Best MPG I've seen so far in a round trip with the Civic so far is 4.1 L/100 km = ~57 mpg US.

That's just basic ecodriving, cruising at the posted limits on secondary highways (70-80 km/h = ~45 - 50 mph) and maximizing engine-off "glides" (if you can call them that in this car) towards turns, slowdowns & stops.
