Default 2010 MPG Stats - Post Them Here

I don't own a 2010, but I think this thread is necessary, don't you? I'm sure everyone is dying to hear what kind of MPG people are achieving with their new 010s, so post them here (until the sticky appears, at least).

Most of the MPG elite will have their stats in their sigs. I'm not as "detail oriented" at tracking mine, but will certainly post my initial averages.

'MPG elite' and 2010 owner is not synonymous.

Ha ha... one wouldn't expect them to be. For those who do very well, they like to share. Nothing wrong w/ that I just don't fit that profile.

How about someone who has owned 3 generations?

Initially, I get the impression of 4 MPG improvement with the 2010 over my 2004. But with the temperature only at 61 yesterday and just 54 today... plus this Prius obviously not broken in yet... along with the design enhancements I'll experience in the winter, it could be quite a bit more.

I'll have to pull out a real camera for these pics, like John used!


I agree with John's assessment. My initial MPGs are much like what I would be getting in my '07. Why is this an improvement? Here's why:
  1. My '07 is "broken in" -- engine, tires and driver. I know how to drive it to max MPGs. The 2010 is all new.
  2. My 2010 is a Prius V with 17" wheels and brand new 215/45 R17 low profile performance tires. A 2010 with 15" wheels should get much better mileage.
  3. The 2010 has an Eco button that controls the A/C so that it will minimize draw on the battery.
  4. The 2010 has a larger ICE, so highway mileage is noticeably better.
Today, I drove 163 miles. It was a mix of city, suburban and highway driving. It wasn't hot, but it was in the 60s and low 70s. Good MPG weather, but not great. It also was raining for a portion of the day.

Still, I averaged 62.5 MPG for the day. That doesn't equate to a full tank at 62.5, but it should be relatively easy for me to get a 60+ tank with a head start like this!!

After 524 miles and the tank meter at 1/4 full I finally decided to fill it up. To my surprise it took only 7.6 gallons which is 68.95MPG.

This included one 100 mile trip to the mountains up 5,000 feet. Another 100 mile trip mainly on the freeway and the rest playing around and experimenting in the different modes.

The temperature finally warmed up.

56.2 MPG is my average now after 216 miles.

I thought of resetting my Trip-B meter shortly after leaving work. Those 16.6 miles resulted in an amazing 68.1 MPG.

I am getting average 54 mpg. Although my 07 Prius got 53 mpg most of the time so for me it is not a huge jump, except for features.
