Yeah, about 6% difference (I assume you used 87 octane E10). If you had used 87 octane 100% ethanol-free E0, your MPG might have been 52 indicated, 52 calculated. Our two Elantras tend to give more accurate car computer to pencil/paper results burning E0, compared to using (not burning efficiently) E10.
