    I got my Prius c2 on March 31. First fill up today with two bars left on the fuel gauge. Lots of short trips of less than five miles. Put in 8.074 gallons with 381 miles on the odometer. Trip A shows 45.3 mpg. I calculate 47.2 mpg. I think I'm really gonna like this car!

    Good to know. I drive my C for long commute and average getting 56 mpg. When I drive in town, the 45 mpg reading gets me thinking if I am doing something wrong. Now I know what to expect driving in town. Thanks for sharing. :thumb: I like mine very much. :)

    Yeah driving in town should get "around" 50,
    but with alot of people used to gas on or brake on (always people behind u)
    then sometimes it goea down a bit.

    Just drove 10 miles with a bit gunning up the hills, due to rush hour..
    .i still managed to get 66.0 using a lot ev zone since there is always the down hill to regen

    Get up to speed on flats then take it to the line, staying in ev to keep speed....
    works wonders:)
