Miles Per Gallon is the measure of how far a vehicle can travel on a gallon of fuel. How much power the engine makes is not relevant as long as it can move the vehicle.

Volumetric efficiency is helped (a little) by cooler air, but that hurts FE rather than helping it, by causing the engine to use more fuel at idle.
