    Just noticed 2022 Prius has a 58/53 mpg rating, is it me or did that get higher from other Gen 4 Priuses? Just curious, it does seem more inline to actuals if you're not flooring it all the time.

    Yep, my 2016 Gen 4 is only rated 52/48. That's about what I get on average if I'm not paying attention, so it seems accurate.

    I'm seeing no change in either the ECO or the Regular version from two years ago:

    That marketing theme has been stuck in your head for a very long time. The last regular Liftback model (excluding the AWD variant) with "just" 50 MPG was for model year 2015.

    check to see if you have ECO mode turned on or the Normal mode. I have 2017 and my average MPG is around 64

    Unspoken, that ECO is "better"? Not sure myself.
