Latest mileage charts
Hi,

First I want to share the latest MPG indicator calibration data:

Ken@Japan reported a conversation with a Toyota engineer that the MPG indicator reads 5% high. From this collection of user reports, it looks like 5% is the right number. The only question in my mind is why do so many of the 'outlier' points reside above 55 mph ... another puzzle.

Using this earlier calibration constants, I'm seeing:

This was off the lot mileage.

Then looking at user reports:



So anyway, the 2010 Prius seems to be a solid performer, well capable of +50 MPG in normal operation.
