I went to visit a friend yesterday - 235 miles each way. It was supposed to be a three-day visit, but it was just two hours, instead. I was driving 65 - 80 MPH on Interstates in very heavy rain and very heavy traffic, with some hills and stopped traffic. I had set the trip odometer before I left, and when I got home, it was showing 47.5 MPG on my 2015 EX with 73,000 miles on it. That was quite a bit better than I had expected, but I'm not complaining. I didn't do anything unusual, like drafting trucks or shutting it off going down hills. I used cruise control a lot, but not all the time.

It's a shame that we can't buy new Fits. A friend is looking for one, but there's nothing available. The CR-V is bigger, heavier, more expensive (with more profit for Honda), and more thirsty.

EDIT: My son's 2020 Fits gets better mileage than mine, but I don't know how to add the Fuelly footnote to this page.

 

That's kind of surprising that good of MPG considering driving in rain really saps MPG and obviously heavy traffic, plus your high speeds.

Trip computer is typically off too. Did you do the math after a fill up to see how close it was?

 

I'll have to fill the tank to see how much gas it used from beginning to end. I realize the car's electronics are a bit optimistic.

 

If it's better than you expected, why would you complain?
