4 Cylinder Suv

Posted on June 16, 2010.
4 Cylinder SuvIs it a 4 cylinder SUV get fuel consumption as a car 4 cylinder?

My husband is looking for a gas saving vehilce he found a 4-cylinder SUV he likes, I want something good on gas does my question is a 4-cylinder cars and SUVs get the same gas mileage?

All things being equal, the car will be better fuel economy, because it weighs less.
Motor works harder to move more weight.

If you know the year and model, you can see Consumerguide.com and it will tell you the fuel consumption.

Now, the current / actual fuel consumption depends on whether it is a used car and has been supported.

The question is somewhat vague - Not all cars with four-cylinder gets a better return than any SUV with four cylinders, but in general, the car will be much better.

For example - Honda CRV vs Agreement - the same size (2.4 liter) engine, but agreement gets better performance than either FWD or AWD CRV.

Ditto Toyota - Camry gets a better return than a RAV4

The reasons are a combination of weight, aerodynamics, and if the SUV 4WD/AWD, which also affects the mileage.

Again - this is a kind of generic answer, since you do not have any particular fact and models, especially if it seeks an SUV, you should compare the cars, it might interest you can go to www.edmunds . com and get all the stats on any vehicle, including evaluations of the EPA.

Hope this helps

Usually, the answer is no. Probably three-5mpg difference, which is much in our fuel situation.
1. SUVs are not as aerodynamic.
2. SUVs are generally heavier and larger vehicles.

Look in the Mercury Mariner.
