Early model Focus mpgs?
I have a 2003 Focus ZX3 that in summer might do 36 mpg in mixed driving and around 38 mpg highway. According to the sticker under the hood...this car is both a PZEV and a ULEV...meaning a California car with stricter pollution standards for the year.
A neighbor bought a 2000 Focus sedan and claims to get 38 mpg around town and 44 mpg on a long trip. No mods...high mileage(?)....no real attempt to drive for mpg???
Both cars have an auto trans and I assume the DOHC engine.
A search of the GARAGE for Focus brings up some that do almost as well..but not many....
Looks like the stricter pollution standards cost mpg?
