If there is ever one thing to rave about in the Geo Metro, it's the gas mileage. It may not have the power or the flashiness of the other compact cars, or the fancy options they all have but the Geo Metro takes the cake when it comes to mileage. Because that's what the Geo Metro is all about. It was designed to be practical and economical. It doesn?t have a big engine because big engines guzzle up too much gas. The Geo is a gas saver and proud of it too.

 

The Geo Metro was aptly named; it was intended to be a city dweller. The stop and go routine of city driving consumes gas as the brake is always applied and the acceleration is wasted. Most reviews on the Geo Metro's mileage is based on city driving. Reports vary but the average gas mileage of the Geo Metro is about 48 miles per gallon. Some reports go as low as 42 miles to the gallon and some go as high as 55 miles per gallon. There were some who stated that on highway driving the metro can get to about 50 to 54 miles per gallon. Either way, the Geo Metro saves a lot of gas even if it doesn?t get you to the next stop as fast as the others.
