Yes. I've had a couple of 1100km trips, and got 18.0+km/L.

I think the last one was around 1080km on 60L of fuel (51mpg).

That's on a 3-door, however.

I am also interested in this. if you could also post your driving conditions & Speed it would help.

For the record I have an 06 RSX-S (6 spd Man, 15,000 Mi) and on a recent trip averaged 33 Mpg with a high of 35 MPG (kept it under 75MPH).
Driving was somewhat mountainous (I 81 TN- I 84 in PA) and speeds were averaging in the mid 80 MPH with periods of "somewhat higher speed, officer”.

Day to day driving in modest traffic @ 2,500’ elevation I get 28-29 MPG (90% stoplight traffic 10% high speed highway-85 MPH).

I was thinking about ditching my RSX for a Fit or Yaris but so far I have been rather unimpressed with the Yaris's economy (not enough data on the Fit so far).
I am hoping once we get more broken in Yaris (or is that Yari ?) and more driver reports we will get a better picture of real world economy.

My driving was all over flat land (Saskatchewan/Alberta), but my speed varied wildly from 100km/hr - 140 km/hr depending on what type of higway I was on.

I can tell you that on my last fill, my Yaris got 710kms of in-city driving at about 55mpg.
