I bought my Hybrid in January '08 and have about 4,000 miles on it. I took a 640 mile trip last weekend and averaged 46.1 mpg on the way out and 48.7 on the way back. Not too shabby!

Many thanks to the above posters. I heard that the Prius was good on the city streets, not as good on the highway, but the honda hybrid was the opposit, in getting better highway mileage and less so for city. Must now look again at the 09 model or wait for the new hybrid offering later next year. Thank you guys |

| I am on waiting list for an 08 Honda Hybrid. I will be selling my 06 Accord. Is the 40 mpg fairly accurate? Actually I would be pleased with 35 mpg. I get only 25 on my Accord with a 4 cyl engine. Will I be sorry? I buy new when mileage gets over 30,000. Most of my driving is in city type stop & go traffic. Help! Would I be better off with a regular Civic EX? | |

An Accord with 30kmi on the odo will last a long time before it starts costing money in repairs. An Accord 4-cyl is a pretty effcient car. If you trade it in on a Civic Hybrid, you will be competing with all the overwrought buyers who must have one of the highest mpg cars available, even if it doesn't make economic sense for them. |
