Default I bought the 2019 Signature

waited for the Signature to become available and bought it last month. Liked the 2018 GT but imo it lacked power and ventilated seats (live in Arizona).
the 2019 Signature offers all that and more. I think the drive is amazing, very quiet and smooth with lots of power.

I think for me the only thing I disike about the 2019 with turbo is the below average (,compared to others in the same class ,) fuel economy .. and then if you want to real horsepower you have to use premium fuel which then makes the fuel economy thing even worse...not the mpg..but the cost to fill the tank and then STILL have below average fuel economy .

So no chance that running premium will increase fuel economy even if your foot is light?

The torque is the same, regular or premium. It’s just top power that is less on regular. With a turbo engine you don’t use top power (high rpm) a lot because of the high torque available at low rpm.
You have to compare the mpg with other cars that are AWD and about the same weight.

No because the torque is the same on regular or premium fuel. There’s no real reason to use premium.
