from 50+ mpg - 15mpg depending on how it is being used. If you are city driving with no load, then the batteries will be running 100%... if you are highway driving, it will probably going through its 4 cylinder mode, giving you probably about 25-30 mpg... if you are pulling a tailor through the city... probably close to 15mpg

I would like to know why, with the fule prices the way they are the people at GM haven't come up with a diesel version of a hybrid instead of this 6 liter gas engin. It seams like with a diesel motor combined with battery power this vehicle would finally set a trend for unbelievable fule efficency.

I cannot understand why, with the fule prices the way the are, GM hasn't come up with a diesel/hybrid instead of this 6 liter version? I know a small diesel has been tryed in the early 80's and tanked but times have changed. The new diesel is pretty quiet and the fule econemy of a small motor has been proven in the range rover so you would think a hybrid version of this would be very impressive. Please do not wait for the foren country's to come up with this first so we can follow AGAIN!!!!
