Replying to: xtec (Aug 31, 2007 3:14 pm) On my last tank of gas I got 20.3,on this tank,I got my highest so far which was 20.6.This is all city driving.The dual exhuast,plus running premium has alot to do with this.I'm very happy with my Charger so far after 2 years,its been a great car.I just turned 6k miles a couple of weeks ago.
#20 of 28 Trip MPG by xscout Jan 28, 2008 (1:41 pm)
On a trip to Tallahassee the other day using all interstate driving, we got 28.3 MPG. This was figured using the full tank to full tank method. Car is a 2007 Charger SXT 3.5V6 with spoiler.
#21 of 28 SE Rental, 2.7 liter V6 by highmiler650 Apr 10, 2008 (7:04 am)
I have been using a Charger SE with the 2.7 liter V6 engine this week. I am getting 30 MPG on my commute, 50% highway and 50% stop and go, 40 miles each way. Amazing for such a heavy car! The ride is very comfortable and there is more than enough power. You barely hear the engine at 70.
#22 of 28 08 srt8 by todd7 Jun 25, 2008 (8:49 pm)
So far I'm averaging 13-15mpg in the city and a high of 23mpg on the highway. Given the performance of this car, I'm satisfied with that

I commute about 65 miles a day, gas mileage is important.   Best real world highway mileage??? Replies to this message: smokey75 (Jan 17, 2009 10:45 am)

Replying to: murphy4 (Nov 25, 2008 8:40 pm) Sorry for such a late reply. Straight highway in my 2008 RT with the R&T package I get about 22-24 MPG doing 75-80mph. When I drive mostly city I see about 13 mpg. My wife gets about 15-16 mpg with more of a combined city/highway commute (and probably less of a lead foot).
#28 of 28 Not bad by osticca Oct 09, 2009 (7:24 am)
We took our 2006 SRT8 to Cali from PHX in 08 and drove it on the I-1 or PCH and got a surprising 25 mpg for the whole trip. In town my wife and I are getting about 18 mpg. Of course when I get in it drops to about 17.8 mpg. But thats not bad ether. The figures are not calculated using the fill up tank method, these numbers come from the display in the dash. Pay caution though for whoever does read these numbers, if you leave the key in the acc position the mpg readout will drop as if the car were on and you were parked. Perhaps Chrysler corrected this after 06. So far we love this car. I was a little disappointed with the cheap plastic but after purchasing a 2008 Malibu, I now know what real cheap plastic is. The blinker switch is in the wrong location, too bad Chrysler couldn't move it up 2 inches.
