I have been searching the site and the internet to find out what the differences were in the 2013 motor compared to 07-12. According to specs the HP went up 6 to 386 on the RWD models, and MPG dropped by 3 for city and highway. However other sites show the MPG staying the same. Has anyone gone from earlier to later models and noticed a significant difference in power or MPG? Did they tune it differently? I did notice that some reviews only showed a difference of 1 MPG between RWD and AWD in the 2013, but it appears as though it was due to the RWD MPG going down closer to the AWD. Not a huge issue either way, more curiosity than anything. Sorry if this has been answered before.

 

I went from 2007 to 2013. No difference in power, but I feel that 2013 gets slightly better gas mileage. No comparative test, just seems that way, and I watch the mileage pretty close. Also, no changes in driving pattern or routes between the two.

 

I also went from 2007 to 2013. MPG is less, power the same.
