Really? That's interesting, since GM itself says the 6L vortec V8 requires 91 octane minimum. remember we're talking about the 6L engine, which is in the silverado SS.

Again, I work for GM, and the Aveo is fully able to maintain the higher mileage. You need to go back and check sources as to where the manufacturers calculate their mileage. If you check, you will find that the government is working on a standard of which ALL manufacturers will have to follow. As it is currently, each manufacturer has their OWN basis for calculations.

OK, but the fact still remains that the Aveo's claimed mileage is still lower than the Fit's claimed mileage.

I cited sources too, so I was not "just spouting off information."

-5.7L V-8--Not much is known yet, but we'll assume this'll be one of the most sophisticated truck engines around. Like Nissan's DOHC 5.6L V-8 (320 hp/385 lb-ft), the Toyota engine will have four valves per cylinder.

Your information is significantly out of date. Here.
