Best Gas Mileage Luxury Sedan

Not all luxury sedans are gas hogs! These days, it's possible to save on gas and be green, while riding in style. The best gas mileage luxury sedans give up little to their gas guzzling brethern when it comes to comfort. Choose a certain German luxury sedan and you stand to save thousands upon thousands of dollars per year in the cost of fuel.

The 2007 Mercedes-Benz E320 Bluetec is the hands-down MPG winner in the Luxury Sedan class. Mated to an electronically controlled seven-speed automatic transmission, the E320's 24-valve 3.0 liter V-6 diesel engine, delivers a very respectable 23 city and 32 highway miles per gallon. With 208 horsepower (at 3,800 rpm) and net torque of 388 lb-ft (between 1,600 and 2,400 rpm) the MB E320 has plenty of ooomph off the line and on the highway.

Decade after decade, Mercedes-Benz's diesel-powered sedans have set the standard for fuel economy with luxury. The E320 Bluetec, along with its 4WD SUV diesel-powered brothers -- GL320 CDI, ML320 CDI SUV, and R320 CDI SUV -- give all every other automaker something to shoot for ... should those manufacturers ever get off their duffs and choose to compete in an American marketplace hungry for the ever-obvious benefits of domestically produced biodiesel.
