Yeah, she drove my CVT insight for a week and averaged 56 MPG. Accelerate at about 1800-2000 RPM and let it get in top gear early, about 40 MPH. The torque converter locks up by the time you clear an intersection, more like a clutch than a converter. I didn't coast in neutral in her Rogue, it was brand new and I didn't want to give Nissan any excuse to deny a warranty claim. I think the CVT is warrantied for 10 years and 120k miles. Only mode was to air up the tires.
