That’s really low. Have you watched your infotainment energy screen to see if your battery is charging up? And then see it using your battery?

 

Really really low. I get 600+ miles per tank if I'm easy on the throttle and around 570 miles per tank at 80+ MPH.

 

Likewise - My Corolla is 2 months old today and so far I'm in the 600 mile range. MPG has not dropped below 58 since I bought it. Mostly around 64- 65 range. Once I accidently had it in "B" and the first time I let up on the gas going down hill I thought I'd broken something. It's a great car that replaced my 11 year old Yaris.

 

Just an update.
I had to make a 50 mile round trip down through central Texas on a very lightly traveled road. So I filled it - reset the computer and coasted down every hill I could making every effort to gently use the accelerator. Speed got pretty slow a few times but they don't call this the hill country for nothing. So..... round trip mileage came out to 87.3. I took a picture of the dash because I figured my breakfast crowd wouldn't believe the numbers. They didn't ! About 2 weeks later took same trip but forgot to reset the computer at the start. Only managed 81.6 that time.

 

I'm getting around 61-62 in the summers here (summer fuel). Winter fuel and snow tires I'm around the 52-54 range.

 

Well.. after my 2nd Toyota Hybrid I finally realized I could join a Toyota forum! lol. I had a 2017 Toyota Prius II, but my 2020 Toyota Corolla Hybrid has exceeded all expectations and has been a great experience. While for quite a while I was managing in the 63 - 65 mpg range in all conditions in LA, recently I have been getting over 68 mpg average! In addition, everything about it has been better than the Prius - exterior and interior look, firmer/ better performing braking, firmer/ better performing suspension. This vehicle does not perform or drive at its price point at all. Moving to a Camry Hybrid SE or XSE soon, but would be excited to get another one of these and too bad they don't have Corolla Hybrid SE available in the US. In short, I would say the best overall automobile I have ever owned for it's hell traffic fighting ability in all worst conditions/ drivability.

Keep in mind that the weather and terrain here in LA are favorable as in it does not get too cold and it is relatively flat compared to other cities, but the traffic can be some of the worst around which Toyota hybrids love to battle. The Prius also torched spec mpg numbers as it scored in the high 60's average. Lastly, I primarily have been using the low octane grade of fuel, but a few times, put Shell V Power, etc.

 

I am thinking of selling my 08 Corolla for a new hybrid. It seems everyone is very satisfied and the mpg exceeds the rating. How is the driver assist? Does it keep you in the lane?

 

It's pretty garbage. The only worthwhile feature IMO is the lane change warning (light in the wing mirrors). Adaptive cruise is sub-par but typical for the vehicles class.

 

It basically drives itself with cruise control on. Toyota is pretty Toyota logic when it comes to things. If you turn off with the door open, it will beep at you. It does not like you at all if you move it 1mm with the door open.

If you get out of lane with proper settings it will beep at you. It steers you along like it drives itself, although roughly vs how most people drive. I have the standard following setting on cruise control which is super conservative and actually can be somewhat dangerous as it will suddenly brake when getting behind a car that is pretty far off and you might have other cars right on your tail. I haven't adjusted it, and don't use it much. Maybe I am in the class of owners that has not really one of the 1,000s of pages of owner's manuals, but scored high on mpg because... weather and driving style.

 

The biggest factor on mpg next to driving style is weather, and then I would say terrain/ hills. I am getting over 67 mpg still off my most recent service and my worst average was 63. Move to Miami?

 

FL is on the list, but never Miami

 

Is your Corolla a Hybrid?

 

So far,I’ve gotten 560 miles to the tank with 1.5 gallons of gas left in the tank.

Not bad... With my non-Hybrid, non-CVT, non-Sedan, I get up to about 525 miles on a tank with about 1.0 gallon left while cruising at 65 mph in the summer.

 

My range consistently shows above 700 miles, but I haven't done an ODO calculation. Average is typically from 65 - 67 mpg.

 

What year and model of vehicle do you have? Seems like 61 mpg is the best I can get and that is combined city and highway.

I am considering trading for a New Prius Prime.

 

515.. 2nd tank

 

That's awesome Slimy! I really think if I had minimal elevation change and best weather here in SoCal the Baby Wraith could clock in over 700. Of late I am still running high 66/ just over 67 mpg, but I never have really bothered to note a true ODO calculation.

Toyota hybrids love no elevation change or downhill only lol and nice weather that is just so like the 3 bears story. Also, they tend to eat heavy traffic for breakfast, lunch, and dinner as long as it is not too parking lotish.

 

There are no hills in Myrtle Beach so that is a plus. Overall I am well satisfied with my Corolla But the wife wants me to trade it for a Prius Prime so will probably trade it. Problem is dealers can’t seem to get any new Prius Primes and when the do they are already sold sight unseen before they get to the lot.

