Actual experienced real world fuel mileage MPG?
Now that some of you are getting your cars, can you report on the actual, real-world mpg's you're experiencing?

Yeah, i got 24 on my first tank, but i think it's because the 9 miles that were on the car when I got it were from the guys at the dealer flogging it to and from the auto detailer and the gas station. If I can get 28 mpg with this car I will be very happy

if you guys don't mind sharing with the rest of the internet, join fuelly.com. tracks a bunch of mpg related stats and you can see how you compare against others. one nitpicky thing is that there's no distinction between mt/at.

I believe I'm up to about 160 miles on my tank and it looks to be about ~27.4 MPG (that's what it says on the meter currently). This is for manual transmission! Most of my commute is a stretch of highway, only times I hit city traffic is when I leave at a bad time of the day.
I know MT has this feature (AT probably does too) where if you turn the gear selector display on (that g-ON/g-OFF setting) it will not only show you what gear you are in but also flash a little up arrow next to it a few times when you 'should' shift for optimal MPG. It's very subtle and doesn't distract you but if you're looking for it, it's there.

I am four tanks in, and my average is 32.6 mpg. Far better than I expected. My car is a manual, and my driving has been primarily commuting -- with a blend of freeway, surface streets, and rush hour stop-n-go.
I'm very pleased. |
