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.
If, during econ you had it in cruise (not sure if you're able to on the commute), you'll see 40-45ish, if not higher. Same if you have a sensitive foot, lower if it's stop and go.

I know that's not picture proof, but it's my real world experience. And I drive my car pretty spiritedly.
