VW made a splash with the Passat turbodiesel, able to do 700 miles on one tank of fuel. Perhaps jealous, Mercedes has recently introduced the E250 diesel, a sedan that can travel a bladder-busting 800 miles on a single tank.

Dear hlmencken3,

My 2005 E320 CDI regularly goes 600 miles on a tank, plus or minus. In mixed driving, I average 30 mpg, but on one roundtrip from the Annapolis area to Ocean City, Maryland, I got 40 mpg, even with stop-and-go traffic in the Easton - Cambridge area, at speeds of 65 mph - 75 mph.
