatic transmission 2005 with 6 cd player. Any light on the fuzz?   Anyone else compare the 3 and know more? How about others actual mileage on the 2006 vs. 2007? Replies to this message: jstant01 (Sep 11, 2006 7:15 am) cmorton (Sep 11, 2006 12:58 pm)
