In my BRZ a/t I am also getting low mpg, around 22-24mpg (fuelly calculated). I driven 50/50 city/highway. This is with 18" wheels, sticky tires (large diameter), stock intake, hks exhaust and stock tune. I had the injen for about a week also and the mpg did not change. Even with those slight mods, I should probably be getting a higher mpg.
I've also been driving a stock/ tuned manual FRS for about a week , and with similar driving, I've been getting about 25-27mpg (trip computer). Bob @Drift-Office noticed this and confirmed it was odd to have such low mpg. He's looking into it. Part of the problem may be my driving style,I am usually around the 3-5k rpm before I shift and I am heavy on the throttle. Sometimes I'll put it in "Camry" mode to drive more conservatively. |

I get about 25-26 mpg between fill ups. I usually fill it up at a quarter of a tank and don't like letting it get any lower (Just a habit I've always had) and that gets about 220 or so miles. I don't drive like crazy, but I'm also not the slowest driver around and my commute takes me on slow interstate traffic, and slow city traffic with a lot of lights both ways. It's probably the agressive starting between stops that does it in for me.

I go a minimum of 300 so far, I think I waited till 320 on my last fill up and it filled 11.7 gallons. I've not gone below 28 avg so far either but I'm not riding the peddle, just commuting.

I average over/under 30mpg and I fill at 300. I could press it for well over 300 but I'm only ever doing stop/go city driving.

I go up a lot of hills on my commute, I'm getting about 200 miles per tank, filling up about once every 7 days. A lot of my commute is <30MPH during the week, and every morning involves stop lights, hills, and more.
I also have an AT, no mods whatsoever. 91 gas of course.

According to the mpg gauge I am getting between 28-31 mpg. Filling up on quarter tanks with a lot of highway commuting. I will start to double check the mpg at the next couple fill ups.

In town I only ever get about 17 to 18mpg. On the highway I get between 30 and 40. My guess is my work commute is about 2 miles from the house filled with stop lights the entire way. If I could do the drive with no stopping my in town average would be much higher.

Just as a follow-up to my post, I am basically amazed and happy with the mpg. I had a Ford Focus 2012 previously that claimed higher mpg (28/40) but for some reason I was always averaging 28 with a mix of street and highway. I expected to average higher since I was on the freeways pretty often. I've had 34+ easy when mostly on the freeway with the FR-S.
