As posted in the other thread, the 2006 xb with a manual gets 26/30 in the 2008 tests, so expect about 3 mpg less in real-world mixed driving. Stop-and-go city driving could be as diff as 5 mpg depending on severity. Seems like a great tradeoff for way more power and space.

Yeah, comverted to the 2008 standards, it somehow beats the tC by 2 mpg city despite 100 extra lbs and way crappier aero.

How sure are we that they are displaying gas mileage for the 2008 standards? How is it possible that it beat the tc when the gearing is the same? Is it beacause it has slightly less hp than the tc?

It is illegal to advertise a mileage figure other than the EPA rated mileage. Since the 2008 xB is a 2008, it MUST be tested under the 2008 standards.

The mileage difference comes from a different tune, (new engine is tuned to be optimal in the 2008 tests because they knew that is how it would be tested) and also from the electric power steering. EPS offers a noticeable mileage improvement because it is much more efficient than the traditional hydraulic systems.
