It figures. If you follow the link, the first comment that comes up boast the standard plug in hybrid "lie" fuel efficiency that measures the total miles only versus the gas used with no regard for the electricity that was also used. He boasts 61 mpgUS when the true combined MPG was 40 and MPGe was 50. So the MPG from the gas engine was really only 36 which is quite typical for the Volt. Of course he also boasts someone elses Volt that is sitting at a lifetime of 153 "liePG".
