I wasn't aware of this from Honda until I read the article either.
Like most things, it's probably not a clear cut either/or situation. Lousy driving
plus a deteriorating pack would make it easy to slip to 30ish mpg.
We obviously all know that with attentive driving plus a
completely dead pack, a driver could still beat the EPA.
