Gas mileage for old cars?
Written by 50s Cars Guide on May 6th, 2010
What kind of gas mileage did old cars get? By old I mean OLD. As in from the the early 1900s to the 1950s? I’m just looking for a rough estimate.
Thanks for the answers. I know there are a ton of possibilities but I am just curious to hear some examples!

My dad can remember getting something close to 30mpg with a 1928 Model A Ford with a six cylinder…
DIFFICULT QUESTION TO ANSWER SINCE TH E PRICE OFPETROL HAS RISEN SO MUCH SINCE THEN, BUT I HAD A MORRISS 1000CC AND I USED TO GET ABOUT 50 MPG.
i didnt have a car in the 50s(i wasnt old enough), but i did have a 1956 chevy in the 60s and i got around 28 miles a gal. that wasnt bad, considering those cars were heavier then these cars today.
allot of variables are present here. ive got a 1968 gto. if i drive easily i get about 27 mpg, if i get hostile with the gas pedal, about 13mpg.
