As EPA mpg values are often 'under-reported', and often exceeded in the real world driving, I'll reserve judgement until independent reporting comes in from third parties.
Even the EPA is transparent enough to report that 'your results may vary.'
Remember, they attach fudge-factors which attempt to correlate EPA dynamometer results to actual driving.
