I got 42.5 MPG in pure highway mileage. I live in Seattle with lots of hills and get anywhere from 25 to 32 in mostly city driving.

the best i have acheived is 40 mpg on average, and that is driving very easy 50/50 highway/city, tire pressure is checked every 2 weeks
i don't understand how some can get better mileage in the city, driving hard, are some of us not doing the math properly or can there be that much variation with the same car? |

Thought I'd add this report:
Yaris sedan - automatic For a 166 mile stretch of highway (I86 through New York State, so quite hilly), I used 3.76 gallons, which is about: 44.1 mpg (or 5.32L per 100km). Most of it was at 70mph except for a 20 mile stretch of construction at 50mph. I had the air conditioner on for only a couple of minutes. The trunk was full. I'm pretty impressed by this little car (assuming I calculated everything correctly, and the trip meter and gas pumps were all functioning properly). I'll have to measure it again on my next trip and see if it compares. |

My last highway trip I drove 710kms on 38-39 litres.
My last city fill was 31L on 478kms. I will say that I live in Saskatchewan, and there are virtually NO hills at all, though the highways are crappy enough that there is a lot of slowing and accelerating on the highway. |

Toyota engineers are recommending settings for 1 thing only - safety. They have to assume everyone that drives the car shouldn't really have a license, so they have to make all settings super-conservative so that the morons don't kill themselves and Toyota doesn't get sued. No one ever recommended over-inflating tires. Tire manufacturers know more about their tires than Toyota does. They know what is safe, and what the tires will handle. Using the maximum pressure of a tire will not cause uneven tire wear as the manufacturers have created the tires to run at that setting. It is always best to trust the manufacturers of a component over the manufacturer of the entire car.

another thing to take into account. Is the gas stations you fill at. I just filled half my tank and found I am now only getting 36 miles to the gallon. My last three half fillups came out to 40 miles to the gallon at another gas station. Then I went to this other gas station and wound up after the calculations of getting the 36 miles to the gallon. Could it be that gas station meters out gas differently.

Seems you have a reason to suspect foober. On the other hand, the meters are checked regularly, if I remember what I have read from elsewhere correctly. Too many factors influence our calulation results and that is why I suggest to record our numbers for the long term so that a more reliable average can be worked out.
I have not done well with my latest tank either. It yielded only about 37.3 mpg(imp) or roughly 31 mpg(US). That must have been one of my not-so-good tanks. There have been many short trips in the city and the A/C was on for a number of times. Thanks for sharing your numbers. |
