The sedans and hatches tend to be a lot cheaper than the wagons for some reason.

What are the real world fuel consumption figures for a 2.3 litre Mondeo?
Not sure, but Redbook lists 6.8 L/100km highway and 14.1 L/100km city. Combined is 9.5L/100km.

It could be the weight of the car with a smaller motor that causes the higher fuel consumption. The big selling point for the wagon I think is the large cargo area - both length and height.
