The thing is the last body style of hyundai sonata the v6 has very simular weight, frontal square footage and Cd as a 3rd gen. The hyunda gets up to 8mpg better than the old V8 80s car.
So its possible for car of that mass and aero profile to get mpgs in the high 20s. The difference is all engine, engine management and gearing.
