    Can you please respond if you had a Gen II and are now driving a C. I would like to know how the mpg compares between the two. Only reply if you are driving the C in a similar way you drove your Gen II, similar psi, etc. Thanks in advance!

    I too would like to know if a C is better or worse in the real world compared to the GenII.

    I average pretty fair numbers in my GenII, and wonder if I might do better with the C.

    I went from a 2004 Prius to a Prius C, I drive my Prii really rough and I was having problems with my 2004 before I traded it but when it was running in its prime I was getting 40 - 42. Now with the C I'm getting 42 - 45. Which isn't a great improvement, but like I said I drive them a little rough. I've seen others post a much higher gap between the two cars.
