Highway Mileage by jhu1972

Drove my '08 V6 automatic coupe from Central Mass. to Philadelphia and back this weekend (600+ miles). Average 28 mpg. Some cruise control. 75-85 mph on the highway.
Typical mpg to date (14K miles) is 22. Some of that is time spent warming up car during sub-freezing weather. Pretty happy with mileage. Trip to Myrtle Beach in March will give me a longer trip to track mpg.

Hello all, just wanted to report back after getting my tires and my transmission fluid exchanged and my oil change. Overall mpg for the last tank was 23.XX. I think the oil was getting worn out and the transmission fluid was due for a change. My car seems to shift a little bit smoother and at lower rpm than before, which could contribute to the mileage being slightly better.
 
I'll post back when I get gas again, this tank seems to be doing better than average for me for this time of year. I'm sitting at just over 3/4 tank and have gone 65 miles. I could be hallucinating the shifts at lower rpm, but I think that the new fluid is helping some.

My 09 Accord has averaged 26mpg since I picked it up at the end of January. I drive a mix of highway and rural (steady 40-45mph). This past week it edged up over 27mpg.

MPG for one year by musicislife

Bought my 2008 I4 EX-L at the end of February last year. Because of mistakes by the dealer I got several free full tanks of gas and didn't start paying for gas until April. Since April 17th I've gone 10,240.8 miles and burned 376.777 gallons of gas, giving me an average of 27.18mpg. I'm averaging about 430 miles before refilling. My best mileages - five tankfulls near 28.5mpg - were between September and November (no air conditioning and before the winter gas changeover).

And your Accord is a...? Coupe/Sedan? Trim Level? Engine? Transmission? It'd be most helpful to know.

It's an 09 sedan LX-P with auto transmission and 4cyl engine. I talked to the service department tonight at the owner's clinic. I questioned the mileage and they said when the weather gets warmer and the winter gas is no longer being sold it should increase to at least 30mpg based on my driving. I'll keep checking it and let you know if/when it improves. On the plus side, at the owner's clinic I received a package of 3 bottles of cleaning supplies. One bottle of carpet cleaner, one of vinyl/leather cleaner, and the 3rd was glass cleaner.

My last tank returned 30.2 mpg, 80-85% hwy. With over 9,000 miles now, it feels like the engine is breaking in nicely and loosened up a bit.

It does improve alot, mine does for sure, got 15.8 pure city last fill up pure city back and forth to work 2 miles from the house one way. When it get hot and the fuel changes it goes up to around 18 mpg. The gas mileage is horrible in this car I'm really disapointed 8,000 one year old this month, this was the first full winter.
I thought I was going to get an automatic 21\22 city because it was a Honda boy was I mislead, my 04 Malibu V6 got the same mileage in the winter. When the lease is up in two years I'm out of there.
