 I've had the vehicle for six weeks. I average 30.1 MPG, combined city/highway. Drive to work is 15 miles in Sacramento, CA.  If I push acceleration above 50 kW and do not anticipate stops ahead, mileage drops below 28 MPG.  If I accelerate modestly and keep the power at or below 25 kW during acceleration, I consistently get better than 30 MPG overall. I verified the readings on the vehicles MPG meter at the gas pump - hand calculations.  This is a fun vehicle to drive and the challenge is to out do the mileage from the day before.  If you spend a lot of time driving above the hash marks on the kW meter, expect worse gas mileage - simple math.  Fly like a rocket, pay for the gas!
