Want the scoop on the best gas mileage
coupe? Chalk one up for a domestic automaker as it earns a draw
with the imports.
The 2.2 liter four-cylinder Pontiac G5 delivers
22 city, 31 highway with a five-speed manual transmission, achieving
a tie for the top spot with the automatic 2.4 liter four-cylinder
Toyota Camry Solara. The Best Gas Mileage Coupe category proved
to be fortunate to General Motors overall, with a fair number of
Pontiac G5s and G6s near the top of the chart, along with a pair
of Chevrolet Monte Carlos.
