How bad is the gas on the fx45?
 
hey guys im thinking about getting the fx-45 however, im also wondering how much it'll cost me for a full tank of gas a premium at the rate nowadays. Also how much mpg do you get out of it. and how much you guys spend per month on gas. thanks

My rough estimate is prob gonna cost around 80-90 dollars a tank.

thanks hmm i think its more because my 3.2 cl-s is around 70 or so for premium gas and this car is 4.5L v8 which also takes premium gas

The fuel tank is 90L. You can do the math yourself.
It would be easily over $130+ a tank to fill up.

As for how much mileage you can get out of it...why not join some FX35/45 forums?

Whoa the tank is 90L??! Holy crap I thought most midsize suvs are around 50-60 l

Its not very good at all. I just went on a small road trip with my moms. I managed to get 18-20MPG, all highway, driving it like a baby.

chann3r 06-09-2011 06:51 PM
haha shit that's quite expensive. um I actually joined one but the are in the states and they're usually highway driving so its kinda different I think. What which SUV would u say would have the best gas mpg or best gas? x5, fx45 or rx350

Jayboogz 06-09-2011 06:59 PM
Imo if your looking for fuel economy don't get an SUV and with the cars you've listed paying for gas shudnt b a problem

yeah i understand where your coming from. I just don't want to have to pay 500 bucks a month going from my house to BCIT and back which is like a 15 min drive

Shorn 06-09-2011 08:18 PM
then don't look for luxury suvs? maybe go with something like a crv or rav4.. gotta pay to play

i just got a fx35, so far it's not that bad. It's the same engine as a 350 or g35. You don't have to get a fx45. For city driving V6 is good enough for me

if you can afford a fx45/x5 but have to worry about gas price.. you are stretching your budget too far. get a cheaper car so you have extra money leftover for gas.

iirc my g35's tank is 75 L

50-60 isn't a lot of gas as most cars should be able to do about 300-400 km on a tank, and 50-60 isn't possible for most suvs with a V6+
