2007 Chevrolet Cobalt Fuel Economy: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 2dr Coupe 148-horsepower 2.2L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
While the Cobalt may only get 23mpg in real city driving with a heavy foot, it is still relatively easy to achieve 28mpg in the city and 35+mpg on freeway.

34 MPG observed - and this from a roomy stylish car that cost me less that 15,000
2007 2dr Coupe 148-horsepower 2.2L I4
5-speed manual FWD
While not as impressive as some of its competitors, the Cobalt is still good for low to mid 30s if driven properly.
2007 2dr Coupe 173-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
I like that the 2.4L engine is able to put out significantly more power than the 2.2L and keep the same economy. The SS 2.4L is pretty quick and fun to drive and I still get 28 mpg on average just gunning around town with a lead foot and about 20% high

Most neighbors report 35 mpg on hyway. here we do mostly high spped highway.

Under good highway driving conditions the Cobalt can go 700km on a single tank, but even in harsh conditions fuel economy is reasonable.
