not all geo models get amazing mpg, every one ive seen with the 1.6L I-4 engine and 3sp auto trans are hard pressed to get better than 35
a 1.3L with the auto can push low 40s

1991 Geo Storm 4 cyl, 1.6 L, Automatic 3-spd,
Compare Old and New MPG Estimates

1997 Geo Metro 4 cyl, 1.3 L, Automatic 3-spd,
Compare Old and New MPG Estimates
