Mileage in your camaro? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Moonchopper · 04-25-2012, 07:24 PM

Hey guys, ever since switched from my Hyundai Elantra to my Camaro 2SS/RS, I knew that I would be paying more in gas, without a doubt. I know peeps have talked on here what they run in their car, the number of miles they put on it, etc., but I'm just curious to know about what kind of gas mileage peeps get on here? What's the highest you've seen?

So far, I average about 22-23 mpg, about 75% highway, 25% city miles. Now, of course, I'm going by the 'Average Fuel Economy' display on my car, and I haven't checked to see if it's accurate, but I assume it is (correct me if I'm wrong!). So far, I've found that I can get 27-28 mpg highway if I'm reeeaalllyy light on the throttle (which is pretty damn hard in this beast

)

What kind of mileage do you get in your Camaro? SS, LS, LT, whatever. I find myself playing the game where I try to see how high I can get the AFE display

About 24 all around, average

Ringo64 · 04-25-2012, 07:29 PM

Don't care, I have fun. So far around 14mpg last I checked

kr juice 1 · 04-25-2012, 07:31 PM

usually around 13.2 on a good week 14.2

GunnyG · 04-25-2012, 07:31 PM

20.5 MPG and glad for it! My Escalade was about 14, so this Camaro is a marked improvement.

2010 1SS/RS M6 w/ just over 5k miles right now and I am getting around 16-18 mpg on the mountainous, curvy roads where I live.

filthyfun · 04-25-2012, 07:40 PM

Just over 20 mpg average. But i don't pay attention. It's too much fun to drive this car to care about gas mileage.

ss409cid · 04-25-2012, 07:48 PM

21.2 MPG @ 46.1 MPH over 2150 miles......

007s 'Vert · 04-25-2012, 07:55 PM

Here we go again for the umteenth time.....I am getting 30+ I live out in the stix and have many different techniques for saving fuel.
But when I really just want to have fun and get on it , I rarely get less than 25 MPGs.
Don't ask me how because I really dont feel like getting flamed and/or accused of exaggerating things right now. Whether or not you believe me doesn't really matter because after all is said and done, it is I who fills that tank up and pays for it.

lol I actually tried searching for other threads to make sure I didn't duplicate, but was unable to find any. Maybe I just suck at searching.

I can't wait to take my Camaro to the mountains (about an hour away for me) -- I've never loved curves until I got the Camaro

(Excluding the motorcycle)

I get 25 MPG, have an LS.

luis nunez · 04-25-2012, 09:16 PM
