The car feels great on the road and I'm glad I got the hatchback. I have the 203a package with auto in sonic blue.



What speed were you driving to achieve 50 mpg? What hypermiling techniques did you use, if any? I'm averaging around 43 mpg in my 2012 Focus S sedan so far, and am always looking to improve my gas mileage. Thanks.
