The 2012 Verano is about the same size and weight as the Chevrolet Cruze sedan. Yet while much of the Cruze lineup makes do just fine, GM decided to install a larger 2.4-liter four in the Verano. That gives the Verano a smoother, more confident character than it would likely have with the Cruze's 1.4-liter turbo engine, but its gas mileage isn't nearly as good.
At an EPA-rated 21 mpg city, 31 highway, the Verano's gas mileage is, however, better than nearly all luxury-brand sedans its size (except for hybrids like the Lexus HS 250h and Lincoln MKZ Hybrid).
Conclusion
Gas mileage of the 2012 Verano is about middle-of-the-road for this size of sedan.
