Yes, highway mileage is superb but there is quite a noticable difference when city driving is your primary mode. City driven Corollas can expect to get anywhere around 23 mpg. Keep in mind this is all start and stop city driving. Just curious, your model is an XLE or an LE?

If you are using the trip computer, those numbers are usually inflated. It is only an estimate. Try estimating your mileage using a calculator to get the true mileage. You will know for sure after a few fill-ups. Those numbers seem a bit high with the winter fuel formulation.

Using the trip meter in the 2009, I was getting 43+ on my 60 miles per day commute to work averaged over 2000 miles of driving. I didn't check with actual fill up's, but I know it was good. I am a very conservative driver though and loved to see how high I could get it. That was at 65 MPH mostly.

I don't understand your question, could you expand or elaborate?

Mpg for 2009 for Corolla LE 27-35
Mpg for 2010 26-34
I was wondering why. I did notice that they changed the tire for 2010 from good years to bridgestones

I think I read something in ToyotaNation about the Engine Control computer programming being changed, and that changed the fuel mpg. Maybe someone here can explain?

I have a 2009 corolla purchased new 10 months ago, I travel about 45 mi day and frequently use cruise control, and get 39 mpg. Not many street lights to stop at though. I must say that if i don't use cruise control the numbers are closer to 34 or 35 mpg, I get much more smooth ride up hills if i click into cruise, seems to hold at the speed instead of a constant up / down shift. If i travel on flat freeways on cruise set at 68 mph I get 60 + mpg it is great! I have a LE 4 cl. automatic

2010 Corolla mileage by dsorgnzd

My 2010 Corolla LE (1.8 automatic) has averaged 37.7 mpg overall for its first 2000 miles. That is based on actual gallons purchased and actual miles driven, not the indicator on the instrument panel. Much of my driving is on the highway (at 65-70 mph), but I've also done quite a bit in town, and on secondary roads at 35-45 mph. Compared to the "clunker" I traded in (a minivan rated at 18 mpg combined) this is a fantastic improvement.
