Acura MDX Gas Mileage: 10 Tanks and Counting

If you follow this site you probably know by now that I love crunching data, especially when it comes to the fuel efficiency of my cars.

In late October of this year my wife and I purchased a 2009 Acura MDX to replace her aging Honda Accord. Obligatory plug: we took delivery via Harper Acura who worked diligently to procure the car from another state and ensure they left us as happy customers. I’ve been going to Harper VW and Harper Acura since 2002ish and they’ve never disappointed me. If you’re in the market give Shannon a call at the Porsche building and he’ll hook you up with the right person.

What I found after 2.5 years of tracking my fuel consumption

A little over a month ago I gave you a glimpse at my auto-shifting 2006 Acura TSX fuel economy. After nearly 2.5 years of ownership I remain completely satisfied each time I complete a commute.

The same can be said for my fuel consumption. The owners manual for the TSX calls for no less than 91 octane. Beginning February 7, 2006, the only octane ratings guzzled up have been 92 or 93, depending on the fueling station.

After 133 fill-ups I have averaged 25.93 MPG, or 27.53 MPG per the multi informational display (MID) located in the gauge cluster. I arrived at the 25.93 number by dividing miles on the tank by gallons needed to top off the tank; a number I feel more confident in versus the MID.
