My family purchased a Honda Civic Hybrid 2008 a few weeks ago - the mpg is disappointing - the first three
weeks the mpg was between 25.0 and 27.6 ; now on the
third tank of gas the mpg is 34.2 plus or minus 2 points; the sticker and various webs sites claim that
this car is supposed to get 40 to 45 mpg city and
highway - we can’t figure out the problem ; the dealer
checked out the car found nothing wrong with it ; is there a special way to drive this car ? Other civic
hybrid owners are getting 45 to 52 . Help JAT
