Like Peasodos, I get 35 to 37 on highway. Then infinity at stoplights since the engine shuts off. Where I live, the stoplight example feels like every 1/4 mile. Just think if the world didn’t have stoplights and we could cruise around in the sweet spot of 50 mpg all the time. No one would ask how the city mpg or highway mpg is. Cause the answer would always be the same, “great”.

18 RWD F Sport, in flat South Florida, I typically get 21-22 mpg per tank (suburbia driving in Palm Beach county) . The best I got on a trip which was mostly highway was 24.7 mpg, but there was some flirting with triple digits which does impact the mpg quite a bit.

About the same for me in FL. Around town mix is about 21.7mpg. Highway at 75+ occasional trip up to 90 is around 25mpg. Babying it on the highway with cruise around 65-70 is easily 28+mpg

Joking aside, the best I've observed with my AWD is around 25-27 for highway driving.

do you use the estimate off the console? i actually use the trip computer and the amount of gas pumped to check mine. i know it is accurate because i work out of town, i leave the plant after my shift, get gas and drive the 5 hours home, then fill up immediately and calculate the mileage. im also **** about tire pressure and i dont really speed. these are important factors

Each summer I take a 400 mile all highway trip in my AWD model. On my 15, I'd always get 28 mpg on that trip. On my 19, I got 29 mpg. I am more than pleased with those numbers.

Around town and with a general mix of suburban traffic, I generally get around 20-21. I've been as low as 16 and as high as 23 on the mix.