 

You could deal actively, put in a deposit and wait, or work with a broker. There is a lot of discussion on the chase over at the Camry Hybrid page...

 

604 miles last summer. averaging around 500 in winter with winter tires. eye-ball averaging around 560-570 outside of winter with non-winter tires

 

8 month (Oct 2021 - May 2022, 5 months with snow tires) 32,000 km with average 4.0L/100km (58 mpg). Right now in June my last 2 tanks were average 3.5L/100km (67 mpg).

 

39 MPG average on highway at 90 mph average. Never drove past 450 miles on a full tank.

 

...highway at 90 mph average....

Didn't know that's possible/sustainable/normal.
That poor hybrid car....

 

80-85mph.. I’ll get 45ish mpg. This little car is impressive for $25k!

 

Just purchased a 2023 Corolla hybrid xle.
have about 170 miles on it , live in Michigan IP, fairly flat , most all driving at 55-60 mph.
temperature has been about 30-35 F
shows 57 mpg. I was expecting a bit more but it’s still chilly ..

 

Betty's first tank was 56 MPG, suburban commute duty (542 miles, 9.68 gals to fill) This included an hour or so of 'on' time to go through the settings and device pairing. Usual FL drive with A/C on all the time.

 

I'm looking to purchase a 2023 Toyota Corolla LE Hybrid and I'd like to know what kind of gas mileage are you getting in mixed driving conditions? I drive like a grandpa and my commute is 60%city, 40% highway.

 

I get 123123884023543754 mpg in the city, and 234987543908503948504958 on the highway

Seriously dude go look at the manufacturer's specs

 

OK , you purchase the vehicle . You get better Fuel usage than others and worse than others . What does that mean ?
Absolutly nothing as you will not get the same thing all the time just like most of us .

 

MOST people will get better than the EPA estimated MPG for city/highway/combined.
Since you report you commute is mostly city, that will help increase you MPG.
Driving highway hurts the hybrids some, but you say you drive SLOW, so this too will help.
Bottom line, you will most likely come out ahead of the EPA estimated MPG sticker.

Where you live (flat lands vs mountains) and climate (4 seasons vs 1.5 season in CA/Vegas), will have a big impact on MPG too.

Don't go by the computer display of the instanteous MPG. Go old school and calculate number of miles driven, divided by number of gallons pumped. Try to be consistent about refueling, say every 2nd Saturday or every time the gas gauge shows 1/4tank. Refueling consistently and calculating your MPG will give you a true real world average.

 

It's a true 600 mile to a tank car. I put 300 miles on mine so far and it's at a half tank.

I'm sure the MPG will be a lot worse if you are driving uphill through mountainous regions or on multi hour long 80mph drives where the hybrid battery doesn't get a chance to get recharged by braking or coasting. The more stop and go driving you do, the better the MPG you'll get.

I've gotten 628 miles on it between fillups before. I don't like to run that low but I was heading home from billings MT and didn't stop to fill up. I was sure I was going to run out of gas but I didn't. I put in 11.2 gallons at fillup and at the time it was on relatively new tires and dry conditions.

 

Expect approximately the advertised mileage or a little better and expect it to vary with conditions and drivers.

We have a 2019 standard Prius which might have the same hybrid set up. At 76,0000+ mi. we're getting ~ 63mpg (indicated) at 63mph, this is after the car is thoroughly warmed up which might require ~ 15min. depending on ambient temperature, average speed, etc. Gas mileage above that speed goes down (wind resistance) and improves when going slower. MPG ranges into the mid-high 70's in city traffic and also on trips of 60-100mi. or so in New England and Upstate NY, rolling hills, where speed limits are between ~ 55mph between towns and 25-30mph going through towns. Driving 80mph all day on Interstates gives anywhere between mid-40's to mid- or high 50's depending on wind speed and direction and whether pavement is dry or wet and rough vs. smooth (wet knocks things down 2-3 mph). The mileage has been consistent since the first tankful. It has two drivers, one gets ~ 5-10% better mileage (smoother speed changes, plans ahead) than the other. Indicated mileage is ~ 1-2mpg higher than that calculated from fill ups and odometer, we haven't calibrated the odometer.

All of this is with OEM low rolling resistance Dunlop Enasave 01 tires which give us ~42,000mi. to 4/32in. tread and over inflated 2-3psi (and more when carrying full loads). After the first set wore out we tried Michelin Defenders and immediately saw 18% reduction in mileage. After this persisted for ~ 3 weeks we turned them in for new Enesaves (Discount Tire) and immediately got our mileage back. I initially was concerned about performance and durability of the Enasaves (the first generation of low rolling resistance tires were terrible in rain), but these have made a few very firm stops in heavy rain and withstood miles of Forest Service roads with sharp pointed rocks - other tires probably are tougher and many last longer. The tires haven't seen snow and ice.
