Volt Stats! Tracking real world usage of Chevy Volts in the wild... has a wealth of Volt efficiency & usage patern info from a self-selected group of hundreds of owners. (Likely the types of owners who care about driving efficiency, I bet.)
One of the stats they show is what mileage people are getting in CS ("charge sustaining" - ie. battery depleted, internal combustion engine-on) driving.
Looks like the median for CS driving is roughly 35 mpg (US). There are dozens of drivers getting above 40, and a handful over 50.
