View Poll Results: What's your average life long fuel economy on your AT fit ??
Like the title, select the lifelong average MPG. If the car is new please refrain from submitting a vote till you've gotten atleast 3-5 tanks worth of data. One bad tank could mess up the numbers alot. Thanks guys

I have to say, I'm glad this poll was made. It shows most people with auto are not getting the bad mileages (~26) I thought they would. My EX 120hp civic got 27 (i live in SF which is full of hills). But then, the sampling for this poll isn't big enough yet. I hpoe more people vote.
... One bad tank could mess up the numbers alot ...
Unfortunately I did vote already.
Since the average of my CVT-Jazz is on the bottom of the list (39-41 MPG), I consider it is messing up the results.
If it is possible, a Moderator may delete my vote.
Thanks.

I wish we got a cvt option. I love it on my civic hybrid. Is your jazz a 1.3l also?
I'm on my fourth tank of gas and averaging 24.7 mpg. Not good. My Civic was getting around 31.

Okay FitFreaks, here's the deal. I posted above that I was gettin' around 24 MPG. I was filling up every week. So I decided to take the advice of others and wait until my tank was down almost to empty before checking. I do mostly in-town driving and my last fill-up (just over 8 gallons) gave me a much better 31.22 MPG.

I live in the Oakland, CA hills and the MPG on my 2007 automatic Fit Sport, after 12,000 miles has averaged just below 25. The best milage has been around 37mpg on a trip to Tahoe, but around town it has been as low as 22mpg. I attibute the relatively poor fuel economy to to the hills, the stop and go nature of in-town driving and a load that generally includes one or more passengers.
i generally get 32-33, so i was right in between i went 33-35 though because i have gotten 42 mpg on a few tanks in a row when i was only doing highway driving. haven't been under 30 since my second fillup.
22, 21, and 24 mpg on the first three tanks. those tanks featured a hard break-in method of driving which was, as much as reasonably possible, either wide open throttle or zero pressure to the gas pedal.
32 and 36 mpg for the last couple of fill ups. 36 mpg was for reasonable driving, i.e. cruise control, easy acceleration, no unnecessary application of throttle.
really love this car. and MPG is only one of its high points.
