    MPG getting better,

    I took a 100 mile round trip with my 2012 Prius C II when
    it had around 600 miles on the odometer. The MPG hovered
    around 52 and occasionally crept just over 53. I took
    the same trip this week with 2000 miles on the odometer
    and the MPG was mostly well above 53 and hit 55.1. This
    was on a freeway with the cruise control set at 65 and
    almost all level terrain.

    Anyone else have this experience?

    Try slowing down only 5 mph you'll see a LOT more.

    And mileage should improve, bit by bit, as the car is broken-in.
