the days of V8s being worse on gas is outdated thinking. get with the times.
The C7 has cylinder deactivation and not exactly sure how they did their MPGs, but I wouldn't be surprised if they did it exclusively in that mode in which case their 17/19 MPG is actually quite a shame, as it's only running 4 cylinders.
