At over 4600 miles I am now getting 38mpg+ on every tank and on many 60 mile commute segments breaking 41mpg with no issue at all. Air on or off. It is also an Automatic. Doing the speed limit seems to be the biggest contributor.

Odometer 1100. Mostly highway driving.
Mileage 32.7 US mpg. I hope this gets better. I've been driving about 70mph on the highway, maybe I should slow down even more.

The Canuck 5 door is pretty much the same as the xA, so I should be able to do a few mpg better.

I'm comfortsble doing 70 in my Camry surrounded by airbags. In my Yaris? NO WAY!

I'll bet 65 gets a solid improvement!

Air on?

nsmitchell · 09-08-2006, 10:45 AM

I've noticed that if I use the bathroom just before leaving to go to or from work, I get better mileage because I'm not speeding as much.

Think about it.

stuffy · 09-08-2006, 11:10 AM

you also are not as heavy :)

Greetings,

I recently passed the 1,000 mile mark on my manual trannie Yaris. I had to make a business trip to Las Vegas from my office, exactly 296 HWY miles. Filled up just before getting on the Freeway, and filled again when I arrived in Las Vegas.

Average HWY speed was 70 MPH. AC on the entire time. Average outside temperature was around 100 F degrees. Fuel milage was 39.4 Miles per US gallon.

I’m very pleased with the result. Great results for a brand new engine. Should see a small improvement once I get some more mileage on the power train.

Tom,
Do you recommend getting a Scanguage?
Where did you purchase it?
What do you use it for?
Thank you, Roadrunner

I have 1246 miles on mine after owning 1 month. Have put a total of 34.71 gals in her so far. This averages out to 35.9 MPG. Wife drives her to work mostly, which is through the country here in Indiana. Have had the AC on most of the time. I bought the vehicle for retirement to save some dollars. If it continues to get this kind of mileage then I'm a happy camper.

tds12 · 09-10-2006, 10:16 AM

I have driven a total of 1650 miles on my HB. Overall is 38.9 MPG. When the tank is 100% highway it is 41 MPG. All with the air conditioning on.

bpreston · 09-10-2006, 11:07 PM

I have almost 2000 miles on my LB and I am getting 33 1/3 with the A/C on in Arizona.

dandj · 09-11-2006, 06:02 PM

A little over 6,000 miles and a consistent 38mpg and up to over 40. I even got 37.5 @ 75-80 mph for 150 miles.

daq421 · 09-11-2006, 06:50 PM

I got the worst mileage so far on the last tank.. 34.8 mpg
I'm guessing that as I relax and enjoy the new car my right foot has gotten a bit um... heavier. (comfortable cruising speed seems to want to be 80mph... gotta watch that..) This tank I'll keep a lighter foot. However if it continues to drop I'll take it in for a check up

riceboy · 09-11-2006, 07:07 PM

Last tank was only 500km's... very disappointed.. then again... with the addition of the CAI I've been zipping around like crazy..

ketel0ne · 09-11-2006, 08:40 PM

Last tank 412.2 miles on 9.73 gal. for 42.36mpg lots of coasting and doing the speed limit, 44psi in the tires.
