Depends on gearing really. If the power output is similar to the current gen and the gears dont chang expect to see 15-22 depending on how aggresively you drive.
I wouldnt expect it to be better than the current gen realistically.

15-22 is a joke. That's also assuming its the same engine, which we now know it is not.

The g37 is not going to be a toyota prius, be realistic here

If the '08 Coupe MT has EPA fuel economy numbers of 20/27, that represents a phenomenal increase in fuel economy when you take into account these factors:
1. Increase in HP from 298 to 330 +/-
2. Increase in torque from 260 to 270 ft-lbs.
3. Increase in curb weight of anywhere between 90-140 lbs depending upon which trim level.
4. For MY 2008 cars, the EPA is introducing a revised methodology for fuel economy testing which will yield generally lower, more realistic numbers. So a MY '08 car with 20/27 MPG numbers would have been rated at 23/29 MPG under the old methodology.
So the new valvetrain is allowing an engine with about 6% more displacement to produce 4% more torque and 11% more horsepower while increasing fuel economy by 21% on a car that is 3-4% heavier. WOW!!!

I amazing how infiniti can make an engine with more strokes, more hp, more torque and still manges to make the engine more fuel efficient than the last gen. Especially G37, the car is heavier than last gen too!!

Infiniti can say whatever it wants. until you actually drive the car then you can make all the claims you want.
seeing how its a bigger engine, heavier car, i dont see it getting 'better' gas mileage then the current coupe.
