What's your average fuel economy (v6) ? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I'm just curious. What people get. I'm in Canada so I get 10.4 l/100km which is about 22.6 mpg average. When I bought the car the average was 14.1 l/100km which I think is nuts. Cause I'm pretty hard on the pedal sometimes. So what do other people get ?

22 - 23mpg average overall. 60 - 70% highway driving....with some "spirited" runs thrown in there.

Best I have gotten was just under 29 average on one trip. Others have reported 30+.

A guy with a 2013 2LS just reported a trip where he got 33mpg average.

Some of you guys get really good fuel economy. It amazing how far we have advanced in regards to fuel economy over the past few years.

25 pretty consistently but a lot of it is on the highway. Never did worse than 22 and once did 29.

skipinminn · 09-09-2013, 11:37 PM

After 15,700 miles I am at 21mpg. My lowest has been around 14.5mpg my highest has been 29mpg on this car. My 2010 I had before this one was much better. I could get normally 18 in town and 32mpg on the highway. I attribute the lower mpg on the one I have now to it being a convertible with worse aerodynamics and higher weight.

brandonrr · 09-10-2013, 12:16 AM

when i had my camaro, i got about 21mpg. i get 20-23mpg now, depending on how i drive. driving hard, the camaro got better mileage. driving tame, my current car actually does a little better on gas then the camaro did, to my surprise.
