If you're talking about a 2nd gen (2009-2010) AWD, I'd say a good estimate with 90% highway would be 27ish MPG. I know I've gotten as high as 34 MPG with 100% highway in my 2009 Vibe GT which has the same engine and automatic transmission (though the GT has a 5-speed auto and the AWD has a 4-speed auto). Obviously, the numbers will be slightly less since the AWD has the extra weight of the rear differential. Your mileage will also depend a lot on how you drive. I keep my RPMs under 3000 when accelerating. Make sure tires are properly inflated. Make sure routine maintenance (i.e. oil change, etc.) is done on time. Keep any unnecessary weight out of the vehicle. Try to coast to a stop whenever possible (and safe) to do so instead of braking. These little changes to your driving habits can have a pretty significant impact on gas mileage numbers.
