Fuelly says: 27.5 MPG average for the 2006 Sentra, 72 vehicles, 1+ million miles.


31.1 MPG average for the Versa Note (2014-2019)

Obviously, hybrids are designed to maximize engine-off coasting & DFCO. Not really what this thread is about. Maybe I should have specified in the title that we're talking about "belt & pulley type" non-hybrid vehicle transmissions -- I'll clarify that.



Having said that, the older belt & pulley style CVT in my dad's '09 Civic does pretty aggressive DFCO.
