Transmission: CVT Wheels and tires: Dunlops (stock) Modifications to your car: No MPG-affecting mods Driving style: Mostly stick to speed limit, somewhat MPG-concious Typical Driving conditions: half stop-and-go traffic and half in-city highway driving Daily commute distance: approx 30 miles round trip Tire pressures: stock (32 psi?) Most common driving mode: Econ 6MT typical shift points: N/A Air conditioning use: At least 50%, and probably more Tell us anything special you do to get better fuel economy or anything you do that typically hurts your fuel economy: Steady pressure on the accelerator (and living with slowing down a bit on the uphills) and watching the mpg gauge. I drove most of a tank around the DC area in Sport and Normal modes, with a 38 mpg tank as a result. I do sometimes switch to Sport and have a bit more fun... |
