Forget Real World Prius MPG numbers Let's forget this whole forum. Instead how about a new fourm called "Prius MPG Real World Numbers Compared to Ruking's Golf TDI unbeatable MPG numbers and Always Unbeatable Numbers? How's that for a new Forum Title? OK maybe not?
#765 of 767 User Mileage Reports from EPA Web Site by bwilson4web Sep 27, 2009 (5:33 am)
One of the good things about the EPA mileage web site, www.fueleconomy.gov is the collected MPG by vehicles: 40.2 MPG - 16 Jetta TDI owners, manual (2009 data) 40.3 MPG - 24 Jetta TDI owners, automatic (2009 data) 51.6 MPG - 46 Prius 2010 owners, automatic (2010 data) Statistically, we have enough user reports to have confidence in the reported values.

Replying to: bwilson4web (Sep 27, 2009 5:33 am) Yes those figures support a conclusion that is very self-evident. But not evident enough to indicate that if I drove a VW TDI my figures would be significantly lower due to me driving mainly in stop and go city traffic. While my Prius gets great mileage whether I drive in stop and go traffic or the highway. In otherwords with my Prius great mileage is not as dependent on what routes I travel on as with a VW TDI.
