Is the average MPG the same as the EPA rating?
There are so many variables that the idea of an absolutely accurate rating of average mpg is laughable. But to new-car buyers, it often feels as if the joke is on them. A key element in assessing the EPA rating for a vehicle’s average fuel economy (EPA combined) is the split between highway and city driving.
When did the EPA start measuring gas mileage?
For manual-transmission cars, there are standard EPA shift points, which are broadcast on the driver’s screen as well. In 1972, when regular gas was 35 cents a gallon, test cycles were invented by the newly created EPA to measure exhaust emissions.
Which is better gas mileage city or highway?
Almost all cars and trucks deliver better fuel economy while cruising at 55 mph on the open highway than they do while stopping and starting at low speed on city streets. The EPA rating for combined mpg presumes that we drive 55 percent of the time in the city and 45 percent of the time on the highway.
When to use city and highway fuel economy tests?
For 2007 and earlier model year vehicles, only the city and highway schedules were used. Beginning with 2008 models, three additional tests are used to adjust the city and highway estimates to account for higher speeds, air conditioning use, and colder temperatures.
What should the EPA gas mileage be on a car?
The EPA says its test results are almost always very close to the automakers’ numbers. When they don’t match, a long discussion ensues. According to the rules, if the EPA retests a vehicle to assess an automaker’s results, the fuel economy should be within three percent.
What to do if Your MPG doesn’t match the EPA rating?
Hyundai and Kia issued a joint statement saying they will give customers a personalized debit card that will reimburse them for their difference in the EPA combined fuel economy rating, based on the fuel price in their area and their own actual miles driven.
How does the EPA calculate your combined mpg?
The EPA rating for combined mpg presumes that we drive 55 percent of the time in the city and 45 percent of the time on the highway. Most people simply assume that’s the case in their own driving.
