With that said; "Yes" the first picture is all in SPORT mode.
So from the start to up the hill, I lost 2.6MPG average but gained all back coming downhill with mixtures of different mode.
The car handle rather well in ECON mode coming down hill. Forgot to take the corner using SPORT mode.  But it handle itself well uphill with all the twists and turns.
Now if we have a little more HP under the hood it would be more exhilarating. Hence, turbo charge this baby.  But as stock vehicle goes, this is a fun vehicle. Switch from Sport to Econ for fuel economy which ever you desire. |
I guess what I am asking is this: This would be a commuter car. I drive 40 miles in each direction on flat central California valley ground on two lane and interstate roads and highways with the exception of 1 1/12 miles of hilly switch backs. I am just trying to figure out MPGs with picture proof to support my story to the Missus
. I think mostly I would be in ECON mode and hit SPORT through the switch backs.
