Hold up there--those numbers are the G3 EPA highway rating vs. the G4 Eco EPA combined rating. Apples to apples:

G3: 48mpg highway
G4: 50mpg highway (4.2% improvement)
G4 Eco: 53mpg highway (10.4% improvement)

G3: 50mpg combined
G4: 52mpg combined (4% improvement)
G4 Eco: 56mpg combined (12% improvement)
