15,000 miles and I still love this car!

If you want to safe energy, the environment, and have fun every day you drive then this car is for you! On average I add 5 gallons to my car each week after traveling 240-250 mile range. That places me in the 48-50 mpg range. I especially enjoy the quiet ride due to the low resistance design. Maintenance at 5,000 mile intervals saves on costs as well. If you learn how to drive this car (go and glide technique) you can achieve over 60 mpg. Only drawback I see is winter weather in the North affects mileage as engine is running a good deal of the time. In the dead of winter in Chicago my mileage dropped to around 40 mpg. Gas mileage improves in 50 degree or better weather. If you live in a warmer climate this car shines at its peak. But even in Chicago weather my mpg range is just fine with me. Handling and inside features are fantastic. Bluetooth, climate control and sound system are excellent. Could use a little more rear travel on seat adjustment. Car is a blast to drive!
