Nothing has been released and US figures are calculated in different ways but if you take that Hawaii road test where they averaged 34 US mpg that works out to be about 40mpg although I think they were taking it easy. mpg is best if you do more city driving than high speed motorway journeys.

mpg for city driving would probably be awesome if you drove it "right".

sure you can use only the electric engine for speeds up to 40 mph?

You could get unlimited mpg on a short journey running only on batteries below 40mph. However the average will come down once the engine has to start to charge the batteries.

Not sure where they got this from but it makes interesting reading anyway
