Fuel economy was pen n paper calculated at 30 in mostly highway driving. Rather poor city mpg at under 20.
Engine is a boxer 4cyl, 2.5L and has a most wonderful growl. Despite the utter lack of power.
Car was otherwise perfect. Comfy, drove well, solid feeling, good driving dynamics and a true pleasure for the week.
If you are considering one, get the flat six cylinder version. Night and day difference in driving satisfaction.
I have driven my fathers (2.5)and found acceleration to be way more than sufficient, no problem passing or romping on it to enter the freeway and he never had an issue with his up to this point. Average MPG in city is 27 and highway is 34, can't complain about that. A poor review in my opinion.
I was passing cars and romping on autobahn in Germany with Yugo. It had sufficient acceleration to get on autobahn and to overtake some Porsche's who were in right lane. I guess that means it had sufficient acceleration, right?
