What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Pontiac G6 MPG
| Pontiac G6 Fuel Economy: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 164-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
I opted to get the 4 cylinder 6 speed automatic because of the higher EPA rating and I have a fairly long commute to and from work. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 169-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Getting 25 city miles |
| 2007 | 2dr Coupe 224-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Amazingly it gets 30+ on the highway. I usually drive in stop-and-go traffic but still get 20 mpg easily. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
Even with a 6 cylinder, and my overzealous driving, I regularly got 28-29 MPG. This is a mix of highway and city driving in a very hilly area. |

| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 219-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
The V6 I drove had MPG ratings slightly worse than the 4-cyl models I was looking at. |
| 2007 | 2dr Hardtop conv. 217-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Not good enough. |
