A hypermiler will beat the numbers pretty easily as I'm finding out.

My 2012 Volt is rated for 35 miles of range, and that's what the car showed on the display the first few times I fully charging it.

Fast-forward a couple of months and it now shows a 45 mile range after a charge, and this morning I drove 19.1 miles to work and it shows 28 miles of range left.

In 1,500 miles I've increased the lifetime mpg from 107 mpg to 112 mpg and the car had 51K miles on it when I bought it.
