We are considering buying the Eco w/ M6 tranny. Its main competitor is the Prius.
We know the Prius will do better - the question is how much better. We do about 80% of our driving on country roads (speed limit of 55, stop at a stop sign every mile or two), and 20% suburban.
Anybody want to estimate what kind of actual mileage we would get?
For those of you seeing 40+...are most of your miles on highways at 65+ MPH?
Thanks!
I don't know what kind of mileage you'd get, but I do know hybrids get optimum fuel mileage in city driving. If you're driving in the country mostly 55 mph your better off with a regular gas car. It'll be cheaper and fuel consumption difference will be minimum.
