Hi all. Just got my 2025 rebel and drove 250 miles on the freeway. Best I got was 15mpg. 72 to 82 mph. Is this it or will it get better? Also got a service tpm sensor code. That went away.
 
I just drove home in my new bighorn. Dash said 22.1 mpg. Hand calculated was 21.4 mpg. 470 miles of mostly interstate travel. SST engine
 
I own a 2021 Rebel, and that's about the same mileage I get running 87 octane. I wouldn't expect anything better from a Rebel. Its lifted, has bigger tires, is 4x4, it's not a recipe for fuel efficiency.
 
Routinely around 18mpg, as advertised.
 
My round trip I take about once of month of 600 miles I usually average around 20-21mpg hand calculated. I have a LoneStar with 3.92's. If I cruise below 75mph my instant reads around 20-25mpg. Anything above 75 and it drops down around to 17-21mpg.
 
I am around 4500 miles on my 2025 now.
Same driver, driving habits, city & HWY routes.
Hand calc. averages. BTW my trip computer is within 1 to 2 MPG (optimistic)
Only use 91-octane

Fuel economy of my 2019 with Hemi (5.7 Hemi, 3.92 Gears)
  • Avg city: 16MPG
  • Avg HWY: 19MPG
  • Avg speed: 75MPH
  • Avg. city/HWY: 18MPG
  • Avg towing (7000lb trailer) AZ to destination in UT: 12MPG
Fuel economy with the 2025 Hurricane engine (SSO. 3.92 gears) to date:
  • Avg. city: 17 MPG
  • Avg. HWY: 22 MPG
  • Avg. speed: 75MPH
  • Avg. City/HWY: 20 MPG
  • Avg towing: TBD –
 
The Rebel, unless a diesel, is always going to suck in comparison to the other trims when it comes to mpg.

With standard 33" A/Ts, 1" lift, no active radiator grills (not sure about 25' model year), and 3.92 axle, you will always be 20% - 30% lower than most other trims.
 
The E rated tires that come on the Rebels weigh 17 pounds per tire more then the standard 20" or 22" tire.
