So I bought a 2012 Volt partly due to the opinions collected here. I do like the car, lots of fun and much better than the prius, in my opinion.

So after some driving I have noticed that the torque app only tells me that I get between 30 and 38mpg when in gas only mode. I don't want to believe that, and I don't really, my cts could get 30mpg cruising at 60mph.
However, today on the way home I traveled 35.2 miles and only burned 0.7 gallons with an indicated average of 48.7mpg while keeping a steady 60 mpg without drafting, though I did have a significant tail wind around 15mph.

Interestingly, the car seemed to be pulse and gliding in that the generator would kick on and off as the battery was charged and discharged. I need to find a more accurate way to see instant mpg.

Does anyone have experience with that? I'll be scouring and likely posting over at gm-volt in the near future.
