If you look careful, the engine tach indicates ~1.2k rpm, the mpg readout at roughly 55mpg. I've seen this stuff on Geo metros, or Mitsubishi Mirages, doing 35-50mph, but never on any vehicle doing 75mph. It also kept that mpg rating for most of the ride. Just required extreme throttle precision, and a foot that won't move the throttle by even a single millimeter! https://youtu.be/axH4_pB8fDE

I'm going to use this thread to share information about our road trip. I think I'm going to reset Trip 1 when we leave home on Saturday and leave it alone for the duration of the trip and I'll reset Trip 2 each time we buy gas and I'll record the gas stops on Fuelly. I think I'll reset the MPG that are shared across the Empower, Engage etc screens with every 1000 miles to have a longer term fuel economy number than the per tank average on Trip 2 but less than looking at the entire trip MPGs, especially as we get closer to home. I might reset this MPG display more often too, I'm going to play it by ear for this one. Maybe I'll reset it daily to see what our MPGs are for each day of travelling or each day of driving around the city where we're staying visiting family. Hopefully this will provide valuable real world data for prospective and current owners about what the car can do at highway speeds across different types of terrain and varying temperatures.
