On a pure highway trip, I get about 26 MPG at about 80MPH. It climbs to about 28 if I do 70, but that doesn't happen very often. On a normal tank of gas, I get about 21 with about a 60/40 city/highway split. It will be highly dependent on your right foot.

On 3 or 4 360 mile trips (without traffic), I get 28 to 30 and that's hitting 100+ in some stretches. I was amazed the first time i checked my trip computer. Powerful and efficient!
