    gas mileage

    I just got a pre-owned 2011 4.6 Genesis a few weeks ago. Given I got the V8, I realized gas mileage wasn't going to be the best, but the last few weeks I am averaging 19mpg. I do about half the driving on the highway, and half around town. Is this about what I can expect?

    Engine break in perioed and gas mileage

    My coupe has right at 21,000 miles on it now. I'd noticed the last couple of months the driving back and forth to work/around town mpg had gotten up to around 23/24 from 21/22 since I got it. I'd been wanting to get it out on the road but also wanted to wait on the weather at home to get...

    Very Bad Mileage

    I read plenty of comments on other pages about the Genesis 2.0T mileage and why they thought some get bad mileage. They generally said the driving habits were the problem. So, I took the car to the interstate, set the cruise at 60 MPH and drove five miles on a flat surface. I got a constant...
